I've seen CO IDB people when they were unwilling to go beyond $300 in voucher compensation for a significant delay. Which is funny, because IDB compensation was $400 cash in that circumstance, and others had inquired about volunteering and would have done so for $400 or $500 in voucher.
There are tons of people re; college kids who Jump at the $150 as its their next tkt home.
To You or someone who is working and gets good $$, OK its a waste.
I do agree with you, and cant understand why CO wont go up in value to where they can get some Vols when they will have to IDB others. By IDBing folks they not only have to pay out Ca$h in lieu of CO Money, but lose Customers who might miss an appointment be it work or social related.
Im not saying to start at $500 but I dont understand why CO would rather pay say $400 cash then $500 or 600 in vouchers which doesnt take anything out of its pockets and at the same time wont lose it a potential customer or 2 those IDBed
