Mystery shopping thread xiii ** please don't mention client names on here **

I sort of missed what happened with the old alerts thread....has it gone for good or is someone handling trying to get it back? I must admit I found it quite useful for anticipating the release of jobs.

I have not received any alerts since the 'blip' with it a few days ago, do I need to register again?

I think you do. I did and have been receiving the alerts ok.

I have just received an email from TNS telling me that I have been sacked. This is due to my account being inactive for such a long time. I am honestly not bothered. Their pay is rediculously low for the amount of work you have to do.

I agree with you - the pay is very low and it's not worth doing for the amount of work involved. I used to do a lot of jobs for them when I started MS few years ago - but I only do the fast supermarkets nowadays lol

Thanks for that TG. It turns out I was registered. TNS used it not that long ago for one client, and I had registered on the site purely for that campaign (used cars). Does anyone know if TNS has used the SASSIE system for anything else?

There were some of their "usual" supermarket jobs on it a week or so ago .. not the normal scenario though, think they were mobile phone enquiries.

Not absolutely sure but I think it is worth checking both. A bit daft IMHO to be operationg 2 different systems at the same time for results.

Me too. I've applied for over 350 since last August and been allocated ... none. Sod's law, though, I was in one town this morning and got a phone call from them, asking me to do an urgent job today, about 20 miles in t'other direction! I can't get there until later in the week so lost out :mad:

I registered on the Sassie site a while back but had forgotten all about it, thanks for the link TG, I have added it to my favourites now :T

It's asking me to complete my extended profile... now I'm being really dim, but do they want us to answer yes or no?! 'Cos I do in a fashion, but I'm not actually employed by them? I've put yes, but not sure now!!

Has anyone managed to get past the first question on their basic test? Read it and see :rotfl:
