    Consumer research international - not my cup of tea as they're american and have different ways of doing things - fees are about average but they pay by Paypal so you lose a bit on the fee.

    Americans are great- although admittedly I thought my post may have sounded a bit rude!

    Anyone done the GfK government place where you do a reveal. I did a good few but the scenario has changed a good bit. However no matter what I cannot get the test bit to come out correctly. Anyone else struggled with this. Guess I will have to phone in the morning but I hate these tests. Some of the questions are ambiguous. Some of the answers are plain stupid.

    The annoying thing is I cannot print the questionnaire with the letter of authority till I pass the test and having a new HP printer which is temeramental I will have a problem if it wont work after I phone the helpline.

    To cap it all I did the CRI phone test and failed that.

    I feel such a dummy.

    On the latest GFK one - they made a mistake and didn't update the questions for the new scenario - they should have sent you an email explaining the error, and then reset your questions. I would contact them and get them to sort it out for you...

    Oh thanks kman. You are one of the people on here always 1st in to help when you can. Another thing I am no spring chicken. I am 59 and note the age limit on these jobs is 60 so amybe soon I wont hardly be able to do any MS's

    Guess what my scenarion question is. I am a single parent. There are gonna fall about laughing at that one so I am going to ask GfK to change it.

    Mind you I love GfK. For anyne else on here as elderly as me FYI I did a phone forecast pension thing a while ago and discovered if I work till I am 64 and defer my pension I can get a lump sum then of £44,000 ( taxed though but maybe HRW Timmne can advise me on some tax dodges oops evasions he will call it.

    Kman are CRI worth the bother. I don't mind paypal as I have it anyway for ISC.
