With the latest sandwich shops on RE - you have to take a pic, who has ever got a sandwich that looks like the one on the left.

I agree - but hopefully far more use to the management of the shop, rather than a photo of the outside of their shop! :rotfl:

One of my RE report has just been approved - points added for job completed and disappeared from Payment Pending instantly but it doesn't show up for payment. Should I send them a query?

I'd give it til the end of the day and then raise the query-it may "vanish" whilst in processing from pending to paid ?

So, hello!!

Hi Sophie - its been my first full month of mystery shopping too!

Also thank you Jo for the spreadsheet - very similar to mine (ive got extra columns and data as I have to store everything ) so I know Ive not got something missing!

As for RE tons of jobs showing but none are actually anywhere near me so nothing I can do I now have work from today right through to 7th (apart from sunday when ive been banned from doing any by partner;)) so I shouldnt be so greedy! I was just hoping for something the following week or things that are next door to what Im already doing.

It takes up to about 1/2 hr for it to show up for payment. Leave it a couple of hours and if it still hasn't shown up then give them a ring.

I can only see 14, and most of those are airport jobs...

The same thing's just happened to me. Sounds like a gremlin so I think we just need to be patient.

Question about the sandwich jobs, that RE and GAP both seem to do - I've only ever seen this firm on GAP, and when people post in the alerts thread about RE they tend to say it's in London. So is it a regional thing? I'm in Yorkshire, just wondering if anyone has ever seen this firm on RE in Yorkshire?

Also, is anyone else finding work's dried up again? I had loads for RE at the start of the month and quite a few for GAP. All I have booked now is 2 pubs and a phone shop next week. I'm hoping next month's big waves of jobs will be released soon (and that I haven't already missed them all!)

And is there any way to stop GR emailing me to tell me a job is available in my area because it's a bank job and I used to work in that branch and know all the staff.

Hi Andy,

Yes I have seen these jobs in Yorkshire; on RE they're nationwide and AFAIK include all branches. Gap just seem to do a selection of branches I think.

I've got quite a bit of work planned now, but am looking forward to ABAi's next release of jobs. (And looking forward to the remaining payments I'm due from them also!)

Don't think you can stop GR from offering you the bank.....give them a ring they're really nice.
