The Mystery Shopping thread - part 6

Please can anyone advise me? I have done a pub job (meal) for RE and had to purchase the usual (one drink form each list and a meal). When I have done these before, it has been for two persons but the scenario for this one is for one person - although the notes say you can take others. I took hubby.
Do I evaluate just two drinks & one meal as per the scenario - or the two drinks and both meals - as it was ok to take someone?? Sorry but head is full of cold & I can't think what I need to enter. At least the visit was all ok so nothing much to think about lol. Thank you x

Just write up what they ask you about, so the one meal, I tend to write up the 'worst' meal, if they were two from the brief.

Not aware that TNS work on a points system like RE. I've always found them really helpful. I would email your controller and offer the other dates you can do it on instead (or ask to cancel)

I emailled RE to find out why I'm listed as Probabationary again, apparently I was uncontactable, as my phone number was missing/wrong, so is probably worth people checking their numbers again (mine was right on my profile so I dont know why they couldnt get me on it but never mind). Hopefully theres some jobs left for me now though!

My address was wrong on my profile a while back and I changed it, saved it and about three days later it reverted to the previous incorrect one. This has happened a few times.

Well I've just ditched a pizza job! Was just going to order when I realised that what I had to order was not even covered by the reimbursement amount, I think its a bit off that, especially when you have to order what they say and then complete the questionnaire as well. I would have been £3 out of pocket but decided instead to use the bogoff coupon put through the door so that we can both have a pizza and end up better off!

I've just done exactly the same thing! My fave pizza's are on offer in Asda for £1 each, so I'm going to grab one of those, a salad and a bottle of wine instead...

I don't blame you. I still had to pay £15 but at least I am getting two pizzas now instead of one! How much meaner are the MS companies going to get with their fees?

I have a question about pizza shopping - my instructions say order 1 pizza plus 1 side plus 1 drink - can I order a second pizza as well?

I thought it meant I couldn't but then another part says remember to only assess the food ordered for the assignment so I started to wonder......
