    Just been thinking (yes, it hurt), there is an entire thread for spotting restaurant deals, which almost exclusively have a link to the website of the restaurant. Now that is advertising a promotion in a similar way to how this MS company advertises that there are jobs available, it seems illogiacal for MSE to have an entire thread for one kind of promotion, yet to remove other posts as advertising for another.

    Disappointed in RE... jobs in Sunderland and in Leeds, but nothing in the middle bit where I am!!! Seems to be the same every time I look on there. I have one job for them this week and that is only my second since registering with them months ago!

    Think I'm in the same area as you Scaredy Cat. I don't get jobs as far off as Leeds showing up, but there has been a definite drought in the Cleveland/Co Durham area, even when I see a chain come up that I know we have a branch of. I've only gotten two from them this year, and both of those were in the airport when I was flying out.

    you can only take one phone job. once you accept one they all disapear - they should let you do as many as you want as they are for lots of different companies.

    i got one anyway. the fee is rubbish but never mind!

    The RE phone jobs are listed as 'business' so probably only showing to people who have work contact details registered, pebbles the ones I could see were all for the same company.

    there are actually on ly 2 companies there, the farmers and the holiday.

    Despite different names on the holiday calls, it all goes through to the same call centre. As you have to give genuine details I think thats why they limit it to one job per person for each.

    there was also banks and a department store finance section (maybe these are the same company as well)

    i saw a casino on there as well just now - you need to be a new member though. i don't know why it's on my screen as i have already done a job with this company with re.
