I got the survey also. I am social media savvy, with multiple IG accounts (personal, pet sitting and rescue work). However. none have 1,000 followers. Maybe I could get there, but if THS wants me to do some of their marketing, I would need to be paid. This was my answer to the survey question “I am not going to market THS without payment. You discuss rewards, but in vague terms”
Good point. I spend far too much time on it, but don’t really post much. I’m also convinced that most of my 40ish FB “friends“ quit following after I posted a handful of Canadian political comments over the past few years. So nobody would see what I posted anyway
I received an email the other day asking to do a survey as to why I didn’t join the program!
Me too @Globetrotter
I wonder if it was sent to all sitters or just some?
@Globetrotter, we received that email too.
Irony is a wonderful thing … asking someone to voluntarily complete a survey on why they chose not to volunteer their time …
@Twitcher Of course it does
I joined Trusted Tailblazers and it looks like a scam. I spent ages posting social media posts to promote trusted housesitters with the offer of gift cards and got nothing.
It actually seems impossible to get all the rewards they promote as there are not enough tasks to get enough points to get there.
Its been very disappointing
Hi @mistycat
I’m so sorry to hear about this.
I can see that you contacted Member Services, and they’ve passed you the email address so that you can reach the team.
I have passed a note of the ticket number from MS and let them know that you’ve shared your concerns here on the Forum.
If you haven’t already, please reach out to the Trusted Tailblazers email address with your concerns and someone can hopefully get this all sorted out

Hello!
Here’s a quick update about Trusted Tailblazers, in light of the above concerns.
I just wanted to provide some reassurance that it’s not a scam. The team are looking into the delays mentioned by @mistycat, as they do regularly send out the rewards. It’s a manual process and from what I hear there are sometimes technical problems. The team are speaking to the relevant people to sort out a resolution to those delays.
The majority of our Trusted Tailblazers are receiving and enjoying their rewards, but we’re sincerely sorry that isn’t the case for @mistycat. Please be assured that the team are proactively looking into what’s happened so they can put things right.
Thank you for making us aware of what’s going on.
If I receive any other updates I will share them here.

ANother day another nothing except apparently now I have completed the task to tell tailblazers what I have used my gift card on. This is the gift card I don’t have. Nobody answers my messages its hopeless and although you say it is not a scam I have nothing to base this on. All the best
