    I'm flying out from Birmingham International next week, managed to secure an airside visit from RE :)
    Just wondering if there are any other companies that have airside visits available?
    Thanks
    TNS sometimes have a few. Check it out.

    Just checked their website and it appears that they don't have any for Birmingham at the moment.

    If anyone is waiting for payment by GR I've just noticed that mine have been paid today so should be with me by Wednesday next week.

    I'm waiting on a GR payment...what do you mean by Weds next week? Is that how long it takes to clear?

    I'm lucky if they call me 3 times a year for an assignment. Although I did do one last week. They pay well and have some really nice assignments but I don't seem to be in a hotspot area for them or else they have their favourites and use me as a last resort!

    Does anyone else work for them and if so, how often do you get jobs?

    I did about 10 jobs for Retail Maxim last year, they were all really good ones and easy to complete. Their staff are lovely and they're the nicest MS company I've worked for so far. Unfortunately I've heard absolutely nothing since November last year which is a real shame. I emailed them with my phone number 'in case they'd lost it' and haven't had a reply. I might give them a quick call next week as I do miss working for them.

    Takes about 3 days to clear so I'd check Tuesday/Wednesday.

    I signed up with them half way through last year and only did 2, but I have had 4 with them so far this year. They have all been good, well paid jobs (clothes, shoe shops etc) so hopefully I will hear more from them.

    A cake shop has appeared on RE. Nationwide but most popular in the Midlands.

    Not seen them before, new client maybe?

    I spotted a few of them last month but none before then. :confused:
  • Has anyone picked up a 200 item product stock check for a major suprmarket through GR?
