Hi,
No never got paid for it as they said that the company had an email that was definitely connected to the visit, and of course they wouldn't take my word for it.:mad: I saw it came up again last week...surprisingly I decided to give it a miss .

Typical RE - they're soooooo annoying. I've just sent them an email saying they're inderpaying me by 24p....:o:o:o Any other firm I wouldn't bother, but they're so tight.:mad: I ordered an extra drink on a visit last week and of course they're expecting me to pay for the more expensive one. p.i.s.s. takers.:money:

Yep. Here's 2 pointers:

(1) Read the first 2 posts on this thread. I didn't put them there for the good of my health.

(2) Get a spell checker on your PC. "alot" and "Mysty" are spelled wrong. I'm not being facetious, the mystery shopping companies want people who can spell and use grammar correctly.

Inderpaying?

What did they say they'd pay? If the reimbursement was, say, £30 and you spent £30.24 then no, they haven't underpaid you.

All I seem to see on GfK is banks - is it like ABAi where you have to add clients (checked page one, but it doesn't seem so) ? Or is it just my area? I don't mind the bank jobs, I just never seem to see any of the other GfK jobs people mention.

As you ask the reimbursement was £25 I spent about £16......as we all know RE are just notoriously tight.:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

If I had told you 5 years ago you'd say that one day I can just imagine how you'd have replied :rotfl:

Yes, I checked them a week or so ago as I was checking my payment details. Made sure to select that I enjoy everything on the hobbies/interests section :rolleyes: and was accurate about my bank accounts, shopping channels I've shopped with etc.
