after completing five reports tonight, i went on RE and found four jobs in a train station on my way home from work so picked them all up - i am a glutton for punishment!!

Well, I don't believe it. When I posted a couple of minutes ago there were 3 of these travel agent jobs in my area. Now there is only 1.

Someone has obviously taken the other 2 but the one where I am going tomorrow anyway is still there. I'm still not doing it, though!

I'm getting quite annoyed with TNSs email system... so far, I've done two jobs with them, and have two more in the next week, and NONE of my work packs have arrived on the first attempt, I've had to email them about all four work packs and they've had to resend them. Anybody else having this problem, or had this problem?

I never get any work from TNS - never anything in Mcr area.... I've been with them 12 months and nothing.. tips please???

Most of the work I've had from them is Think 21 work, are you in the right age group for that? However, there are also lots of other jobs for the major supermarket chain, a pizza chain, a pub chain...

Don't rely on choosing your county from the drop-down list, view all of them from time-to-time, I've known there to be jobs in my county on the all jobs list that don't show up in the county list.

I have 4 jobs with them this week and didn't receive the work packs. I had to email and request them again, even though the Visit page says they had already been sent, I never received them.

It happened once before, too. Usually, though, I do receive the workpacks without problems.

Would seem that way, but they are not that bad, last time i did the stations I copied all my answers so its quite quick to fill them out now. Did you make sure the reimbursement is enough as I have just seen one on RE and it has the lower reimbursement. EDIT THAT, it must be one of the really old jobs thats been released as its complete date was today.

i did three a couple of weeks ago so i know the score with the questionaires!! the reimbursement is £5 per job and i have to buy a pasty, two coffees and a glass of wine. should be enough for a change.

Did an RE pub job today, 103 questions in the report!

Need to consider whether it is worth the hassle.
