    Hello all,

    I'm a long time lurker and have been MSing for quite some while. (why do I sound like I'm at an AA meeting??)

    I know that I am not allowed to mention client names but I was wondering how to find out which company carried out the mystery shopping for a particular store. Is there any way to find out?

    A friend of a friend MS's for this shop but is vague about telling me who she gets them through

    Hope that all makes sense!! TIA

    Can't help specifically with that one but I am looking for the company that does the mystery shops for Spearmint Rhinos and The Dolls House (I'd be prepared to travel) anyone know just pm me.

    Whenever I log into Abai and click on a shop and then search it kicks me back to the log in page. Is anyone else having this problem?

    Sorry to hear that Drea. My OH is unemployed and has been mystery shopping as well to help make ends meet. I work fulltime and with us both mystery shopping we're barely making it above water.

    Try to apply to loads of companies in order to get more work.

    Good luck :)

    Yes it is a common problem and I have posted about it a couple of times over the last week.

    I am obliged to ascoil for helping me with it. It appears that a combination of some browsers and firewalls create the effect. What you need to do is delete all your browser cookies then come out of your browser, then start itt up again and the problem should be solved. Good luck to you

    Thanks scotsbob

    That's done the trick, however, do I have to do this every time I log in or does this mean it's fixed ?

    That's very true. I can think of numerous occasions you've misled and all-out lied to me. I wouldn't trust you as far as I can throw you. :mad::mad:



    (Sarcasm, in case anybody's having a sarcasm detector failure!)


    How very DARE you...?!!:T:rotfl: I'd like to think you could throw me a respectable distance unless, of course, you're referring to the recent spate of ill-advised GAP jobs I've taken on... oh dear.!:o

    I'm still waiting for my initial shopper test to be graded with TERN... I did it at the end of June. Has anyone else had to wait this long? Would like to do some work for them, and I'm gutted as I just missed out on the glasses jobs...

    Is it worth me contacting them? If I can at all?

    I got mine back within three days of doing it, I think, so it might be worth dropping them a non-confrontational email.;)
