Yes, I've worked with them for years and over the years the fees have gone down for the same work, the jobs have gone from self assign to request and the payments have gone from slow to slower. Not a favorite by far. I work for them if/when they finally get around to bonusing up to fair pay for the work (especially 'fair' vis-a-vis their competitors). Reports are simple, straightforward no brainers.

Be sure to get promised bonuses in writing, the scheduler can (and will) promise anything to get a shop done but you won't have a leg to stand on when they don't pay what they promised.

Yes, when they are not showing the bonus on the web site I ask for the job as a return email to the emailed offer of bonus.

Thanks, Flash and Cettie. I have a first shop pending with them (non-bonused) but I will be careful!

The first rule of mystery shopping is always CYA.

I agree with both prior posts they are very slow in paying you and will worry you to death about deadlines so make sure you don't put to much on your work load. Their narratives are long but no brainers so make sure you put details! details! details and repetitive quotes do come around often, and please make sure that you get the 'Prize' the business card from the person that you are targeted to shop whether it is teller,customer service or bank representative get a business card or all is lost!!(

Completed my first shop for them a couple of weeks ago. Longest I've ever seen on that system (Sassie) without even a shop rating, so I inquired about a week ago to make sure that everything was in order with the shop. Still no response.

ath power does not give any rating. You will only hear from them if there is a question on your shop. In addition, they do pay their bills but are behind in payment.

Ah, first one on the Sassie system for me that doesn't rate. Anyway, it still would have been nice to get a reply!

I could be wrong, but it seemed that this month ath may be a bit ahead of their payment schedule. But I could be mistaken on that.

Possibly. I note the shops I did in March are marked "Paid 5/5/10". Since that date is still a week away . . .

They told me they pay the end of the next month following the shop, but to allow an additional week for processing. So being paid on the 5th for a March shop sounds right.

nicetwicely: I have had shops marked as paid and it took ten to fifteen days to receive payment. ATH Power is slow paying, but you will get paid.
