Just a quick message to HP if she's around. I did PM you to ask for the React application, but I don't know if you received my PM so I'm asking again... pretty please! Your inbox must be flooded at the moment!
What's the definitive answer on those TNS phonecalls then? I would like to do another but it does say you must have an 'active' current account. I booked one for the bank where my main account is. I have another account with one of the banks on the list, but the account is pretty much dead - has a few pence in it and hasn't been used for ages. Would people agree that's not good enough to justify accepting a second job?
As for the other TNS jobs, phonecall and a visit - personally I don't think the fee is good enough when you consider a visit (to your home) is involved. I hate people coming round anyway (I'm a miserable cow in real life!).0 -
It says you can only do one call per day, one per account and that account has to be registered for phone banking.Scaredy_Cat wrote: »Just a quick message to HP if she's around.

Completely different online :A
You can only do one different bank account every day.
I would say that second account still fits the criteria they want and I would accept it. That's a perfectly good reason to ring the bank with the question they ask.0 -

No. Are they on the last date of the visits? I wouldn't think it was personal... mind you they could have just called you to see if you will post about it on an Internet forum so they can then match a name to your MSE username!0 -
They've phoned me once or twice. I guess it's just when they're nearing a deadline and maybe they've had other people let them down.

I've had a few before. Was it a released job you picked up? That's the only situation in which they've called me.Dan
