I'm a bit confused by this as the current ones say you must be prepared to use your real name and address or do you just ignore that?

In the briefing notes it says you can use a false name if you wish. In the results questionnaire it asks you what name you used. But that only applies if you have an account with Bank of *******

I've been sorting all my paperwork out this afternoon ready for filling in my tax return and I've found out that I haven't been paid for a visit I did for TNS.
The thing is it's from last December :eek:

It's certainly taught me to check things sooner from now on, but do you think there's any chance of getting paid now?

eeeekkkk. i have made a mistake on a gap assignment. i was supposed to go before 10 this morning but i went at 10 past 10 as i thought i could go before 10.30.

what should i do? i only realised when i tried to do the report and it said times not valid. how can i let them know??

thanks in advance!

Sorry to break this to you but I don't think you'll get paid as they'll argue it was not within the times; this has happened to me once before.

Having a nice pub lunch today;can't wait. Then tomorrow I have a pub meal and then a drinks only visit. I love this mystery shopping lark!!

i know i won't get paid as it's my fault but how do i let them know???

I can't put the report on the system as it won't accept my visit times!

i am going to bingo on a ms this afternoon - can't wait!

Just cancel the assignment.

Ah, that'll be why then, obviously slightly different restrictions for different banks. The ones I was looking at was the regal bank and it was about switching your current account to them and says you must be prepared to use your own personal details.

There's a also a business scenario for the spanish bank, where you need to use your own details too.

Sometimes you can reschedule when this happens- maybe the deadline is next week? Worth looking at on the drop downs.

I see Gyp have changed the list of items you can order for their pizza jobs (but still no pineapple!) does anyone have any suggestions what the cheapest things to order are so I can stay within the reimbursed limit?

Thanks
