    Hi everybody :)

    My name is Ashley and I am completely new to mystery shopping. I signed up to various websites on Monday and have completed five assignments so far! I'm finding it fun if a little exhausting (today I was a little ambitious with booking myself three supermarket shops).

    I was just wondering how long RE usually took to review your questionaires? I'm still on my probationary period until they have looked over my report. While still on probation I can only apply for one job at a time and it's so frustrating to see all of the great MS's being posted!

    I was in the same position as you last week! my first job for them was on Sunday 1st November and my account went active on Monday 9th Nov

    Hope that helps

    Ooooo enjoy, is it by the life centre again?

    Yes. However as we were driving there, there was a sudden heavy downpour and when we got to the rink there was too much surface water so they'd had to close it for safety reasons :cry:

    I've promised to take the boys back some other time, and I'm taking Charlotte to the toddler skate on Tuesday morning next week :cool:

    They rang me with one to do today...lovely one too!:D Go on call me bad names....you know you want to!! :rotfl:

    *mutters under breath* :D

    They did call me about a month ago and abruptly asked if I would go out immediately and do a job that needed doing that day as someone had just let them down. I couldn't go as there wasn't enough time to get there and back before the boys getting in from school and Charlotte was in bed having her afternoon nap so I didn't fancy waking her up and dragging her on a job in a grotty mood. I explained this but the lady wasn't happy, so I wondered if that was why I wasn't getting anymore work.

    The annoying thing was I'd applied for the job in the first place and wouldn't have let them down if I'd been given it!
    Here I go again on my own....

    I have done 2 phone shops last month on the same day for ABAi – but I received the money for only one job. Do they tell what’s wrong with the report (if any) or they just not pay? As far I know, it is a good company – can anyone help with this please?

    I have just signed up to Tern and whats this rubbish about doing a MS in a local shop and not getting paid for it because its a trail - any one got one I can copy ?

    Anyone actually really done this are did we all make them up ?
  • Hi, an alert went out this morning for School Pencil (gift/fun) shops on ABAI - can someone PM and let me know who this is as I am sure I have this missing from my list of clients.

    Thanks very much

    Does anyone know if you can take the purchase back and get a refund with ABAI shops? I have a visit to a shop but I am pretty sure there won't be anything I will want to keep and min spend is £5 with only £10 incentive.

    I put in the ABAI school pencil alert, PM me if you want to know which one it is.

    SPC 9 (2016) #485 TOTAL £84
    SPC 10 (2017) # 485 TOTAL: £464.80
    SPC 11 (2018) #485

    I just released mine basically saying the same thing. The visit details didn't say that there was a spend involved and having to drive and park in the city centre it eats into the small profit I'd make. I'm sure I could find something to buy, but it wouldn't be something I need!
