@MisterBill, do you not understand the difference between the following?

Please calm down; you said "MAYBE they prioritized..." Therefore I did not accuse you of being wrong. I merely said that they were apparently not paying shoppers owed reimbursements first, since they still owed me more than $500 reimbursement for my mid-March shop.@MisterBill wrote:
I was referring to people (like me) who had done February shops. Your payment isn't even due yet so I'm not sure how you can be telling me that I'm wrong.@AZwolfman wrote:

Or maybe they prioritized paying the people who were due reimbursement. None of mine were reimbursement.
No, that's not it. I am owed over $500 in reimbursement from the sole shop I did in mid-March. I should be paid for the shop by June 15, according to their stated pay schedule. I will contact them if I have not received payment by then.

MSF closes-- KSS partnered with HSB on these shops. So Lorri has the obligation to make a decent effort to see that the shoppers she recruited get paid.
Bob disagrees--An independent scheduler's obligation is to their client, in this case SS.
I meant prioritizing the payments that were overdue, since they had not paid some of us. I thought it should have been clear; I guess not.@AZwolfman wrote:

Oh look. Got paid today, just as expected.
A whole bunch of people here, wasting a whole lot of time. You must be bored.

You did one shop and maybe shelled out a few bucks to do it, if anything at all. A whole bunch of people laid out a good deal of their own money for this company and expected to get it back at the agreed upon time, not weeks later with no updates or explanation.

Wrong as usual.

He only owes me $36. I can take it or leave it. I'm not sending an email for $36.

I have been owed anywhere from >$30,000 to $12 in a month from HS Brands.
I always get paid.
Move along.

A $30,000 reimbursement for one month of shops done for HS Brands? How long is your nose now?
Nothing in life is guaranteed. MSCs and other businesses can have good and bad periods. It is not a good sign when an MSC does not have enough cash on hand to reimburse and pay its shoppers at the time it agreed to do so. The lack of communication from the MSC adds insult to injury.

My suggestion is to receive the cash you have earned and then decide which direction is best for you.

I was the person in the NV office with a big enough credit line to do the job, so they flew me in to do it.
Paid by check.
@shopperbob wrote:
MSF opines--That's ridiculous that any MSC would ask a shopper to put up that amount and take that kind of risk.
Bob comments--Any MSC is free to ASK of a shopper, with whom they contract, to accept any conditions; said person, being an IC, is then equally free to decline the request. As to risk, I am certain Mama determined the reward was worth the job.

Since this is an unusual situation, I am giving them the benefit of the doubt.
Yes, many of us did. They typically pay 2 1/2 months after the end of the month when the shop was completed, so they were 2-3 weeks late. That's the whole discussion here. It seems like some people are also being paid earlier than scheduled for March-April shops.@SwimMom wrote:
I just got paid by HS Brands for shops I did back in February. ????????????♀️
Your payment is not due for another week or so.@salisburync wrote:
