    Steph,

    A lot of the times it's all about luck as to when you check the websites. Make sure you subscribe to the Alerts thread on this website to get emails when jobs come in.

    Sign up to some of the ones on the first page but it is very popular so there's no such thing as most appropriate in your area.


    Thanks Nads...I have just signed up with as many as I could on the first page of this thread (before I have to go and get the potatoes on :D)

    Retail Maxim was a bit of an effort huh? They seem to want a lot more info than everyone else! Those questions....:confused: but I got through them....

    With RE - you only get back what you spend, eg. reimbursement £10, you buy a pencil for £1 - you will get £1 back.

    Had a manic morning rushing all over the place to get several jobs done. Did some stamp jobs and the level of service was soo different in each. One of them had a young girl who couldn't be bothered to even speak to me - it was very difficult trying to get anything done or answered all I got were grunts! When I submitted the report it's gone to the pending database where it will be checked. :mad: I often get this - I must be really bad or something. :confused:

    Hi all

    I signed up with RE and MSE early last week...and have absolutely no available jobs yet!! Its not that I am missing them - I check loads of times every day, and have checked my profile, and am available for all jobs in my postcode city and suburbs area which is fairly large...population 200k+ I am in the NE of Scotland....can anyone here advise of any one else I can register with that is more appropriate for my area?

    Thanks
    Steph
    TNS often have jobs further north but why not just register with all the companies on page 1 and see what comes up.
    Couldn't think of anything witty to say so just keeping the space until I can :(

    march is much busier than feb for me
    33 done by end of today
    13 more booked in so far till the 20th

    feb had 28 for the whole month lol !

    Number of jobs only tells half the story. If they are mostly for a rubbish fee then it doesn't amount to much.

    Most of us could have done 33 by today as well if we all did all those cheap burger, pizza type jobs from you-know-who.

    Same. Somebody posted a couple of days ago that they were advised to add another postcode, in the city centre, to their GR account. I tried that, and now, a couple of days later, I've suddenly got a job after months of nothing! So thank you to whoever it was that posted that!

    I already live in the central area of my city, and still haven't seen any jobs here :(

    Don't worry you're not the only one I've not had a job from them for a couple of months now.

    Add one for a local suburb. I added the city's Royal Mail depot :p
