IPSOS Green Gas Stations

Has anyone else figured out that now since these green gas shops are with the new company, I guess we can only do each location only 2 times a year? This is a huge change especially since with the other company we were always offered all these shops in bundles and I always got offered the same locations in the same bundles for years. This really sucks for me because I seem to always pick up the same 100-200 shops in my area and most of them I have already done twice this year, so now I will only be able to do about half the shops as usual this quarter. I think this is going to be a huge problem and cost them a lot of money in bonuses in the long run because I know many of these shops were not picked up last quarter until they were paying over double per shop. I am hoping that this will hopefully be realized by the company and the client and get changed because it is going to end up being way more expensive, especially if they do these all 4 quarters next year. It was very surprising to me because this was not mentioned at all during the conference calls that were offered by the company, but I was told that they just found out today.

Yeah, one of my schedulers sent an email earlier. I figure nobody else will do them and by the time they start adding bonuses they will also lift the restriction and let us do them.
That is what I was thinking. That is what they did last quarter with the Visual and Consumer. They had an order they had to follow, but by the end of the second month, the order did not matter any more.
How? I was told you are automatically blocked from picking them up. I can't do the same ones I did quarter one and two.

I applied and was assigned them. I don't know more than that.
Lucky you! There are even a few that I know I only did once and is getting blocked. I am really hoping that they change it soon.

I'm in a huge market with a lot of shoppers but for some reason a lot of these either sat on the board forever or were assigned then unassigned/had to be reshopped last quarter so maybe they made a special allowance for my market.
The other company is doing alternating quarters for the yellow company too which majorly hurt my income last month.

If it hasn't happened already, you should see the ones for which you are not eligible due to rotation removed. I believe that they just finished going through all of them in the last hour or so (I went from 85 to 18).
There are a lot of gas stations here that haven't appeared yet, maybe that's why. I've done a number of them this year, some more than once. I was told by a scheduler a couple of months ago that you can't do the mailing shops if you were the last one there. Maybe they are making some changes in who's eligible for what.
I agree. Some of the shops that I do are in a rural area and I don’t think they’ll find anyone else anywhere near to do them
