MarketForce Question

September 07, 2010 07:39PM
I was reinstated. I also received a call from a scheduler to do a shop she needed done today, bonused.
So, it is not so dramatic as some make it sound. I think the computer program adds up your numbers, and when you reach a certain number of no-nos automatically boots you out. Some one there has the discresion to reinstate you.
My policy is always ask.

Market Force has been really great to me. They have paid me well to travel for a lot of shops. Key with them is to develop some personal scheduler contacts. They can fix any quirk. The shopper profile can change for a variety of reasons (cancelling one could possibly trigger) and block seeing some shops. I have experienced that a few times. But they have been one of the best I do work for and highest paying. They have been willing to pay me travel bonus and give a high concentration of shops for traveling a few hours away since I have proved myself and well trained on many of the regularly scheduled shops.

Does anyone know if it's possible to temporarily deactivate your account from the blue portal?

I don't know that you can. You can turn off email notifications I believe or you might pose the question to their Help Desk, indicating something such as that you will not be shopping for the next ___ months.

I may have missed something, but when I email the help desk I receive a boilerplate response, essentially telling me to read the help section of their site and solve my own problem.

Which is fascinating because I have had 3 idiotic issues pop up since the beginning of the month. When told to compare the website to the instructions to evaluate a third item, the instructions are so far out in left field it isn't even funny. When questioned through Help I was told by a Shopper Advocate to follow the instructions as printed. Okey dokey. When a failed shop jammed the report, the Help Desk was able to push it through for me. When I got a weird message on the CPI Status page I had a Help Desk person say it was 'normal'. Basically the one useless answer out of 3. None of the answers were boilerplate.
