Hi, I have a question about the TNS airport visits. There is one at the airport I am flying from on the day I am flying but I am unsure as to what happens about the questionnaire. If it has to be completed within a certain time how can you do that if you are going away? Even if I took my laptop with me what about sending a copy of the receipt?

You can take a photo of the receipt, and email it to them.

I am going to centre parcs soon, are the restaurants ever shopped? Some free food while I am away would be good

Arrrggghhhh, so fed up with RE tonight, they have queried every report I did over the weekend, my fingers can't cope with all the typing for so little cash!

Sorry can not help re the centre parc restaurants, never seen any listed anyhow..

However just wanted to say I feel your pain with RE - I had two queries when I had answered the question at least once in the report so as I keep word copies of all the comments I just cut and paste my original replies in again and in both cases not had any more queries on them (however it might explain why i am not seeing that many jobs on RE at the moment, suspect I am back to beginner status again for being cheeky!)

Same here, just written an essay regarding a bookies...

Does anyone know if trebles are acceptable for the RE bookies? I put one of these on because I thought it was a single outcome i.e. win or lose RE are saying it had to be a single match with a single outcome. I'm rubbish at betting anyway, knew I'd get something wrong :rotfl:

Only did this particular branch because I was next to it anyway, definitely not worth doing a 70 mile round trip to revisit for their fee!

when it comes to the reveals ive not done any where i have had to yet at the end of the visit (ie the electricals). but i have done audits at the cinema (not as if they know who I am as the manager refuses to ever see me or the letter) and i also do ms for a different company at the same cinema. ive also done jewel audits with a letter and ms the cafe in same store on the same day.

as for the crisps got reinstated by company and was my worst experience last week. had a visit 50 mile round trip from home to cover one for them (my trial now I am reinstated) and there were about 9 members of staff standing around next to me. then not having done these before (and did not have the letter - it was covert) I had to bend down to bottom shelves to pull out the crisps as could not see what they are. about 30 plus like it.

I am now as mobile as I can be (back surgery in past) but I cannot go down on my knees without excessive pain and needing something to hold onto to pull myself back up. anyhow realised these jobs are not for me then I ended up escorted off premises by staff so horrid visit really embarrassing... thank god i dont know anyone in that town! lol

I emailed company and got my local one cancelled as I am not prepared to hurt my leg and back for the fee and I do not want to be escorted out of my local one as I shop there each week. I was not impressed with the response from said company as I was told there is not bending down or stretching to get the crisps as you can just tilt camera (i.e. they think I am lying or something... as if I would make up this as I can't bend so well nowadays as I don't even like people knowing anything about it... don't mind in here as you lot don't know me. when I was struggling to learn to walk/stand properly again id see people staring at me and stuff so it made me really self conscious).

not expecting to be given any other sort of work from them now as I guess that means I am un-reinstated again. am disappointed as I have liked the other jobs I have done previously and would hate to think I get "sacked" becuase my mobility means I am unable to do one sort of job. its a year since I started ms-ing this week and first time I have had to say to a company I cannot do a particular job again due to my leg so I feel really bad about it and been feeling a bit down ever since.

off to bed now as feeling poorly. had tons of work last week and have a few bits this week. forced myself into town yesterday to do two coffees and the drinks and food have made my belly worse so not such a good idea in hindsight! lol hopefully some sleep and a DIY and bank job tomorrow will make me feel better (I have another 6 coffees to go but I am going to have to push them back as cant face any more until my stomach is better! lol)

Racking my brains and am stumped !! Anyone who can put me out of my misery please do!! :beer: Ive got all the other 11

lol I am just generally stumped over them - it is like a facebook game - you have to collect all the clients before you can progress to the next stage. Only problem is they are very well hidden - I see from the alerts they have got supermarkets and catalogues but I have no idea how to add them. Can anyone help - I have 6 at the moment - only another 5 to go :rotfl::rotfl:

Hi,

I am desperate for advice from people who works on different panels on GFK. Recently I have received an invitation to join up to another panel run by GFK who wants me to come out of my current panel which mostly covers Banks. This new panel is to do with transport (ppl on it will understand) and it is paper base instead of web.
I have few family commitment which I need to be flexible around them and wondering how flexible is this panel rescheduling, what kinds of work available and is it really worth the hazel.
Please PM me if you have any information.
Highly appreciates your help.
Many thanks.
