Help please!

There is a quick supermarket on TNS that should have been done last week. It won't let me accept this job as it says the date is invalid. Is there any way into "tricking" it into giving me the job? As said supermarket is at the bottom of my road and I need bread to make a sandwich!

This is something you would send a request to your AM for but I think they are all leaving today. In the FAQs on their website there is a contact us email - you could try that.

Thanks, how come the AMs are leaving? I liked that system

I'm sure this has been asked before, but why do RE only ever seem to have visits for one particular branch of a dry cleaners, in the Lake district? I would hate to work there as they seem to get MSd about three times a week!

And why can I see them, even though they're miles outside my area?

Likewise, I'm over a 100 miles from this dry cleaners and it has been appearing on my list for weeks.

I tried to grab one this morning but could not work out how. You can not do it if you have done it in the past 4 months

Never done this shop before. Have emailed my AM and the contact us link so will see what happens.

Interested to know if anyone's ever seen another branch of this chain on there? As I do need some dry cleaning, but in all my years of using RE have only ever seen this one store appear.

Maybe it's a pilot for a new client?

I am gutted. Just registered with TNS...says they'll get back to me in 7 - 10 days. I'm just being impatient but I was hoping it would be much sooner. Ah well.

I must live closer to the lakes than you then Andy and randomly it doesn't show up for me at all. Clearly they understand my lack of dry cleaning needs.

Agency criteria for the assignments.

So discrimination all round...

No Males with tendencies or maybe just shopping for a partner...

No one size 14 who might normally shop there for bargain or style they like...

and presumably on your 55th Birthday you no longer shop for clothes.

It's not discrimination. The store requires a mystery customer that blends in with the majority of their clientele so the shopper is not recognised.

I haven't seen the brief for this store, but in other clothes stores I've had to check the changing room, and put an item on and ask the assistant if it looks ok. A man wouldn't be able to do that and a skinny lady would look stupid asking if a size 16+ piece of clothing looks ok on her.

I figured they're female shops, so what?

I have seen one in Cheshire on there as well and it is at least within my search criteria. I'm just holding out for the one at the end of my street.
