    Anyone know of any ms companies involved in regular Hotel guest evaluations? Got a few areas I am visiting this summer so your help would be appreciated. I'm already with MF, SM, retail active, QDOS etc. A PM would be great thank you.

    Mystery-shoppers.co.uk does a hotel but it's only in 5 cities.
    Tern occasionally does camping sites as well, but there's no fee.

    Looks like all of those ESA drink audits have been past for payment this month, quite impressed I thought they would be paid next month.

    Not arrived in my bank yet :( I would be happy if the have paid as I do their shopping task and that takes a couple of months to pay out.

    There is alot to do, but the ones I can see, have got no fee against them. If it is the usual ridiculously low fee, then I can see them not shifting.

    I have not done these visits for over a year, as IMHO the fee is too low and the briefs do scream you are a MS. Others must think similar as both the DIY chains and the tiles lurk on the board for weeks.

    Totally agree, what a joke. By the time you have looked at the brief, visited then answered questions and faffed around with snaps upload
