Err, hardly!! There wouldn't be any other ms companies left in business if that's the case. Granted they have won a lot of new contracts from competitors lately but there are still loads with other companies if you know where to look. I just don't get why everyone wants to work for RE..ridiculous scenarios, long winded questionnaires, pathetic fee, if any. I could go on.

Each to their own I guess but you are never gonna make much money working for them!

Has anyone done a RE betting shop today and found the bet they were told to place has been replaced with an Irish version, most of the questionnaire is completely irrelvant.

I think that the 'Irish' version is actually the Irish Lottery and not a replacement for the 49's, which is a completely different thing. I think you may have been wrongly advised in the shop. :eek:

Hi all - I see from the beginning of this thread that if a current Retail Eyes MS'er refers me they earn £1.50 - anyone care to refer me? I'd love to join, and always happy to earn someone else £1.50! By pm is best, I guess? New here, so not too sure of the etiquette of this board.

Cheers,
xx

Just finished my MS for TNS for a nightclub - good lord what an idiot - the enhanced fee was sooo not worth the hassle of being in Liverpool City centre at midnight the weekend after payday! SOBER! :mad: Drunken idiots

I had to wait 17 mins to be served - nightmare.

Best bit was bloke in the queue offered to nuy me a drink - I'm such a idiot - I said no worried about timings etc - but should have said yes, got a receipt, free drink and paid for said drink too!! Next time

Would say never again but have another booked for next friday night. The fun. :rotfl:

As you yourself have just raised the question of etiquette, I hope you won't mind if I mention that is is not considered good etiquette to mention clients or fees on these threads.
I mention this because you have another thread on this forum in which you do both. No offence, you couldn't be expected to know unless it was pointed out to you.
