Very wise. Run as fast as you can in the opposite direction if they ask for money up front! :beer:

so is a company posting an alert normal? I have not been registered to receive alerts for long so this is the first time I have seen this occur.

It can happen. The board jobsworths don't like it, it's 'advertising' apparently - and there's some troll who seems to pop up every time a company posts and tells them off then report it. Generally, they're advised to post alerts a little more anonymously than the one who posted recently...

Just leave it on your list. I had one that never rang, and got paid for it. RE did call and say why hadn't I done the report, and would I like to release it. I explained that they hadn't rung yet, and they left it there. Eventually it disappeared of its own accord and I did not have any point docked. I wouldn't wait in for them to ring.

thanks cte - i just seem to have had a bad day with RE

OK, perhaps worried was the wrong word. I know it's not guaranteed and I'm not going to loose sleep over it or anything, but I do like having this little extra income as well as my regular wages (and I do appreciate I'm lucky to have a regular wage in these times). What I really like about MS is that one of RE's paydays is 4 days before my regular payday, so when I get to the end of the month and have no money left, RE put a few pounds in my bank to keep me going. (I know I should budget better - but this saves me having to eat 10p noodles for a week!)

I too am expecting a massive upload of jobs, followed by RE's site crashing. I just hope I'm around when it happens!

Yes that must be handy about RE, you sure dont want to have to live on 10p noodles ! Lets hope that this is just a little temporary lull and that this time next week we will have more work than we know what to do with ! Fingers crossed .

Morning all

I noticed a few pages back that people were saying that RE payment details on the home screen were wrong or not accounting for jobs that had been done.

Is this still the case as I am missing several payments from the last week from a variety of clients.

Cheers Paul

A DFWers dream!

15 phone jobs one the 3 lettered site with the orange logo for phone calls to be made today. Requirements for all are that you are over 25 and have bank or credit card charges or have been mis-sold PPI.

2 each folks.

I guess it might be a good idea to bring this to their attention Paul just in case.

This is a strange one...... Just had a friend request on Facebook - a place I dont mention MSing. From a company which rhymes with "Felix" saying they are a MS company and they will soon contact me with details of available work!

I have this also but i want to know who gave out my email to them. My MS email, I only use for MS and my facebook account is under another email.
