No hotels showing for me at all.

Ring RE (tomorrow) and find out why.

I've tried to tell them their web-site is CR*P but they don't think so.:rolleyes:

Ensure you have set the filters correctly and have registered an interest in Hotels.

I've just done one of my envelope phone jobs - it was great, definitely the best phone shop I've done. The SA really sold the phone & gave me a working demo of just about everything. Made a pleasant change & will make the questionnaire easier lol. Her face was all smiles when I gave her the envelope & she was thrilled. She also said that they can usually spot the MS but she would never have guessed I was one, if I hadn't given her the envelope, so that was great from my point of view too!
Now off to do the report & try to remember what features she said for which phone .

Hi,

I have all the filters ticked for all the options.

I will give them a call.

Thanks. :beer:

Yes, I enjoyed that one too. My salesperson also did not suspect anything.

hi guys,

please can anyone answer my question?

HI all,

OK this is probably a really stupid question but - if you only earn vouchers and say £100 in cash a year through mystery shopping - then do you still have to register for tax purposes?

forgive me if this is an obvious question.

Many thanks for all replies.

(sorry don't know how to quote)

Yes you need to declare cash and vouchers and anything else you earn. You have 3 months to register as Self employed or you could get fined.

Yes, I think it's classed as payment in kind, so you do still need to register. At least that's what we've been advised on here before.

There's not much point in asking the same question you've just asked half an hour before. It's not an urgent question - someone will answer in due course as I've done.

You can quote by clicking on the blue quote button towards the bottom right hand side of the post.

I used to do quite a few but now haven't done any for months. I don't think I've even heard from them this year. They've lost quite a few clients so I think work is slow for them. Send them an email to see if they have anything in your area. They used to do phonecalls too.



I thought that at first but once you understand the written questions, it's easier IYSWIM. You need to separate the yes/no factual stuff from the 'it was good/bad' subjective stuff. The more you do the easier it gets. I recommend saving your answers in a word doc then you can copy/paste and edit for next time to be quicker.

Sunshine - Yes; see first post of this thread for excellent Timmne advice.

Hi Johnny,

Sorry but this is a technical question and not related to the above message content! How do you insert two quotes in a reply? I can't do it & I can't find out how to . Thanks x

When I'm browsing the thread and see something I want to reply to I usually just open it up in a new tab (and may do so for several posts), and if there is more than one thing I want to reply to then I copy/paste one [quote....../quote] into the other tab IYSWIM?

Does that make any sense??

Perfect thank you . I thought it was something technical, I wasn't thinking simply enough lol!

Well you may have a view it as its within the rules but abuse removed previous posts as you well know so it must be seen as against the rules.

I dont go looking for the posters posts I just happen to notice it as I go in income forum every day I dont visit this thread but I saw there post as the last post in this thread as it is shown in the income forum

In future I shall keep stump if it bothers you and just report them, much easier this way for me.

For what it's worth I think you are a pious jobsworth as well. Why don't you go get a life. Timmne is a valuable poster on here who cotributes a great deal and helps us all.

You....what do you contribute...other than being a prize bore. Are you even a MS'er anyway as I have never seen you post on the subject (though I could of course be wrong). I am confused as your command of grammar isn't too good.
