I can't see any phone calls on RE either, just phone store jobs.

There was a couple but they went quickly. I think they were releases. One was holiday and the other was gas.

If anyone has any contacts and/or experience of RQA I'd like to hear what you've got to say, via PM pls.

Just interested in what sort of jobs you've had, how much they pay, how quick they pay up, etc etc.
I applied to join their database back in April but never heard anything. The chap I've emailed to chase a couple of times has never replied. His name begins with an L. Does anyone have any other contacts please?

They've now replied, but I'd still love to hear people's experiences and views...

hiya,
I don't know if any of you can answer this question for me - I'm doing my first assignment for gapbusters - a pizza delivery job, with a set reimbursement reimbursement.

I'm assuming that if I spend the amount they are offering to reimburse I'll get it back, but if I spend less do I just get the amount i've spent?

I've only ever worked with Amber Arch before and they just pay fees, not reimbursements and I can't seem to find an faq on the website!

sorry if i'm being a bit thick thanks in advance.

Just a bit of a heads up really. There has been a certain wave of jobs this weekend for Assosia which was marked as Private and Confidential. I recieved an e-mail this morning asking people to be extra careful as they had been made aware that some people had been discussing the jobs on open forums such as MoneySavingExpert. It was a polite enough e-mail but I think we need to make sure that we are extra careful when it comes to Assosia.

I think you'll find that what they ask you to buy will cost more than the reimbursement. Mine did - by about a pound.

Yeah I agree - if you follow the brief of what they ask you to purchase, it'll cost more than the reimbursement. I guess they figure as you don't have to leave your home, you're getting an almost-free meal and that's a good enough incentive.

really?! how rude. I must admit, I've not been massively impressed with them so far, the website seems REALLY rubbish.
