    That is nothing. I once did a shop and part way through my conversation with the salesman, another member of staff came over and said to him "Someone's here to see you". The salesman excused himself and after a few minutes I went to look for him. I found him near the enterance talking to another guy. I thought at first he was talking to another customer until I heard the phrase "She's not great looking but she's got massive t!ts"... :eek:

    And there was me thinkinf "Andy" was short, in your case, for Andrew.

    I got it wrong Andrea, sorry!

    p.s did you bag any of the Sandwich jobs in your area? I got a couple as I'll be in your neck of the woods early July.

    I'm hoping someone can help (have tried a search, but can't find the answer).

    I've started MSing with Retail Eyes, and have compoleted three jobs. THe first was due for payment on 10 Jun, and slipped to 25 Jun and was added to the second job. Payment for both has now slipped to 10 Jula nd been added to the third job.

    Am I doing something wrong? Do I have to NOT do a job for a few weeks to get paid? I don't have any messages from them to tell me I need to do anything extra to get paid, so I'm a bit clueless!

    Thanks!

    Sounds very odd to say the least.

    I'd ring them to query it and to express your dissatisfaction.

    Their number is on their site, in the corner, they're generally very nice, polite, and helpful when you call.

    Have you definately entered all your bank details ? I had my first payment carried over and then I realised that I had not supplied all the information they required, maybe its worth double checking . HTH

  • Could it be GFK?

    A few people have suggested GFK , however it did not tie up with what I was expecting .... but I think I must have missed a job out somewhere , just waiting for GFK to update so I can check then.
  • Just went and checked GFK and the payment info is showing now .... silly me forgot to record a job , so am £12 better off than I thought . At least I can stop racking my brains as to what the other job was now....

    I was going to say the same. It's likely that you haven't put in full/correct bank details.

    I did the same to be honest.

    I was £4 over what I was expecting, turns out that they included a job that I did on the 19th as payment this month, even though their site says cut off is 17th!

    Ah well lol :rotfl::T

    Hi
    I have a question about the speadsheet I was kindly sent :j

    If I paid £4.93 for an item as reimbursement and got paid £5 fee

    Do I put the 4.93 in the item bought column
    And the £5 fee in the paid box ?


    Or

    Do I have to write a description of the item ie.. shower gel
    And put the £9.93 in the paid box ?



    Sorry to be dim blush blush blush

    For the purposes of the spreadsheet, under "pay" enter the total of your reimbursement + your fee.
