    Just been assigned a visit for a company I haven't worked for before for friday :j That's the 3rd new company in as many weeks :D

    (I don't mean new company...I mean one I haven't worked for before...)

    It's great when you get a job from somewhere new, isn't it!! I've recently done my first 4 for ESA, and got another 2 tomorrow!!! :j:j

    Were the funerals self-allocate? Since they've done this self-allocation thingy I've been getting nothing :(

    I did an energy drink visit for them to a well known pub chain last week for a decent fee and a reimbursement which actually covered the cost of my lunch there.

    The report took about 15 minutes to do it was so straightforward.

    .

    Thats the jobs that vanished when I tried to apply for them. :(

    Been away for the weekend and it doesnt look as if I've missed much. Still not many jobs around.

    Thank you - all 4 recent jobs that I did for them have been paid already :T

    Hi me again :o

    Been keeping up abit

    I have a Pay Statement from ESA - 16 Jobs all on there even though 2 of them were closed down I still got paid the fee. The first page says they pay on the 9th of the month but TG I see you've been paid.

    What period did you do the work in?

    I've not got online banking to check.

    Thanks

    I had one that was closed too....and they are even giving me £1 reimbursement on top of the fee which is nice of them.
  • Thanks for the heads up on the ESA invoices, I am very pleased to report my 5 assigments from last Monday are on there:j. I thought they might have been a bit close to the cut off point, as they were my first jobs for said company I was a little nervous. (Got those 'first time in new job butterflies!':p)

    I stupidly did three RE jobs today:eek:. Did the first report and it kept coming up with errors, saying that I had not answered three questions....go back..the questions have disapeared completly:mad::mad:. Ended up having to phone RE up and they had to input the info. for me! When I said I still had two more reports to enter and I hoped this would not happen again the chap said don't worry we are open for another 25 minutes!!! I could not help myself and asked the poor chap if he had ever tried inputting a report, as 1 would take me much longer than 25 minutes, let alone two!! Get a feeling I might get sacked, I was so frustrated...I did say to him 'I know its not your fault but I don't get these problems with any other shopping companies'.:eek:

    Actually I think it would be a good idea if they did sack me...why oh why can I not just stop myself logging on and checking 'just in case?':(

    I think the invoice is created on the 22nd and the money actually hits the bank on the 9th.

    I'm dead chuffed cos I only started MS'ing last week I did 16 jobs for ESA and no queries!!

    I can see what people mean about RE - I had a query on a job. I said the drink didn't meet expectations because it was warm and not hot - I expect a hot drink to be hot not warm so that I rush it and end up feeling sick. I couldn't type in the reply box so sent an email, no response. Get another email from them asking me to complete box online - rang to say I couldn't and it had 'Just been fixed' (yea right!)

    Despite that I have 2 jobs this week for RE

    TPA, I'm always loggin in just to check :o Nightclub anyone? (do you think they'll let me take LO? :p)

  • I am currently on PAYG...shocking I know! I am looking to finally coming into present and getting a phone for MS that I can check the internet on during the day when I'm in my 'normal day job'and hopefully pick up more jobs.

    Need to be on the Orange network due to others having 'carp' reception in my area. I know i'm a tight cow but I'm looking to spend a MAXIMUM of £25 a month. i'm assuming if I keep my current PAYG phone I can claim the contract one against tax for MS purposes? Any ideas which phone would be best?

    Sorry for long post, it's been a frustrating day:mad:
