I joined last summer and have just been told I've been recommended for Silver. It seems to be based on the number of dines and the quality of the reports you submit. Read the brief carefully and take note of any feedback and comments you get. The girls who man the phones are great; really helpful and will give advice if asked. Check available dines frequently, they go very quickly for some venues and often appear on a Sunday evening, so you need to ring first thing on Monday morning. Above all; enjoy the free food.

This sounds like a good idea - they're not taking on anyone in my area right now but I'll keep checking back. Are they the only site to offer something like this does anyone know?

Since I last posted on this thread I was accepted and have managed to get my first dine set-up for this week which I'm really pleased about! Going to be interesting trying to remember all of the stuff attached in the brief however hoping it'll prove to be a great way of eating out and providing valuable feedback at the same time!

Is it safe to give them your bank details? I know you that they pay via bacs but i am wary.

After my previous post, I did a mystery dine and it was fine, but there's been nothing since. I understand that there are a lot of diners in my area so that's probably why, but I want more!

Can you not be paid by cheque?. Id love to do this, sounds good.:beer:

It won't accept me. The first stage of the application process asks for your area and it says mine (THE NORTH) is saturated with mystery diners. At least you know this before you fill in all the following forms.

Hello, I need mystery diners or Silent Customers for my company all over the Southeast including Northampton and Essex. Go to The Silent Customer website to register. I do get why the Mystery Dining company can't reply to everyone who is unsuccessfull though...allthough it must be frustrating not knowing why.

Do you cover Suffolk?

Mystery Dining company seems to be taking on in different areas again. I have just applied.

I've thought about applying for this, of course no guarantee would get accepted, but I wondered if you get all your bill back or only a proportion of it. Silent Customers appears to only give back a percentage but I wondered if it was the same for Mystery Diners? Thanks.
