    I've got some stamp shops lined up for next week, but still showing as scheduled for me - just hoping they don't get cancelled on me! Have you had yours for Oct cancelled TG?
    Haven't had any cancelled, as I didn't have any booked - have done loads in the last few months and wasn't eligible to visit any of them this time as I'd visited too recently. Still nnoyed to get the email telling me they'd taken me off the stamp shop jobs though - was getting a nice collection of stamps for Xmas cards!

    Has anyone managed to nab one of the Spanish-style restaurant assignments that have been posted on RE? Every single one I've tried comes up with 'Sorry, unfortunately this assignment has just been accepted by another shopper.' I wonder why they're still showing on there..? :confused:

    I can't even see any! I don't know if it's because there just aren't any in my area - or if I'm not allowed to see them because I haven't accepted one of the rubbish jobs first. Any thoughts? Is it true you have to do a rubbish RE job before you get to see the better ones? Problem is most of the ones I see are too far away to be worth the trip.

    Also, on the Alerts thread someone has just posted that there are phone jobs on Bare - but I can't see any at all. Have they gone already or am I not allowed to see those either?

  • I was allocated my first job with Assosia last week and they said I would get the details yesterday. I didn't, so I've emailed them this morning but still haven't got anything. Are they usually like this? It's an audit which I've never done before so I'm keen to get the details.

    Thanks! I think you're right, I don't recognise the name, so probably none round here!

    Is this the one where you have to take a photo?

    I'm a bit upset I emailed back and said I could do up to 3 local ones and they never replied - usually they have the decency to email back and say if they've already been allocated to someone else, but I've not had any reply at all this time.
