Red Quanta
If Carrie told you she reads the posts here, then she should come on the forum and tell everyone when they are going to get paid. Instead, crickets.
What better way to build credibility then to pay everyone what they are owed ?

I got an email from Carrie (!), and she said that she's trying to get Red Quanta to pay up, but they're more than four months behind pay. I guess they pay her, then she divides it out to whoever is owed. She stated that if she were to back out and say to RQ "forget it, figure out the pay yourself", nobody would get paid.
Yes, it's frustrating to wait (and wait, and wait...), but it does appear that the $$ is coming. I've now been paid twice. Still waiting on $564 myself.
FWIW, Carrie also said that she reads the posts about her and RQ, so there's that.
7star,
I have emailed Carrie multiple times, but I get nowhere with her as well. Her last attempt in 4-15 and 4-19 both times NSF from RedQuanta on PayPal.

I am owed over $200 from December. The payment date kept changing and now I am not receiving a response from the daily emails that I have sent to different people that are affiliated with the company.
I have been paid up! finally!!
@alannajm this is part of an email from RQ/Retail Quotient:
"All your payments have been cleared today and the payment would have come through 'Retail Quotient Research' which is our payment partner now in US."

@Dbatesnc "paid" as in with an eCheck or "PAID" as the eCheck cleared?
scottk4sl,
People have been complaining about Red Quanta on here a lot, so I don't think that's what did it. I think it was the involvement of the media (Daily Caller). I'll let everyone know if my e-check clears.

Could be and I have seen all of the complaints. I also read those supposed newspaper people did not have permission to pursue their articles. Did they get printed? I don't live in VA, so I have no idea.
The investigation just began, so there is no article. They were legitimately part of the investigation. I don't think anyone ever said they didn't have permission. It was just zealous moderator reporter police people that reported it because they didn't know. They did find out they actually were interns for the Daily Caller and were checking with someone to see if they had permission from DC to post on the board. It just seemed a bit presumptuous to say you telling Red Quanta you posted a complaint on a mystery shopping forum caused this when people have been threatening them with far worse for a while. However, it's possible your correct, and it doesn't really matter what caused it if everyone is actually going to get paid!
I threatened to get attorneys involved, finally got paid, and deleted my account. It’s a shame because I would have done these shops all the time, but never again with this company.
ravensr4real,
How did you delete your account? I've looked everywhere on RedQuanta and couldn't find out how to delete my account. Now that I know I will never be paid, because they have it listed that I was paid on 4-15 even though NSF came thru. I want to delete my account. Please if you could reply and let me know how you deleted your account ravensr4real.
Please.

I think after I cussed them out via VM, they did it for me.
Jimmy P,
Everyone is NOT going to get paid. Red Quanta officially says I was paid on 4-15, the date the NSF went through on PayPal. They will not pay me ever. I know that now.

Finally received an email that I will get paid by the end of the week. We'll see! Fingers crossed!
Is there a way we can all complain en masse so they're removed from the organization. They shouldn't be allowed to be apart of MSPA.
Thank you for this information. I am reporting them. I will look up the NJ laws but I'm pretty sure this is against state law.
They are already being removed from the MSPA.

Hard work builds character and homework is good for your soul.
What? They lied and said they paid you? How did they say they paid you? Write the attorney general.
I sent an invoice to to the e-mails I have via paypal. I hope it works out if not I will report them to the AG in New Jersey. This is ridiculous.
Oh well at least that is good to hear. I hope they do pay people because this is out of control.
Jimmy,
Thank you for informing us about the PayPal fees.
The amount will be adjusted in the next round of payments
Thank You

Are they recognized by MSPA-NA? I thought they weren't. I was under the impression only MSPA-Asia recognized them. No matter, MSPA-anywhere should not recognize them.
I agree payment gets 3 to 4 months delayed. Started shopping for them in September and was paid three times by RQ. At first I was skeptical but thought of doing few shops and waited for the pay. I received payments after 1 n half month. After this the payments were always delayed, and I kept getting emails from them that it will done soon, eventually I got paid for my Dec and Jan shops. So if you are okay waiting for few months to get paid these assignments are pretty good bz you there are many restaurants available and easy.

JimmyP, why are you jumping on me? I had a perfectly valid concern about two fishy, new user posts considering all of the previous shenanigans from Carrie, et al. As even you pointed out, I added a comment that I had called DC and confirmed they were interns for them, but the HR manager was not able to confirm they had permission to do the story. I cc'd my edit to the Mods as well.
How does ANY of this make me a "zealous moderator reporter police people?"
this sucks

Thank you for reading everything (thissucks) before you realize yes, they said they were paying me on 4-15 via PayPal. PayPal came back on 4-19 and said the funds were NSF (Insufficient Funds) by RedQuanta. PayPal tried paying me again 3 days later and again NSF (Insufficient Funds) by RedQuanta. On RedQuanta's website it shows I have been paid. So, yes, once again, I have NOT been paid for my November shops YET and this is NOW 5-6-19. That is OVER 6 months later.
What does this tell everyone?
