I am sorry you think I had a rude response...I would like you to re read what the OP said below...my response to the OP was prior to the OP explaining some of the things said in the original message. Since then there has been a lot of back and forth...Soooo, the OP said below that s/he contacted an attorney. Later on she qualified that to say she is not suing but she just spoke to someone she knows about the case. Her original statement which I responded to led me to believe s/he was actually thinking about or taking actions to sue.
The second paragraph to me sounded like she/he was over reacting to the situation and was totally fed up with mystery shopping. It does not say to me s/he is quitting this company. To me it says s/he is thinking of quitting mystery shopping altogether. This too was later clarified. this statement sounded like quitting all mystery shopping, not just this company : "I was really into mystery shopping. It recently became a full time thing for me and I was averaging $25-$50 an hour the days I was going out. Now I'm just pretty much done. "
I see you are new to the forum. I think your statement was quite rude to me. I am not a rude person. I was trying to help. The op was obviously very frustrating and the original post was what seemed like an over the top reaction. I was not the only one to not think the statements made much sense. Often shoppers just see red at first and write something up that leaves a lot out which is later qualified to fill in the gaps in the original post.
I've contacted an attorney. I'm told it can be difficult due to them not being in the United States but at the least the companies I performed the shops at can be informed that they're not paying as promised.
I was really into mystery shopping. It recently became a full time thing for me and I was averaging $25-$50 an hour the days I was going out. Now I'm just pretty much done. I'm ready to cancel my upcoming shops and delete my shopper email. I can't be bothered with wondering if I'm going to get paid for my time.
