For the OP: were the shops actually assigned, then removed? You explanation is not very clear. It comes across as though they were never actually assigned.
Based on everything I have ever read here, and my two attempts to work with Maritz, I personally have no inclination to answer their calls or ever apply directly.
I did complete some signage shops for them, via a 3rd party listing. The 3rd party provided much more information up front and did not call me to review the guidelines before accepting my applications.
