I really hate finding good information and getting all excited about opportunity, then never see another post about how it is going in real time. Well today we are going to revisit a couple of companies from my original post.
Certified:
This still remains my top pick today. The availability of assignments and the ease of completion continues to make it a viable option. Now for the bad news, it will take approximately three weeks to get your direct deposit set up and to recieve your first payday. After the initial wait you are supposed to be paid twice a month, thing is they do not garuntee pay dates! You never know when you will be paid or what assignments will be included in it. My first check on 02/19/08 was 42.00 and I recieved it within days of it being notified. The next payment I recieved on 03/11/08 was a direct deposit of 150.00. It posted to my account within minutes of notification. As you can see there was nearly a month in between payments and I have yet to recieve my next payment for March. I will keep you posted on whether the payments pick up or become more regular.
Most of the other companies on my post have either taken a very long time to pay out or have no new assignments in my area or both. So I no longer use most of them. I do however pick up a couple of shops a month from MSI services.

This company has been very easy to work with as well and they pay/reimburse twice a month on specific dates. For me it is the 5th and the 20th of every month.
The one company that I recind my recommendation for is Buisness Evaluation Services.

They require you to what up to 40 days from payment approval to recieve a check. That to me is absurd. I am unwilling so I no longer accept much from them. If you are in no hurry to be paid then their assignments are fairly easy but due to economical factors I would not recommend them.
All of the rest of the companies that are in my previous post may still be good options in other areas, but for me in rural Arkansas they just do not have enough work to keep me busy. Hope this information is helpful and I will keep you posted on my progress.
NOTE: I have been contacted by two companies that do regular employee withholding and schedule you set hours per week I will let you know how these companies work out.
