I'm so glad to hear that so many people are finding this very useful!

That is great advice Norm!

I also suggest exploring the thread I will list below, as it contains a bunch of useful tips for shoppers:

Good luck on your shops folks!

Hi Ken,

There can be various reasons why the shops that you were emailed about are not on the Available Shops page:

• Some shops have specific requirements such as age or gender, and if you do not meet those requirements, you will not be able to see the shops on the Available Shops page or do them (for example, you can only see and do some shops if you are 21-27 years old).
• Some shops are posted in large numbers, and when a certain limit of scheduled shops is reached, the rest become "hidden" from the Available Shops page, as no more can be assigned.
• Some shops are in very high demand, and it happens that they are already picked up by other shoppers by the time you login and check the Available Shops page.
• Sometimes Mystery Shopping Providers restrict shopper profiles from accessing their shops, in case they do not wish to work with a specific shopper, and in that case all shops from that MSP will be hidden to that shopper.

In any case, for the most accurate information about any shop's availability and/or reasons why you might not be seeing some shops, please contact the MSP that posted them, and their schedulers will provide you with answers.

Cheers!

Any Canadian shoppers here that know the answer?

I just found a thread called "Advise on taxation in Canada" - perhaps you can find something useful there? https://www.secretshopforum.com/thread/3/6/152/advise-on-taxation-in-canada

Welcome back!

Better late then never, huh? :)

Yes, it should be available on all recorded phone call shops. Cheers!

Good morning Cherie, and welcome! We're glad to have you with us!

Thanks for sharing Tara!

Fingers crossed that dozens more MSPs decide to use iSecretShop as their shopping platform, giving everyone here more choices!

Malek,

Les planificateurs MSP décident des demandes qu'ils approuvent et qu'ils refusent. Ils prennent en compte divers facteurs-qui a demandé la première mission, qui l'a demandée pour la date la plus proche, qui a le plus d'expérience dans l'ensemble, qui a le plus d'expérience avec ces missions, quels autres badges avez-vous, etc. Je suggère de contacter le MSP pour demander leurs horaires directement.

Sylvie,

Les petites icônes que vous faites probablement allusion sont des badges-ils représentent toutes sortes de choses, à partir de votre score global Shopper, combien de temps vous avez été en utilisant iSecretShop, quelles missions avez-vous eu l'expérience avec, etc
