Weird RBG Experience

January 08, 2026 03:51AM
Hello and good evening.

The first weird thing was that here we were on the 5th of January and the shops for the Pizza (Fast Casual) were still heavily bonused. It seems like they would have their bonuses stripped at the end of hte month in the past.

The second weird thing was that the due date was January 31. Pretty odd I think.

Lastly, they wer self-assign on the SASSIE interface. I took two of them. I didnt’ get the famiilar “ASSIGNED” e-mail on either of them.

They show up in my shop log thoug so I’m guessing I’m okay. Just off behavior of the RBG site.

check your spam folder, they probably did send the email. Someone else was talking about an MSC randomly changing their email address or shortening it. I don't know if that was RBG or not, but I wouldn't put it past them.

We've been doing the other C-store pizza shop, and we're sorely disappointed by the pizza.. but they finally made the pay good enough to do it while we're out doing other shops. I guess I should sign on the RBG and see what's available there.

Yes check the spam. Since the new year, my emails from them have all gone to spam.

I have my email for most shops as yahoo. I noticed RBG and some other MSC have started going to spam more and more in the past month. Even the SASSIE "reminders" that i have a shop due that is sent a couple days ahead have ended up in the spam folder as well.

Sassie must have rolled out some updates - several companies now have new email addresses as the senders, and I have spot checked a few companies and my email preferences were shut off.

I was just assigned a different shop from RBG, and the acceptance email was in my spam file.

Embarrassed to say that I didn’t check SPAM folder. Found them both there along with a lot of other MSC e-mails.

Still sort of confused at there being a whole month to do the shop though.

Anyway.

My spam folder started getting tons of emails in it from real senders that I keep in touch with. I used to get one or two every few months caught in the spam folder but suddenly I was getting 30 a day that were real emails in my spam. I clicked not spam on all of the good ones daily for about a week and lately it seems my spam folder is behaving itself again But its only been a few days since it cleared up so i am hoping that did the trick.

Not sure if everyone mentioning this uses Yahoo BUT something is going on with Yahoo's spam filter. They have been sending things to spam that were previously delivered and never reported as spam by me. Simultaneously, they have been letting through things that are very obviously spam in volume and would have previously be filtered. It seems they made a change that isn't yet working properly.

I don't use Yahoo, my issue is with google. The only thing that SHOULD go to my spam folder is the stupid Etsy emails. But lately about half of my MSC emails are ending up there. And I'm not exactly sure how Etsy fingered out what my MSC email is, unless it has something to do with Paypal.

I have other email addresses for sales stuff and one specifically for fast food rewards programs.
