Intelli-shop phone inquiry shops

I just noticed that Intelli-shop has some new "phone inquiry" shops up that are paying $5.00. I thought I should warn shoppers who are not familiar with Intelli-shop phone shops that these are not worth the pay IMHO. These require 2 back to back phone calls to different stores and a report for each store. You have to describe the way the people you talk to handle the call and explain which one you prefer and why. They have single call phone shops that pay the exact same amount and only require 1 report. These 2 phone call shops used to pay $8.00 but IS is obviously trying to get by on the cheap this time around. Just a heads up if you're considering these.

LOL sometimes the ol' thinker works

I've applied, but yet to be accepted for two shops. I've got nothing else going on that day and the weather should be miserable.

I can understand, just consider yourself forewarned. Personally, I think they were worth more than the $8.00 they used to pay. Good luck.

I realized it was the 2 part shop AFTER I self assigned. I will not make that mistake again! $5 is worth it for the 1 shop call but not for the 2 part!

Turns out I didn't get accepted for the shops, so maybe I dodged a bullet.

I do not bother with phone shops. If they can't value one as a person to pay a decent amount, why bother.

It depends on their phone shops. Some of them, which I do at least 2-3 day require me to call into a local govt office and ask a simple question. I record the question, check a few multiple choice questions and a short sentence about my opinion of the friendliness and the associate's willingness to help me.

Some phone shops are better than others. I like doing some shops where I can sit at home, earn money, and not waste gas. But there are some phone shops that are a PIN that I won't do like the 2 phone call one mentioned above.
