Favorite MSCs?

I'm currently with MarketForce, BestMark, and The Source/ViewSource. I'm looking for other MSCs that pay using direct deposit (I don't have PayPal). What are some of your favorite MSCs to shop for?

My favorites are any for which the work:pay ratio is acceptable; that not only consists of the fee, but also the conditions of business. Are the MSC's contactable, are problems easily resolved and do they use a single page report devoid of repetition? With respect to those companies with whom I currently work, I have completed almost 600 jobs for Strategic Reflections and 236 shops for Service Sleuth.

I am familiar with all three of the MSC's you listed and, in the distant past, worked with them, but two fired me and the third is rarely willing to pay my requirements.

On an unrelated note: Today, I received a notice of a shop at a hotel. The fee was $20, with a reimbursement of $100 for a total of four drinks and two dinners. While that may sound generous, predicated upon the location, it is a small amount of pay for a mammoth mound of work. For someone, though, it could be viewed as a treasure trove.
If you are shopping and don't have Paypal you are ruling out a LOT of companies/opportunities.
Look at companies at the bottom of this page, as asking without location brings our favorites (maybe) not having jobs in your area, so check it out on your own and good luck. Seems you are limiting yourself by not opening a Paypal account, it's free.

PayPal is super easy to sign up for and it's free. Try Jobslinger and Presto Maps if you want to see some MSCs that might have shops in your area.
Also, go to the first page of the first post on this forum area, permanently attached at the top, [www.mysteryshopforum.com]

It lists the payment dates of many MSCs and in many cases it tells how they pay so you can easily identify those that pay by direct deposit.

Off the record ..... I wonder how jpgilham is doing. She left us for other kinds of work after putting in all the work to compile that list. Has anyone heard from her?
hi spiral,

Welcome to the forum! I had a bad experience with PayPal. I don't use them if I have other options.

EPMS pays via direct deposit, so does Remington Evaluations.

Some, not all companies, that pay via PayPal, will give an option for check or direct deposit.

The companies on the iSecretShop platform are PayPal only, I think.

I have never had a problem with PayPal, or with Direct Deposit, or even with Dwolla.

Shopping Southeast Pennsylvania, Delaware above the canal, and South Jersey since 2008
Honny's problem was not with getting paid via PayPal, if I remember correctly. It was using PayPal to purchase something. She can clarify that. It made me think twice before using it to make purchases but I don't mind using it to be paid.
I've used Paypal for years only for work money and never had a problem....

JAS is correct, it had nothing to do with getting MSC payments. PayPal made an error that resulted in a refund getting lost. They ate up all of my MSC payments until it was resolved.
