  I have been trying to effectively use and take part in working with "shiftsmart" but the app keeps trying to suggest I need to only work am assignments and I have made my availability pm only during the week and full availability through the weekend (sat -sunday 12am-12,am)
  
  I would like to know why the company didn't have time to relate to us assignments seekers that circle k does or doesn't have pm assignments.. furthermore they do not reach out to you in the app.
  
  
  Also I have not received any assignment availability for "product testing" which I have been approved for.
  
  I have also called the phone of the supposed Phoenix Office with no response.
  
  
  I want this company to be able to advocate for us and get us jobs that are TRULY FLEXIBLE. shiftsmart is not flexible

  At Shiftsmart, shift availability is at the discretion of the client and can vary from region to region based on the individual needs of each client. If a partner resides in an area saturated with many app users, shift availability may be limited due to the demand for shifts in their respective location. Shiftsmart is always looking for new ways to innovate further and offer more flexibility to our partners and clients alike.
  
  A Shiftsmart support team member attempted to reach out to this partner over phone call and through in-app messaging to offer dedicated assistance, but have not received a response at this time. When reviewing this partner's work history, Shiftsmart can confirm there is availability in their area for two different projects. The Shiftsmart Support team verified this partner has access to many available shifts for the Merchandiser and Cleaner roles in their area which includes a few offered afternoon shifts. In addition, this partner has already accepted a shift for the Product Testing role in their area, but has since opted to cancel this shift on their end through the app. Shiftsmart app users are welcome to work as much or as little as they'd like based on availability in their area and are free to accept any shift that meets their needs and schedule. All they need to do is log into the app and accept the desired shift(s).
  
  Shiftsmart does not have a dedicated phone line for the Phoenix area specifically, however moving forward to speak to a live agent, our general support phone number can be reached at XXX-XXX-XXXX. The hours of operation to speak with a live support agent are XX:XX - X:XXpm EST, Monday - Friday.
  
  For the reasons listed above, we consider this matter resolved. If the partner has any further questions or concerns we would be happy to assist them.

  I worked for them Sunday August 7th wasted my gas so the work to not get paid!! Three days later I'm still at it about a payment I didn't receive!! Only for them to tell me I wasn't there that day!! I've sent over pictures my clock out number messages just to not be enough!! The more simple thing to do was call the manager that worked that morning and made a long story short!! This is a very unprofessional place to work for unless u like to argue about your pay!!

  For this project, partners must arrive onsite and perform assigned tasks such as cleaning and stocking shelves. Payment is determined based on a partner's check in and out duration on the app in conjunction with a check in code provided in-person by the Store Manager.
  
  Upon review, this partner reached out directly to the Shiftsmart Legal team concerning payment for their shift on 8/7/2022. The Shiftsmart Legal team completed an investigation and approved this shift within 48 hours. The partner was notified of the available balance and the funds reached their account the next day.
  
  
  For these reasons, we consider this matter resolved. If the partner has any further questions or concerns we would be happy to assist them.

  I worked for Shiftsmart doing mystery shopping and 2 out of 3 of my assignments were paid. On the third one they rejected it and stated I had made an error. Even when their app is always messing up and sending me to the wrong locations I still have them another try. I had worked a cleaner shift and was near 4 mystery shopper assignments and so I did all 4 within miles from each other in the Downtown area of Houston, Texas which is very busy. I used my gas and all my time and was rejected on all 4 assignments. So now the amount of pay is sitting at 4 times $13 and 1 at $20 totaling $72.00 plus all the gas and time away from my son, not to mention the car wear and tear. On Thursday when I realized I was not paid I messaged to complain while I was working and on the second Job they replied back then removed me from the platform while I was still working. I worked until 10pm and was unable to clock out or reach any one. After contacting their phone numbers one repeatedly says to contact the manager thru the app but glitches and won't let me send a ticket. Total for both jobs for cleaning is $92.00 so now the total for the mystery shopping and cleaning is $118.00 and their telephone support is very rude and speaking loudly over me when I call stating I must email @legal. She never gave me the email just at legal nor did she ever look up my account These people are what I believe to be scamming or going under and trying not to pay out. I have submitted all my proof and pictures and

  For this project, partners must arrive at a retail location and follow the provided guidelines in order to simulate a curated shopping experience and then submit a mandatory survey based on their experience. If all guidelines are followed and the survey is completed correctly the shop will be approved.
  
  This partner reached out about four rejected Mystery Shops in their work history. A Shiftsmart Support team member determined that this partner did not follow shop guidelines since they did not include themselves in any of the provided storefront images for each shop which is required. The partner was advised of this and confirmed they understood the reason for their shops being rejected. The partner went on to report an issue with another shift on a different project and the Shiftsmart Support team member verified payment was already approved, but funds were not yet transferred to the partner's bank. The Shiftsmart Support team member assisted to expedite paying out funds to the default payment method on file with this partner's approval.
  
  The Shiftsmart Support member confirmed the partner was removed from the platform due to violating our Partner Terms of Service and provided the email address for the Shiftsmart Legal team so that this partner can obtain more information pertaining to the circumstances around their removal as requested.
  
  For these reasons, we consider this matter resolved. If the partner has any further questions or concerns we would be happy to assist them.
