There are loads or at least they were loads on GFK the last time i looked???

Strange, maybe they want to rotate the people?!?!?!

Yeh, I only got one so far this month I do think it it's more difficult for a man to get a mystery shop than a woman

Yes, I did this one yesterday, it was for the bank with a town name and linked to the country where they wear kilts. (clear as mud??) - account with a £5er?
I found the notes consusing too. Which part did you have a problem with?
It doesn't say if the phone call and appointment have to be done within the timeframe - in which case, there wouldn't be time for letters to be sent unless you were going on the last day. In the end, I phoned them on Friday and accepted an appointment for Saturday morning. The qusetionnaire was muddly too. It asked which accounts were discussed/offered and then told me my answer couldn't possibly be correct! Shame the advisor didn't have a copy of the script to follow lol.

i think i will email g f k and ask them if i can do the appointment next weekend. i was confused as i needed to ring and have an appointment on the same day.

hopefully i can sort it out this week - it's a very nice fee for a change!

It was a very nice fee wasn't it? The notes do not specify when the appointment should take place or how long after the phone call. They only specify that you need to ring and make one. I read it several times because the notes suggested that you need to wait for letters but didn't actually specify anywhere. I have followed all the 'must dos' in the notes so hope it will be ok!

I only have airside visits on RE as well. I have done two bank jobs for GFK this week and accepted a bingo and a web enquiry (for March). I had to turn down two bank jobs because I am off to visit my Parents .

Do RE give you all the recordings to listen to when you have done a phone job, or just selected ones?

Hi,

I read here a lot but rarely post. I'm having problems with RE (sorry don't know if I can write that?). I did 2 jobs for them yesterday and have completed the evaluations. My score recognises the reports but there is no money pending or complete. When I raise a query about them I get a message that says 'According to our records you are not linked to job *******'. What does this mean? Will I be paid?

Has anyone else had this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think a few of us are having this problem. Mine has just updated to show my score has increased and I have one less pending payment but it is not showing up due to be paid on 25/02. I'll see if it shows in the morning and if not will be calling them. HTH
