      The Donor is temporarily deferred for ear piercing that he was using a band-aid to cover it up. The Donor will be eligible to return February of 2023. He was made aware of this when he was deferred. OPI must follow our SOPs, or else the *** would shut us down.

      On December 2nd, I went into Octapharma Plasma to make my biweekly donation. After I was done, I was told I would get $60.; however, based on my number of donations within the past 35 days, I wouldve received $75. When I asked the employee, she informed she informed me that they had just change the rates and she was not sure if they would remain at the reduced rate. I do not have a problem with the decreased rates IF I was notified about it prior to my donation, I was not, there was no signage posted at the business, I didnt receive an email, nor was it updated on the app. Below is a screenshot of the app indicating that my next estimated payment is $75 (taken after I donated today, Dec 2nd). I tried to call corporate, but I was unable to reach a representative. I am requesting to be reimbursed $15 from Octapharma plasma. Thank you, *************************
