i have always received it on 20th or 22nd except last month

I think about 3 or 4 months ago, they suddenly changed pay dates so it's around 26th now IIRC.

You could be right. I obviously cannot name the company but I know for a FACT one of the companies had loads of jobs hanging about no one wanted to do. Company sent their own staff to the area, flooded it and got them all done in 1 day. I suspect it was to avoid any shoppers trying to get a fee increase plsu the jobs were not fun jobs to do.

Maybe some others might be able to confirm this.

It does happen. I know someone who used to work for a mystery shopping company and she was asked to do jobs that no one wanted to do.

Wow, I can't believe RE have increased their fee for the last remaining sandwich jobs that need doing! I snapped one of them up!

Well HP,
I agree with you on this one, a particular company had loads & loads of jobs, kept looking @ them daily, & thought 'will I won't I' did a mental calculation & thought overall I could do with the money:(, went to select The 1st one & lo & behold they disappeared in front of my eyes.
Did a double take,as you do put my specs on & the jobs had GONE .:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
Got on the phone immediately to be told by some snotty Moo 'The jobs have been available for xyz amount of weeks, Boss said they must be done in the next 24-48 hrs, no extra cash in increased fees to be given to shoppers:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:,so get it organised by yourselves & get them done
Bet once they started to do them, they got a wee flavour for the 'Perks' & I reckon this goes on all the time & some of us get only the 'DREGS':(:(

Bet more people have this tale to tell, it'd surprise you the 'goings on' of some of these companies.

I asked yesterday when they phoned me to do a coffee job. He said payment will be made round about the 27th but to allow an extra couple of days if it falls on or near a weekend.

But I have been paid by Grass Roots today

I have been paid.....but I can't work out who it is :think:

At the moment it just says bank credit, but it's for a very round number. It could be for audits, but it's more than I was expecting.

Hmmmm.
