Happy April Fools day from RE?The early bird gets the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese :cool:0

Such a shame as Gap's report for that underground shop could be done in five minutes flat. I've not seen the questionnaire from RE but I dread to think what's like. I'm hoping my area is still with Gap.0

Since we have a fair few folks online and it's coming to the end of the tax year I thought we could perhaps share our Heroes and Zeroes of Mystery Shopping? (cue trumpets)
Just like all good awards ceremonies, you don't have to give reasons if you don't want!:A Heroes of Mystery Shopping :A

Great service, excellent fees but a huge lack of work... for me.

Considerably improved service but some Krypton Factor-esqu briefs let the company down.
In 3... Aba-i
Limited amount of work but good fees and questionnaires are not excessive.
In 2... GRG
Despite not getting much work from them and sometimes
lengthy questionnaires, they are very quick to complete and the fees good and the payment quick. The customer service is also of high quality.
In 1... GfK
For provided good fees, relatively quick payment, thorough and accurate briefs and professional service over the phone. My favourite.

Despite a lack of stiff competition, one company outshone all others in their treachory and overcome all odds and boundaries of decency to snatch this award.
We (I) feel that had there been a competition between this company and Joseph Fritzl for Father of the Year, Jospeh Fritzl would be the first find a small dark corner to cower in.
Winning for it's truly appalling behaviour throughout the year, my winner of the 2008 Villain of the Year award goes to....

Oooh Nads. I love you to bits . Careful I did a spoof take the p*** out of RE and guess what they identified me and let me know it by changing my name when I log in as ******* aka ******.
And please everyone I mean this kindly and not getting at any of you but instead of moaning ( understandably) on here about the increased questionnaire and why the bloody photo with the underground jobs. PHONE RE. Ask for the person doing the account and ask WHY>
If enough doing the moaning phone and moan at them maybe they will get the message. But knowing RE probably not.Clique member no 1.:D0 -

I was in the same boat as you so I didn't know that the website had gone down till I wanted to save my answers, then it kicked me out. I hope that I don't have to re type it all in again. Hope that it back up tonight sometimes before 11pm. What are the hopes of that happening. :rotfl: :rotfl:cross stitch cafe #90 UFO's 6 to finish in 2013, and loads of new kits to boot

All the underground jobs I can see are in London. Other than that theres a handful of airport jobs.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.
