TNS are asking me to send me in the receipts for a job I did tonight, do I send them a copy and keep the originals, Ive checked the updated FAQ's on their page and it doesnt specify.....any ideas?

Can you send them a photo of the receipts by jpeg?

Sorry, just my first thought - probably wrong :rolleyes:

I've always sent in the originals and kept scanned copies for myself.

Got one benefit of being older than I might like to be - been offered a cars job :j!

Be honest now, are these easy to do? Remember it's me (green as grass) we're talking about here :rotfl:

The car jobs are fine !I quite enjoying doing them although its tough getting the salesmens hopes up for a sale.... to be honest I found my first circuit a little stressful but I really was cramming in too many on one day as these were all about 40 miles, at least, from where I live. My more recent circuits have been closer to home and have been easier.

Good luck and feel free to PM me if I can help in any way.

Hi BerryDelight,
Same happened to me few weeks ago, I sent them a copy & attached a post it note saying this was a copy but if they wanted original could they contact me on my mobile.
Had no reply & have been paid for job.

I was off for a week and just came back to find 2 emails from gyp. The first one stating I wasn't going to be allowed to return to a certain burger place, and a second, sent a few days later, saying I am no longer allowed to do any burger jobs.

I have emailed them to ask why and they stated they can't give me the exact reason because of client confidentiality and have given me 3 options of why the decision was made (it's prob best if I don't put these on here). Anyway, I was just wondering if anyone has had this before at all. I am so confused and disappointed!

To me, the fact that they told me I couldn't do a certain place and then changed to I can't do any at all means that I've done something wrong but I can't think of anything at all apart from meeting a friend as soon as left the place. But she doesn't know I do ms'ing and I knew I could meet her up after as she doesn't go there anyway. Oh! I gave her a sip of my drink afterwards but then it was almost finished anyway... could this be it?

Any ideas anyone? Also, if anyone has been through this, can you ever do them again? I.e. is this a cooling off period?

Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

They won't tell you the reason - other than the alternatives that they gave (I was a bit insulted when they told me that as they were always ringing me up and giving me a load of old flannel when they were desperate!).

I was kicked off stamps and fuel - coincidentally right after I had appalling 'shops' for both of those clients. I asked about re-instating me after a 'rest' and was told thats impossible, once you are off thats your lot! They didn't even bother telling me about the stamps until I emailed to ask why I couldn't see the jobs. DH can't do little supermarkets either - and they didn't tell him, just took them off his list.

So, basically, I reckon you are stuffed ! (Sorry)

Many thanks for your kind offer of help - I'm almost decided to just go for it, but am pondering over my cup of hot chocolate before I apply!

Gosh, it's tough in the fast lane of life isn't it :rotfl:

If you do get the jobs then you will be pleased when the payment is in your bank..... it makes it so worthwhile then !
