I have done three trailer checks for Movie Measure, beginning on March 22. I received payment for my two March assignments on April 2, via a PayPal eCheck. According to the PayPal notice I received, it can take 3-5 business days to clear, and post to the account. As of now, it is still in limbo.
The payment from Movie Measure is $2 short. Not a big deal, but a bit worrisome, in my mind, as this is only the first payment. I have written to Rakesh, and I am awaiting a reply.
Regarding the app, it works very well, and I really like not having to rush home after the last theater check to input all the information I’ve gathered. Everything is done before I leave the theater.
That being said, there are a couple of issues. All completed shops only appear immediately after completing a new trailer check. When I check the day after, there’s a pop up that says, “There are no completed assignments.”
Secondly, there is no payment information available in the app, nor is there a way to check online. I have no idea which trailer check I wasn’t paid for.
I’ve been permanently assigned to the theater near my house, which is nice. I did trailer checks there for the other company, for about two years, and had built a rapport with management and staff, which makes things so much easier.
Here’s hoping that the check clears by Tuesday, as scheduled. Fingers crossed.
