    does anyone know anything about abai?/

    i have just signed up and they only have up market dept store on there. they are only paying £10 but want you to buy things?

    can i go to a few departments then take the stuff back to get the £10 fees - not sure if it's worth it.

    If after making a purchase for an ms job, you feel you don't need the item then you can take it back. But, scan your original receipt before getting a refund and ask yourself if you could maybe get more for it if you flogged it on ebay?! Secondly, as far as I am aware you cannot get refunds for pharmaceutical drugs.

    BTW - hiya everyone. I do pop on and nose now and again, but I am super duper busy. Hope you are all busy with the Christmas ms-ing!:D

    Hi Cookinmummy. Nice to see you on here.

    You are correct:..... for legal reasons you cannot return drugs or cosmetics.

    Yes you can return these.

    RE had a load of jobs this morning, but they all vanished! I did nab two of them before they disappeared, so maybe they'll be going on again later today. They disappeared way too fast for it to be others getting them. Oh, and it's jobs for wine shops.

    Same happened to me but it is because you're only allowed 2. If people drop out later which they often do, they'll come up as available again; so keep looking. 2 free bottles of wine....NICE.

  • Morning all, I thought I'd share a positive experience with you that I had with a new mystery shopping company today...:A

    I received an email last week, looking for someone to do a 'bank job' near me. It's not an agency I've worked for before, but they're affiliated to one that I registered with ages ago.

    Anyway.....I got the job, and completed it yesterday.:T

    This morning I received an email thanking me for my report and saying it was of excellent quality, and they hoped to have more work for me soon.:beer:

    No quibbling, no receipt needed, the fee was about 4 times what RE pays.:eek:

    So overall - am a happy bunny - hopefully I haven't jinxed myself now, to never get paid!!!!!:p:p:p
    :grin: Save me from spending...

    gap have cancelled my pizza for "operational reasons" :( any ideas why?

    I don't know what is going on with GAP, I had a email to say that due to changes I would no longer be able to carry out any postal services visits. So they cancelled all my visits to them for this month :mad:

    Also last week they phoned and asked me to carry out 2 very urgent assignments and when I agreed they said they would email the paperwork and low and behold no paperwork was emailed and no showing of assignments on the system.:eek:

    They also advised they was work for the bookies at least for this month???
