Njsurveyman Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 I was called for an in person, but outside of their main NYC facility focus group last month. It was a $400 paid study, but told AFTER it was over that checks will be sent in the mail 4-6 weeks later. It hasn't been 4 weeks yet, but I am still getting nervous they screwed me over. I KNOW Schlesinger was good before they merged with Focus Pt Global, but I did read some troubling reviews in google about having to chase after them for pay now. Anyone else have good or bad experiences with Schlesinger in the past year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sandy21 Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 I haven't had a problem with them. A check or whatever the compensation might be usually arrives at the end of the supposed wait period but sometimes it is a bit late. HOPE you get your compensation asap!

AZMom Posted October 3, 2022 Report Share Posted October 3, 2022 I've taken several studies w/ Schlesinger since they merged with Focas Point Global and have always been paid timely. I will say I've never been paid by check, though - I always get a prepaid Visa card in the mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Njsurveyman Posted October 4, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2022 Oh ok. Thank you for the reassurance. I did reach them via PM on facebook just to politely inquire about payment and was told I should get it by 10/25, and to contact them again if not received by then. We were told payment would be via check, but wouldn't be surprised if it is a gift card instead. Although, I am really hoping its a check to help me pay some bills.

Njsurveyman Posted October 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2022 Well, it has almost been 6 weeks and still no incentive from this now awful company. This will be the last time I do any study for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Njsurveyman Posted October 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 UPDATE: They finally paid me today, 6 weeks since I participated in the study. Glad I finally received my check, but still think it is unprofessional to make participants wait this long before payment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
