I am discouraged with IPSOS at the moment!!
I'm new to mystery shopping, and I'm loving it. So the 4th company I signed up with was IPSOS, I'm six weeks in and at first I was elated. Now things aren't looking all too great. I have applied for the Jeans shops numerous times only to find them gone several hours later. Yet they are back on the board the next day AND at a higher pay. I apply a third time and again, nothing. It makes me think that the scheduler is holding out so that they can offer a higher paying shop to a friend or family member. I may be wrong in my assumption, but we never will know.
BTW, I emailed the company asking about the situation and mentioned that I texted a scheduler with an inquiry. They replied saying that schedulers don't have time to respond to every inquiry. Anyway, they aren't very helpful. One more thing, don't try being nice, you're better off being standoffish.
