So I called RE and finally got through to them this morning about the expired assignments I booked on Friday - just as I was calling them I received an email saying they had been deallocated as I hadn't booked a date within 48 hours! I also got 4 points taken off me.

They apologised and said they would give me the points back and said that if they hadn't been snapped up straight-away by someone else they would have given them back to me ... stupid automated system being so efficient!! hee hee :P (it was a doughnut place so I'm not surprised!)

I accepted a MS for RE. It's an expired one but I emailed them to try and rearrange the date for Wednesday. Still not heard back and getting a bit frustrated now because I've been on probation for AGES and this is my opportunity to get off it.

Don't email them for this problem - call them and explain. They usually are grateful that someone wants to do them and will rearrange the date to suit you if they can.

I've seen these on GAP once - they were a competitor to a pizza company, but I only saw 1 restaurant for 1 date and it was last month.

Just had an email from RE....looks like they still cant get anyone to do those bloomin Pharmacy jobs...

Yep - I had the same email!! I have my parents' area listed as one of my alternate areas so when I go visit them I can fill in some time with shops. There have been 27 pharmacies there for a loooooong time!!

Has anyone ever done any work for REACT? I'm just wondering when they pay. I did one assignment for them last month and can't find any info re payment anywhere. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

They pay promptly in 2-3 weeks after the job is done and will email a remittance slip as well.

I have accepted my first bar job for RE which im doing this Sat, pitiful fee but good reimbursment, the assignment notes are very vague and make no mention of me uploading a receipt, therefore should I submit my expenses as the full reimbursement?? The reimbursment is to cover entry fee and drinks but wondering if I could just claim the whole lot? Any suggestions would be most welcome!!

I did, too - still only 7 with me. Can someone shed some light?! EDIT - Thanks for the PMs, people!

In desperation for a job I've just taken an RE pharmacy...

I did my first gap burger shop today but stupidly forgot to get a receipt (schoolboy error or what?) what do you think I should do - I take it I won't get paid but should I submit the report anyway? or email to say I didn't get the receipt before submitting? I did everything else properly!

Thanks for your help
