    I've just completed my first job with RE that should take me off probation. How long before I can apply for a new job?

    I submitted my first report Saturday morning, and got a reply Sunday night to say they'd reviewed it, and I was off probation. I didn't even get any feedback! woohoo:beer:

    So shouldn't be too long.

    I've still never seen a job on MCE! Did anyone on here see the cinemas? Are they all down south? I know all their hairdressers are down south.

    I'd have assumed they were a chain as I think all the cinema chains are national, but maybe not? :confused:

    I`m down south and in a whole year have only done one hairdressers and a carpet shop! No cinema`s for me.

    Thank you all for your replies,

    Now for my next question..........sorry, still a newbie..........

    I've just completed my first job with RE that should take me off probation. How long before I can apply for a new job?

    At the moment it says I can't have more than one job at a time, and now I've got a prescription I'd like to use!!1 (how ironic)
    It took much longer for me Matt, I wonder if it has something to do with the time of month you do your first one. My first had no probs or queries and yet it took six weeks before I was off prob and able to select a second job. I did mail them and I think it was that mail that prompted them to get me t o "Active" - so if its not PDQ I'd send them a mail. Anna x
    I'm wondering why a round pizza comes in a square box - :rolleyes:

    Is it just me or do RE assignments seem to take ages to get graded lately?

    Anyone done a job for GFK that uses Veritel? When I dial the number on the coversheet, after the number has dialled the phone goes back to the dialling tone. Is that what should happen?

    Mine are pending for a good few days at the moment, instead of next day clearing.

    I've only been with MCE for a couple of weeks and I've seen three jobs - haven't been quick enough to catch them though. The cinema chain isn't a large one but we have two cinemas near me hence why I can see them. And they have to be completed at funny times too which is awkward.

    When did you do the jobs? They pay you on the 24th (ish) of the NEXT month ... so if you did a job on 1st July and another on 31st July, you'd get paid for both on 24th August.

    Don't think it's anything to do with the IBAN number, I'm sure all Gap have from me is sort code and account number
