The Mystery Shopping thread - part 6

I'm obviously on the banned list as on the alerts board it says phone calls and hotels but nothing is showing for me and I've been checking as soon as the alerts go on if not just before. Still the 2! :mad:

Apologies if this has been asked before, I've had a quick look but not come across anything. Has anyone ever been checked up on on CCTV?
I've noticed quite a few jobs say that your timings can be checked using CCTV, so just curious!

I haven't myself but someone on here said the golden arches have been known to check cctv if they don't score highly when I asked about taking my son with me coz the rules say you must shop alone

Yes; well 1 pub remembered something so well I think they checked CCTV, and also one Underground shop claimed to have checked CCTV; both were places I scored negatively. Both were for RE.

Wouldn't worry about it, I just arranged childcare and went out for a meal for one of there visits, to find out the place doesn't serve food :wall:

Has anyone done a job for Mystery Outsource. I have got 1 ( optical) and just downloaded the guidelines and not a dicky bird about what the fee is or if they pay travel. And it is 30 miles away.

:eek: OUCH. Huge outlay & no result. Sorry to hear that. Wll they pay anything?? Luckily I haven't had that happen yet - but something similar will occur at some stage I expect.

I got an email about this last week but it was a bit too far for me to get to by public transport & I've also got 17 jobs on this week & more next week so couldn't fit it in - otherwise I would have had a day out there! I'll email you with the fee they quoted me - I don't think we're supposed to say on here!
It did say mileage could be paid if necessary.
