They are asking to pay a 34$ membership fee to have access to over 200 jobs in my area and complete online training. Has anyone done this? Is it worth is or is thast what gets you bombarded with phone calls?? Its the link on the top of this forum page. What is the best membership to join??

Thank you for the info. I'm glad I didn't waste my time.

The only "membership" that I know of that is particularly beneficial is forum membership and gosh golly it is both free and you have done that already. Keep your money in your pocket. This work is supposed to pay YOU, not you paying for IT.

i beg to differ... slightly... the only one that i have found that is worth it to sign up for is jobslinger... its only 9 bucks a month which isnt too bad.. and sassie shop sites tend to be a bit confused when it comes to availability... for ex "anyone traveling to europe today?... we will reimburse you 10 dollars for a subway in berlin..." and yes flash that is a fake... but not far from the truth... lol

come to think of it shadowshopper charges the same but they want it all in one lump sum... letting my subscription expire there... not sure if i made the 99 bucks back... sigh...

I can't login to my account with this company either. I emailed them three times and have received no response. It is a bit of a surprise because just recently they awarded me with one of their sweepstakes prizes, a gift card to Applebees. Now for no reason that I am able to determine, I can't log in and they do not respond to email inquiries.

I don't consider what they are doing mystery shopping by any stretch of the imagination, but I figured since I am going to sign up for some stuff anyway it might as well be through them.

I cant log in either. I did nothing wrong and they do not answer my emails either.

I forgot--I also won the gift card to Best Buy and now I cant log in.

There appears to be some confusion here. NCI does not at any point charge its members any fees whatsoever. NCI specifically recommends not doing business with (or even providing your name or email address) to companies offering to provide you with job listings in exchange for fees. Such companies are either scams or are more than willing to sell your contact information to the highest bidder. To echo one of the above individuals, YOU are the one who is to be paid, not the company you're working for. To those who are having issues with their accounts/login. Please email your manager or submit an inquiry via the Contact page. Thank you.

I have been shopping for 10 years. I have not heard of this firm. Can you tell us more about what it is that you do?

I emailed and called them several times but did not get an answer

I've done both two or three times and gotten no response. I understand that if this company is located in the US, the holiday could slow down response times, but it has been about a month now since my first email.

I think it is located in NJ somewhere. That is where I am from. I do not know what I did wrong. I wish they would tell the people what they did.

I know that they remove people if you try to use the same link more than once unless you got a message that said nothing was available for you the first time, but I was trying to keep careful records to avoid having that happen. It is possible I may have accidentally clicked through on the same link more than once.

Not only have I not received any response to my email inquiries regarding why I cannot log into my account, I have not gotten any emails from them at all.

"Evolve thyself and lose all hate...." Orphaned Land

I did keep good records also. Would check my list before I did a job. I did get paid for all my jobs as of my last payment I think the beginning of November. I then went to do more jobs and the site said it was down for maintance. I kept going back getting the same message when I logged in. Then 1 day I tried to log in and it said wrong password. So I requested a password and it said no user with that email. So i figured with the maintanence maybe the accounts got deleted. I re-signed up and it said email in use, try another email. I used my hobby email and it said IP is blacklisted. How can it be blacklisted if I got paid for everything up to date? It states if you are terminated, you wont get the jobs you did.

I am very disappointed in this company and I highly recommend that people do not sign up with them. I did many jobs that I did not ever get paid for. In fact they owe me about $44.00. I finally did get a response from them in which they explained why they blocked up from using their website. They claim I submitted false information.

I never intentionally submitted false information. I might have made a typo or something. They told me to contact their legal department. I have not yet done so.

I think this company is engaging in something almost like a Ponzi scam (They pay you in the beginning or the first people who sign up get paid). People sign up like I did. I completed the first group, got paid and was given a gift card which they said I won. This motivated me greatly to submit more jobs. I submitted three more groups of jobs and got nothing. Of course, they must have used the work I submitted and they got paid because they are basically being paid to get people to sign up for things. It is not really mystery shopping.

I am very disappointed. I am now staying away from all of these companies that call themselves online mystery shopping companies because I have been burned twice by two different companies.

"Evolve thyself and lose all hate...." Orphaned Land

Same here to a point. Got all my pay but all of a sudden when I go there to click on the pages I just get the home page. No response to my emails at all.

Is this company paying? I seen the diffrent job groups for online work but don't want to start doing them if they are a scam and not paying. Thanks

They owe me about $44.00 and have refused to pay because they claim I submited false information during one of the shops.

When I found out "field assignments" were a privilege after doing $30 worth of very shady "online shops"...

When I asked Cynthia C (my rep) about this and got no replies from her, just more canned messages...

I smelled fish.

Then I saw these clowns advertising on Google again. I reported the ad (I'm also an AdSense publisher, at least for the moment).

My advice: Stay away from Nascosto.

I didn't even know that they were promising field assignments. Is this really mystery shopping? It is more like signing up for stuff online, and I wonder if the companies ever even look at or see the reports.
