Pound

Finally completed my self assessment for my MS work last tax year. Cheque for £2.12 is on its way to HMRC. :j

I had already read a great number of posts, I was asking for a brief summary and any more personal tips and hints from those with a good amount of experience. Obviously posted my request on the wrong thread.

If you've read lots of posts (including the OP) then you should have a pretty good idea of what's involved.

My tips would be: read the brief carefully, several times; allow plenty of time so you are not rushed; check you know where the location is; memorise any timing points and use a stopwatch/mobile phone if appropriate; check out the individual shopper guidelines on each website for extra info; read the questionnaire to check if you need any info that isn't obvious; you could write a checklist to refer to before you reach the location if that would help; finally, keep a comprehensive record of your accounts.

Good luck with your MSing, let us know how it goes. :beer:

Can anyone tell me of the best companies to do food jobs for at Heathrow pls? I'm going through there in Jan and thought I'd have myself a free brekkie! (and also, are they worth it?).
TIA

Have you tried TNS???

Yahoooooooooooo

finally got my first job on TNS. Only taken me months to find one.. well one thats not too much travel for the fees offered.
Maybe this is the start of a beautiful friendship haha

On a different note. Anyone ever have problems getting paid by BARE Int. ??? Only asking as they say they have paid me but I can't trace receipt of it. Emailed them and no response.
Is it because they don't like me? That would explain why I keep applying for jobs and never being offered them.. only for them to email me saying can you do this job we've already deselected from you.. Only for me to re-apply and never get it !!!!

RE seem to have the most aiport jobs, but you have to select somewhere in your details that you're flying soon or something.

Hi matthewluck it will arrive in your account on Saturday 15th November. (maybe check your account on Friday, as it will maybe be in then).

It'll either be Friday or Monday, as the banks won't action transfers on a weekend.
