New Shopper

Hello, I ran into this place by accident. I had no idea there was a forum for this

Anyway, I had signed up for Mystery Shopping last year and the only thing I was sent, was to go to Car dealers. I had no interest in that. I live in a smaller town, so probably not much to do.
Yesterday I got a call from a representative from Informa for a job. Having to do with banking, so I was looking them up and ran into this forum.

Unfortunately, I could not understand the guy on the phone, but got an email follow up asking me to mystery shop this bank for 60 days.

I am interested if anyone knows any more about Informa and how well they work?

Thanks, Pam from Washington State

Hi Pam!
I live in the Seattle area.... Informa is a perfectly good company - they recently contacted me for the same shop. I did the first part of it last week. Here is a link for them: [shopperinformars.archondev.com]

There is a lot of work in the state and this can keep you plenty busy, depending on how far you are willing to drive. If you sign up with the most discussed companies on this forum, you will find that all of them have shops in Washington. I've been to every corner of the state - save the far northeast corner. There are shops everywhere. The more rural areas often pay more as it can be difficult to get a shopper to make the trip.

Hard work builds character and homework is good for your soul.

I love Imforma! Wish they had more shops near me that I qualified for. Some have very narrow criteria regarding credit rating.

Poor customer service? Don't get mad; get video.

They have a nice bonus on a bank job that is targeted, i did (tried) a few months ago, and the target was no longer there....very time consuming, the other banker wouldn't go to said location, and I wouldn't drive the allotted miles. The same job is now bonused, but the facts remain the same. I have worked for Informa with their headquarters not that far from me, but this one job, nope, no more targets.

Live consciously....

Thank you guys for your input

I am glad it is not some scam.
