Someone said about the phone jobs going from RE to GFK, can anyone see them on yet? I've had a look and nothing, and I had one booked with RE until it was cancelled.

I have had a look on GFK and RE. Mine is still with RE though. I have not seen any on GFK

.... thought best not to reply on alerts thread, but did anyone look for the jobs on the post about an hour ago for the overnight hotel visits and hotel phone calls? I cant see one i'm just not fast enough.

I can't see any either but thought that might be because I work as a Travel agent and never get to see the hotel ones

Phone shops - the ones on GFK that I see are jobs that RE had the other week for a competitor (as I did one) So not sure what is going on with the phone shop jobs!

Just out of interest, are these phone jobs still showing on Gfk because I can't see any, and haven't seen any over the last few days. Does it matter what part of the country you live in?

Thats the problem with GFK you can only see the jobs in your area, you cannot search, I am in East Kent

What a night! Had a meal re an RE job that took over an hour to arrive....... so a supposed 45 mins visit took 2 hours. Good job the food was lovely!

Anyway, just doing the report and on the expenses page is says 'time taken'. Is that the time the receipt was taken??? ie the number of minutes from entry till you paid. Never seen that one before.......

Yeah I think thats always there on RE isn't it?? But yes that would be the time taken from enrty to leaving.

Good night all off to bed now x x

On RE "time taken" usually means the time in minutes from entry until the time you leave.

Occasionally it will say "time taken for main courses to be served" or similar, so do double check in case you enter the wrong time.

I've had some phone shops offered to me on GFK in the last week, at the end of their date period so I guess ones that people have turned down/cancelled etc. I couldn't do them though so declined. I'm in Yorkshire.

Thanks for the replies re RE Unfortunately you can only put a time up till 59 minutes. As we were there for 2 hours.......oh well. Can't do much else. Thank goodness the report wasn't 'too long'.

Is it me or does anything else think the fee for GR bank jobs isn't that great - just comparing it to GFK really. Kinda wish I hadn't taken the job now I've seen the questionnaire.......
