Only 4 in Nov so far as the ones last night I couldn't make in the timeframe so have got some catching up to do!!

I only have 4 booked for nov. I seem to keep missing them :mad:. I like those doughnuts but what with all the burgers and chicken I have been eating lately it might be a good thing that I missed them.

Grrr, someone just stole my station! The station jobs are only really worth it if I cna get a couple of them because you have to buy a ticket to get past the barriers, and I just accept 1, then try to accept the second but get a message saying its just been taken by another shopper. Typical![/QUOTE

Lol, oh dear. Well I can relax as I'm not the guilty party!! Are you talking about Colchester station though as I can see one assignment for there?

Ahem, Miss Qwerty. I think you'll find you stole my station.
I took one a couple of days ago though, not tonight. I might take the one you released though, as never yet had to buy a ticket to get through the barrier. Can't beat a nice 'free' latte.

Has anyone worked for these previously and what kind of experience have they had. Signed up a week or so ago and just did my first visit yesterday ( went well i think). How regular do they send out assignments and are they prompt payers ?.

So in other words it's a scam.

either you get paid or you don't.

There are scams claiming to be about Mystery Shopping out there, but they don't involve you actually going to do a mystery shop AFAIK.

If you don't get paid, you've either done it wrong or you've annoyed the company somehow. Keep in contact with the company if you have any problems is my advice, even over small things. And best to telephone, unless they say not to. (One will fire you for phoning!)

As you're a contractor, not an employee, they can be harsh. But mostly, fair.

Long-story short: Definitely not a scam. We help improve retail for everyone.

But yet no one can actually say what the rate of pay is?

Why don't you try reading the first few posts of this thread??

This thread is 45 pages long and nowhere within the first 4 pages does it answer my question. Surely it's simple enough; either these companies pay people - or they don't!
