does anyone know if TNS still do the pizza visits? not seen any for a while:D

Nah, they lost the contract. The last time I did one was in May. Before that they had removed mileage and reduced expenses on it, so the signs were there, and my area manager as good as said that they reckoned they were about to lose the pizza jobs for good.

Is it important adding your photo to RE.

Hiya,

Apologies if this has been covered in previous posts, but I'm at work so can't really go reading through all 131 pages!!

I have signed up to Bare & have done (and passed) the English test & the Bare Basics test but am not sure what I do now? I have tried searching on the Job board but nothing comes up and I have tried the Help pages and the FAQ's but no luck! Can anyone tell me what my next step is?

Thanks!

Have you tried the search by country rather than the search by state?

Good question Kayleighpea, I have just today completed the Basics and have already passed the English Test. You must of read my mind. As I understand it, I am waiting for the Eng. Test to be graded and this then allows us to access some assignments.

I think we both need to sit tight and wait for their an email informing you/us of our test result.

Don't know if anybody else is planning to do any RE assignments eating at the Famished Stallion but if you are a word of warning - we tried a burger with blue cheese sauce and a steak with blue cheeses sauce and it tasted more like heated-up salad cream. So leave your taste buds at home!

I have a query about GR - I've been signed up for ages and only ever done a couple of bank jobs and a mobile visit - both of which I was explicitly asked to do by email. There seem to be tonnes of jobs in the alert thread with them, as well as suggestions on their site that they shop lots of different clients. Is there anything I can do to persuade them to let me see more jobs from more clients, or am I doomed?

The main problem with GR is that they only offer work within a very narrow range of your postcode. The best way to be offered (slightly) more work is to put nearby shopping centre postcodes as your extra addresses.

Go to My Details tab

Click on Add New Address

Add as many as you can, which is 5 in total. Make sure you tick all the Periods.

I have 5 addresses down and still don't do masses of work for them, but more than before, when I was only ever offered one bank over and over again.
