    Today was not the day to be in supermarkets looking furtive and trying to take covert pictures less than a mile from last night's bomb blast so that job is put off til later in the week!

    Did one crisp job and a curvy store, sat by the lough for a while to let the sea air blow the hangover away and then had a little snooze :D

    Busy day tomorrow planned in the city centre including a first job for a new company :T will prep for that when DH is out hitting things tonight.

    Hello
    If anyone out there has done a Helion assignment, could they please PM me? Just have a quick question. Many thanks.

    I've sent you a pm.
  • I think the ABAI one is in Ireland if you look through the clients on the link on the first page.

    [FONT=&quot]Hi,[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]Thank you for your replies lily the pink and lovetowinacar (so would I!). I have signed up with ABAi as well but they never have anything in my area, unless I’ve not clicked something which I should have done! (Or vice versa). I do see that there are a lot of negative feedback relating to gyp – I think I’ll just test it for now and see how I go.[/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot] [/FONT]
    [FONT=&quot]With regards to ABAi – I have added the ones suggested on the first page but am unsure of how to add any others – is it just a matter of calling up and asking? Is there a way to view all assignments in ABAi without the search? Thanks in advance for any replies and for your help [/FONT]J[FONT=&quot] x[/FONT]

    i like edigital and the fees are reasonable for the amount of work required for the jobs i have done, esp compared with say re. no travelling time and no time to actually do an assignment, its all just filling in the questionnaire. most of the ones i have done involve no expenses at all so is a bonus. re the ones where you have to buy stuff, sometimes you send it back to the company you ordered it from and obtain a refund and you are also paid for that. people have previously commented that you can sometimes return stuff to a branch if it is a highstreet shop or you can buy something like a tshirt which is only pennies to return. i have not done any that involved a purchase yet. hoping for a new load of invites soon.

    on that note, has anyone had their retail surveys approved yet? i've not and all all my others were done in a few hours :( hope they are done by 19th as i need them to raise an invoice!

    Mine are still waiting to be vetted and surveys I have done after them have been passed for payment.

    Edited : I have just checked and I have had 2 out of 9 approved over the weekend.

    I haven't had any retail surveys approved yet, but like jc2703 have had others I've done since them approved.

    Thank you to jc2703 for answering my query

    I saw 5 pages of them earlier, nationwide iirc. I believe they're invite only though.

    don't want to accept the job then have to release it :)

    yer theres quite a few timing points all one after the other. best to do split times like burger jobs as they ask how many seconds between this and this etc...
