  • Shall we have a sweepstake?

    "Which MS site is going to crash next?"

    In the last 24 hours there have been problems with RE, ESA, and now Gap

    So, place your bets?

    My guess: Grass Roots!

    I have Max's email address. I shall email him shortly when ever I get onto the Gyp site. It is as slow as a week in the jail.

    He's most probably banned again from here. Someone on here ( you know who you are but are too cowardly to admit it) keeps reporting him.

    Thanks Holly :-) I had to cancel my first mystery shop coz I was snowed in so would quite like to start with Helion as Max sounds really nice. Very annoying that someone wants him banned from here, can understand if he was advertising I suppose but as far as I saw he was just answering peoples questions.

    You do have to register as self employed, but if you earn under the personal allowance in a tax year (approx £6K), it will say no tax payable when you do your tax return.

    I think you can earn £20 a week on income support, but ask on the benefits board to make sure as I'm not certain.
    Here I go again on my own....
