:mad: I'm trying to submit a report on RE but it keeps saying that I need to add additional comments to 2 of my questions - I've written loads!!! Anyone know how I can get round this?

Try removing what you have written (cut and paste into a word doc so you don't have to write it all again). Save the report then log out. When you log back in hopefully it will have cured itself and you can cut and paste your essay in again.

I have had this happen a couple of times and after doing this it submitted ok.

Yes apply in bulk, you have as much (or as little) chance of getting any assigned.

Put whatever you want for your reason, it seems to make little difference as far as we can tell. The last one I got I had just put "I will be in this town on this date and can do the assignment. I have read and understood the instructions". Others have put in mini CVs and still not got the jobs. They are a law unto themselves!:)

I just put that I can do the job on xx date and leave it at that. Sometimes you get them and sometimes you don't. There's no point writing an essay. I have had two emails today for shops that I have already applied for and are still sitting in my applications! I think I'll phone them Monday :eek:.

OMG that doesn't sound like RE at all :eek:

Now that you are lulled into a false sense of security they will bombard you with pointless queries about stuff that's already explained in your reports

:rotfl:probably lol, just to remind me why I said I wasn't going to pick up any more jobs for that cr***y company!

Hi everyone. Was just going through my list of MS companies and came across one called Secret Shoppers. Have never managed to do a job for them, but there are loads of jewellers on there at the moment. The fees quite high, but its paid in euros. They're not mentioned on the 1st page of the thread, so thought I would mention them to everyone...and no, I dont work for them - I dont even get a referral! That said, I dont know what they are like to work for, so dont blame me if they turn out to be another RE!:j

Can you give me the URL for them and I'll add it straight away!

Thanks,

I see RE have nicked another of GR's clients. The "celestial" electrical store. No fee just reimbursement but in total works out less than GR pay. *Sigh*

Haven't RE had this one for ages? I did this store several times last year for RE...... before they got silly with fees :mad:. The first one was around March last year IIRC

Although they don't pay in €, they pay in US$ - the fees aren't bad, but they only offer one type of job, don't always assign to you and expect a lot of writing in return. And they pay VERY slowly, and only via paypal. In the fickle world of MSing that worries me a little, because judging by their website they are a small outfit which always makes me a bit nervous because you might submit the work and then they might go out of business before they pay you!

I've spoken to them a couple of times and they seem really nice ....just like normal people (as opposed to the jumped-up power-crazed j3rks you encounter sometimes elsewhere....;))
