i have shopped both hsbc and barclays for different ms companies to that before. wonder if that is actually true as can't see why other companies want their clients a secret if they are happy to list them if it is true m&S seem abit random for them as the rest are all financial companies

think i can guess what company tg is referring to based on previous discussions but if is invitation only not much you can do! :rolleyes:

I have a Barclays job tomorrow and guess who that is with ? :rotfl:

I think some businesses use more than one MS company. Maybe for different divisions? There is one supermarket that I've done jobs for via two different companies. Plus I saw a visit that I didn't get on a third site.

I didnt think for one minute it would be :rotfl: but I am sure that 30 minutes on google and some one some where will slip up. I am not really that bothered as I have more work than I can cope with anyway but thought I would put my findings on.

lol i have just tried it for a company i buy from and found out they do their own MS using real customers.

on the discussion board the people are discussing one of abai's clients by name and saying which company they are with

Thanks Becles,is it just a matter of taking down old posters and putting up new ones or is there more to do?

It depends on the job. The brief will state everything that you need to do in store before you leave.

quick google search shows this may not be true but

Consumer Intelligence
Very impressive client list includes Marks & Spencer, Barclays, Churchill, HSBC, Budget etc. Located in bristol. In their own words:
"Consumer Intelligence tests, compares and benchmarks the performance of competing organisations using an in-house mystery shopping centre and external consumer panels. All data and findings are judged against five key criteria: accurate, meaningful, relevant, timely and useful.

Aren't Consumer Intelligence the company which mystery shops insurance companies? So it would be slightly different than mystery shopping Marks and Sparks and Barclays bank themselves.
