    I did it, just pretended i was on hold to my bank and then had a little chat about phones with them at the end. In one i didn't have any of the phones so it was really quick but in the other it was a bit longer, i would think you be unlucky to have to do more than three phones in the shop.

    Its fun and if they spot you you can just deny it and they will look silly for accusing you. have fun.

    hmmmmmmmm food for thought!

  • No, I'm staying calm.

    On another note, 37 out of the 39 egg jobs have been allocated to someone other than me :mad::mad: just 2 left , waiting for them to vanish too.

    I'll give ESA one more chance then email them and tell them to stick it! :rotfl:
    I applied for 17 eggs and got 5 which are all thankfully in a 3 mile radius. Quite pleased with that result. Couldn't cope with 17 cartons of half a dozen eggs in the fridge.

    You should've done it long ago. You're far more patient than I!
  • I never post on sites but this tread got me going... Bare is notorious with breaching privacy rules... does anyone remember the beyond hello saga last year ?? Where they send of shopper confidential information to another shopper company called "beyond Hello " or so .. I suddenly got an email where they said we have got your details from Bare and are you interested in joining our company. And I signed their privacy stament and they promised never to sel my details without my permission....So for me it looks like Bare wants to divert the fact that there shopper information is floating around, if you see how many people come and go no wonder.....

    Hi guys

    I need some ugent help here! I have done 6 x crisp photos today and took nearly 150 pics. I have just connected the phone to the computer to transfer them and it has only transferred just over 50 and it says the synchronisation is complete! They are all clearly on my phone but I hust don't know why they wont transfer. I have a Nokia and they go onto Nokia Ovi and also straight into my photos on the computer.

    Its also just random ones so I cant even send one stores photos in! Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can transfer these remaining pics on my phone? I am nearly in tears here as I have had such a busy stressfulk day and only agreed to do all these extra stores to help them out and they are nowhere near where I live so I can't go back and re do them in time. Help!!!

    Two things to try:


    1.
    a) Plug phone into computer.
    b) on phone screen, select pc suite when it pops up asking you
    c) on pc go into "my computer"
    d) select Nokia Nxx (where Nxx is the model of your phone).
    e) Then choose either Mass Memory, Phone Memory, or Memory card (you may have all three of these options or maybe just one!).
    f) look for photos.

    If that doesn't work:

    2.
    a) Plug phone into computer.
    b) on phone screen, select mass storage when it pops up asking you
    c) on pc go into "my computer"
    d) Look for something that wasn't there before, perhaps "Removable Drive"
    e) double click on it
    f) look for photos.

    Lemme know how you go on.
  • A quickie from a newbie please. I am tempted to take a petrol job where you have to visit 2 stations but am unsure whether I would be reimbursed for the cost of the petrol plus a fee or if the fee is supposed to cover that.

    Would appreciate it if someone knows the answer - thanks!

    It includes it. the stated amount is the TOTAL amount that they pay you for the job.

    The reimbursement is included in the fee.

    Yep. Fee covers petrol plus shop purchase in main and small purchase in other. Notes are quite clear when you accept the job. My advice is to go for it for once at least and don't do any more if you don't like it.
    Couldn't think of anything witty to say so just keeping the space until I can :(
