I've usually found Aba-i to get back to emails really quickly (within 10 mins really) so hold out for a bit longer or maybe try ringing? If you've done the assignment it's definitely worth contacting them so you don't risk non payment.

Tried ringing and emailing and I really am getting no luck. No one answered my call - put through to an answerphone. No nobody has replied to my email. I'm a little lost now.

On the plus side I've nabbed myself 3 pizza jobs....so lots of free meals for me! Yey!

I've been asked to use excel for a mystery shop report and assumed my PC had it.Now I've checked and I only have microsoft works task launcher and office word viewer.Where would I get excel for nowt and has anyone else used this format for a report? Does it work with cells like a calculation or have I got the wrong end of the stick?:rotfl:Any advice greatly appreciated.

I use Excel spreadsheets for auditing reports and there's never been any formulas involved. I use Excel a lot at work so I'm pretty advanced with Excel and find it dead easy.
I'm not sure if there's any freeware software that'll open the spreadsheet though... could you not go to the local library and use the computers there? Or have a friend with Excel?

Try downloading Open Office or Star Office, they both have good spreadsheet software which can save files in the excel filetype.

I've just done a MS for Abai...how do I fill in info for them. I tried clicking on the my visits link in the hope that would show it too me and I might get somewhere. But nothing happens...it doesn't even change pages. All the orange links at the top just disappear instead.

Anyone?

I have this problem sometimes and find I have to use a different browser...Internet Explorer always seems to work but Firefox can be a bit hit and miss. HTH

Has anyone done a casino job and can give me some tips and advice. I've never been to a casino before and it says I will be given £50 contribution towards meals, drinks and play time on the casino. How will I be able to get a receipt for the money I play in the casino as it asks me to play the slot machines as well as on the tables.

Get a receipt for the meal, as your proof that you were there. Then just claim £50 in expenses, as you can't get receipts for the slots, tables etc.

Right I've emailed them...but nothing yet. Not really sure what to do as I'll be busy the rest of today?

What browser are you using? I sometimes have problems with ABAi using Firefox but it's fine with IE.
