They're not new ones, it's the remaining 6 pages of the 18 that went on the other day.

Ive just checked my online banking and realised I dont have any money creditted from Bare yet - is showing as paid on the 20th May does anyone else use RBS and know how long it takes to show up given the usual delays in changing the currency etc?

I have an account with RBS and my BARE money was paid easily within a week of them saying they'd sent it.

did you perhaps put the wrong IBAN/BIC/Swift/whatever numbers down?

Oh OK, sorry! The only ones I can see are the ones that have been there all along.

Nope thought that and just checked them - its exactly the same as I have on gap (as I copied and pasted them to make sure) and I receive payment for them perfectly well. Will drop Bare an email to query it then. While youre here UKM what sort of fee do they charge for the conversion?
As I'm tempted to reopen my spanish bank account and have it paid in to that for my holiday spends when I head out to see the 'rent in the Canaries (would just be a pain for sorting out tax etc).

No probs... I can definitely see new ones, so perhaps I should have just sent the alert to myself...;););) There were 7 pages, now back down to 5...

I don't like the big ones, but TNS fast supermarkets are easy-peasy compared to the big ones and , in my opinion , worth doing.

Same here - only done the big one once and never again! Too much to do for the fee - but the fast ones are easy & not too bad as I usually manage to nab a few in the same area.

It's a shame you have to wait four months to do them again, but we are lucky here in that we have loads of them so usually manage a few every month!:D

I've only seen the 2 I've just nabbed - perhaps they're putting them on a few at a time in different areas?

Had a snigger to myself in an electrical shop today. Had to make an enquiry about a printer, so in I went, browsed for a while, then made my enquiry and purchased the required small item.

As I was standing at the check-out, I was paying, I heard the Manager say to the girl who I'd spoken to "Watch out when you're talking about printers, we're expecting a Mystery Shopper this weekend. I always spot them so I'll take over when they come in". :j :j :j

He's in for a shock when the report comes in and he realises he's not as good at MS-spotting as he thinks LOL!!!!
