    ...and then there are all of the children, infirm and elderly who are employed by the active shoppers to sit refreshing their computer screens all day everyday:D

    LOL. Very seldom you get any really funny comments here, nice one. Different class altogether.

    PS, Can't see any DIY on TNS?

    Does anyone know what the criteria for these DIY stores are? I'm female, 41 and can't see them. I'm assuming you're male Matt567 and can't see them, so assume it's not a male / female thing.

    Is it age? Would anyone who can see them like to divulge their age?

    Male, 49, and yes, I can see them. They did email me to say I could take up to 4 jobs, but as they're mostly for September, I can't plan that far in advance...:o

    I saw them last week, managed to get one and then received a nice email welcoming me to the 'company' panel adding I should see them all in future. I'm female and 53.

    I saw them for the first time last week and selected one. I didn't get the welcome email but I can now see all the September ones as well. I'm female and 39.

    I'm doing a Stamp shop for RE tomorrow, got to ask about savings and ask if they are covered by the Irish Government compensation scheme? Uhm .. Irish? I'm visiting a stamp shop in Dartford, Kent!!!

    I've sent them an email but 've never had them reply to a query before and I need to go out really early tomorrow to dosomething else before I do the job so wont get a chance to phone them.

    What should I do? Just ask another question about the product?

    I might be completely wrong about this but I have a funny feeling that some of the saving accounts are run by one of the Irish Banks so that might explain the question. (Try phoning before you go out in the morning)

    Have fun with the survey - it is a work of art even by RE standards. (especially as all that happened in mine was being handed a brochure :rolleyes:)
