I'm a member of Mystery Dining too, have been so for a few years now. When I first joined, there were a lot of dines available and now they are really thin on the ground. However even so, I try to book a maximum of one per month to let other people get a chance. I've read on their forums that some people book one per week which I think is really unfair as it leaves nothing for the other diners.

Anyone know about IR?

If expenses you incur as part of your work give you a direct benefit (like replacing a meal you would otherwise have had to pay for) then it is normal that these benefits are taxed and therefore require you to let the HMRC know about them.

If you want an definitive answer to your question then I suggest you call your local tax office. More information available via https://www.Direct.gov.uk .

I'm excited and nervous - I've got my first mystery dine next week - I only applied a couple of days ago. I suppose I'm just lucky in that I maybe I live in an area where there aren't many mystery diners, and my application report was based on a restaurant in the area they are sending me to.

For those of you who are mystery diners already, are there any tips you can give for how you remember everything?

I applied last weekend after seeing this thread and got an email today to say that I had been accepted. Very excited!

Have you logged in? The first time you log in, it should load up automatically. If it's still not working, give them a call on Monday and ask if they can resend the link.

There is no easy answer to that question, you've just joined and are therefore a bronze member. Silver members will see new assignments a few days before you, gold a few days before them etc., so it is a case of'struggling' to get upto silver level, it is then comparatively easier to get to Gold etc.

If you are in an 'oversubscribed' area unfortunately it can take a while however!
