Another visitor wrote: "I have been paid by Best Mark and agree with the comments posted, in addition, I would say they require a great deal of reporting for no actual compensation and if you miss any of their steps, they do not want to pay."

Another visitor wrote: "I have always been paid quickly. If I have severalshops in the month, it will be 1 check at the end of the SAME month - NO "middle of the next month delay" If I only have 1 or 2 shops, the check is at my door in 5-7 days. (quick considering it's over 1900 miles!)
I would not expect to be paid for an incomplete job, so I have no problem with not being paid if I skip parts of the survey.
Although I ama on my 3rd rep in 2 years, all of the reps (incl others at co.) with whom I have spoken have been VERY friendly and helpful. (I am still in contact with my previous 2 who left the company.)
Only complaints: 1. fine dining allowance is often short of actual expense, much less tip, 2. it often takes a great deal of time for survey."

Another visitor wrote "I've worked for National Shopping Service for more than 8 years now, never once have I not been paid! I have only had positive interactions with them!"

Another wrote "I have visited National Shoppping Service and find them to be very unprofessional.  I wrote to tell them to take me off the list.  Questions arn't answered and payment takes 6 weeks."

Another wrote "I dealt with Rex at NSS.  He e-mailed me to ask me to do a shop.  We stayed in contact until I was paid, and never once did he not answer an e-mail.  He told me when checks would be mailed, and I received my reimbursement within a week after the check had gone out.  I asked him about the comment made by someone who frequents this page.  He said he would treat me right, and he did."

Another wrote "I'm paid, but the scheduler isn't very organized when sending out shops nor fair/organized when deciding who gets the shops."

Another Visitor Wrote: "I question the comment regarding Secret ShopNet, specifically, the shopper making a "few hundred dollars per month". You are only allowed a maximum of 15 shops/month at $10 CDN or $7 US per hour. I have never seen a job in excess of 1 hour, nor one that reimburses over $15. Perhaps the money spoken of is an exageration. Also, jobs in Alberta are not plentiful, as mentioned. However, the company is efficient and does pay on time."

Another visitor wrote: "I have been doing assignments for Secretshop net (Service Intelligence) for several months. Great company and yes I too have made Excellent money. I have met several Mystery shoppers and am afraid to let them know about the site..I don't want to lose my extra income! :)"

Another visitor wrote: "I too have worked steadily for SecretShopNet and have earned $200 in my first month with them.  The comment above stating that they only have jobs that pay $7.00 is untrue.  Some of my jobs have been for 2 to 3 hours @ $7 per hour, with reimbursements for purchases up to $19.00."
