hi, does any do work for CRI? do they really pay so badly????? $5 per visit????

Yes they are that cheap, it's what is hapening in America. We should catch up soon:rotfl:
A year ago when not many knew about them the visits use to stay there and sometime go up to 12x the original visit.
The last time they did a phone shop and was released by some people the fee doubled and it was 4x GRG fee.
Things have changed a bit since and now there is an "Every thing must go" sign everywhere you look wether it is shops or shops being shopped.

Just wondered if anyone does any work for JKS, found them on google but don't think I have seen them mentioned on here.

I am registered with them. They are an international company but have very little work here.

The RE jobs are labelled as business so unless you're registered with a work email too you wont see them! Annoying that theyre such short notice really, as my OH is home so I cant do any of them (at the moment not being at home is a good thing).

I thought it meant you needed to have your own business...I put in my actual work email but its a big well-known company, do you think that's allowed??

Well, these hotels are all still showing for me - all over the country, sorry to rub it in. Not sure what the criteria is, as I'm not signed up to do business work and they show for me.

I'm with a big national company and wouldn't like to risk it and certainly wouldn't do any email ones, which is what I think they ask when you sign up for it. You can't have a yahoo, hotmail etc., account.

They're all week days, for one person only, so might be ok if you're on your own or want a night away from the kids or something - 17th - 19th Feb

I've put in a business email non-hotmail, gmail etc still nothing showing up!

You know on stamp jobs can you erm buy savings stamps with a debit card?

Charliezoo

How weird, I could probably do some of those. They obviously like you Nads!

Maybe there's something wrong with their website - not unusual - and it's just a hiccup that the rest of us aren't seeing the hotels. Might be an idea to get in contact with them and ask them what the criteria is to have these jobs offered to you. So if there is a hiccup, they can correct it.

Just sent them a quick message, I'll keep you posted. Did a very enjoyable first assignment for them in a clothes shop today the questionnaire was blimmin' hard work though...I know what you all mean now!

Someone was asking about stamp jobs on gap with the dvla form. For when it asks for your receipt you're meant to send a copy (jpeg) of the form you've filled out. They just rang to tell me!!! :rolleyes:

That's nice of them lol. I have been emailing them since yesterday morning about that and getting really moronic replies.
The first reply was "If you do not have to make a purchase, get a business card from the mos or a product brochure & get the mos to write their name and the store phone number on it!!"

Can you imagine saying to the cashier in the stamp place, 'Hang on a sec' then rushing over to grab a form or leaflet, thrusting it over the counter saying 'can you sign this please & write the phone number on it as well?' :rotfl: :rotfl:

I emailed them back to tell them to actually look at the assignment I was talking about & stop sending generic replies that of no use what so ever. Finally had some sense and an apology :eek: this afternoon.
