Is it right that you need a business email to get phone jobs with RE does anyone know - Anna x

I think it's only the business enquiries for a chain of hotels that require one.

Yep same as my local store so I accepted the job. Should easily be able to do in it my lunch hour but it will probably be sods law that there will be no-one to serve when I arrive! Sorry Annasbee, I grabbed the job just a min ago. It downloaded later than the other ones.

No probs Pennies - got a sunday lunch so Im happy !!

Pinkprincess39 - any sort of payment in kind is taxable, so if the voucher is for, say, £10 then you have £10 of taxable income.

I asked this a while ago, and was told they needed to be declared the same as cash - sorry!

Not just the business enquiries, it's for the chain itself, I think. Even to get offered any of the jobs, some people said you needed a work email.

Well done:T! I am not brave enough to put my name down for that type of job (yet!)

On a different note... I've just noticed that I didn't get paid for a job that I did for Bare last month. I said I didn't accept payment by paypal but can't remember if entered bank details. Does anyone know how to find this out?

Thanks.
