It's because they're not very professional and need to use us shoppers to cover up their downfalls - don't take it personally!

Has anyone else noticed that the minimum spend for assignments at the dept store with a yellow carrier have now increased to £25 unless you are doing a food assignment? The payment is still only £10...

There was a huge list of phone shops on TNS a few minutes ago, all across the country. I clicked on on the one closest to me, but no assignment details came up. I then refreshed the search page, and they all disappeared? Did anyone else have that problem?

I had a phone call from GAP asking if I could do a burger job. They said it was in a town (where I will be in the area in a couple of weeks time) but about 18 miles away. I negotiated a date and petrol money :j lol, then went to check the address online. Well, the town they told me on the phone is the postal area NOT the actual address. The actual address is only about 3 miles away and I am going there to do another assignment that day anyway lol. Something for nothing from GAP :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: or should I be honest and tell them :rolleyes: ??

I need to cancel a pub jub with RE tomorrow as I have flu and no way can I get out to eat. Thing is, I can't seem to release it as I have set the date. The next step is "click here when you have visited location". Have tried calling but they are shut. Any ideas what I should do? Tomorrow is the last day of the visits. Am going to e mail the contact now but dont know if she wll get it in time.

If you log into RE, go to your active assignments (on the left hand side), then find the one you want to release, the release button is on the lower right hand side of the assignment box(you don't actually have to go into the assignment to find it). HTH

Nope, it was their foolish error - who know they might have been trying to scam you (assuming the 3 miles away location isn't your usual area)
