I searched up to 50miles & only saw 5 jobs and I live within 50miles of Manchester, Liverpool, Bolton, Wigan & saw nothing so perhaps the waves for this area haven't gone out yet. I'd be surprised if there were no death shops in this area!

thanks Ill keep popping back and checking then as I dont want to miss out. Have a DIY visit to do for them tomorrow - put it back a day as resting at home to get rid of this bug. Taken son to station, walked dog and sorted out some things to bake in a bit so just got a few surveys to get on with now

For anyone who has registered with JKS in last few months an email was sent out today about some calls. I found the email in my spam so if like me you are newly registered with them might be worth checking. I think the calls are nationwide and not localised.

I didn't get an email and there is nothing on their job board. I have never seen anything with this company.

Hey all, how we all doing? I can't believe how quickly the jobs go!!! I can only find one or two a week and see from posts here that people have 5-7 a day!!! lolz

Had accepted and approved a job on ESA but now when I go in it's been whipped out of my inbox... Is this normal? x

Just checked this and its 97 questions! and the fee is a third of what the other fee was for 27 questions!
Think I'll give this one a miss!

I dont even know how to check their board as there are not any links I can see from the website. This is the first I have ever heard from them. It is possible the calls are localised after all. Ill let you know if I hear back and actually get allocated anything.

esa is working again now but theres only one job in my area about 50 miles from me were all of the new jobs self assign? I am not able to self assign and I have queried it but they have not changed it so I hope not or else this is why I have missed out. I usually have a tea one showing up as its a couple of minutes from my house. hoping that they just haven't done my local ones yet!

as for people nearby I think DebtHater covers similar area to me as he's in Canterbury, Kent and Im just 15 miles away. I think he must get all the ones in my actual town as I never get any close to home (out of my 40 visit style jobs this month under 10% are in my town).

As for GFK the bank job was allocated to me by accident it seems and they emailed me last night to tell me (did not get that email). Seems like it was a "he" who was covering my local bank so until I hear otherwise I am blaming the above culprit :P

Would be nice if others were also in my area. TG covers Bluewater which I cover about once every 6 weeks at the weekend so not much crossover with her and that's the only ones I know of. Hope TG got the ice cream alert for that area this morning that I posted as too far for me to drive just for that.

I did see it, thank you, but I did it a month or 2 ago so can't do it again. Did apply for the Lakeside one but someone beat me to it.

TG xx

trick is to sign up to 10+ MS co's and ideally have push email for alerts and emails from co's

esa job should stay in your inbox until you do it if its not there i would give them a call

Yeh I did see that, but it's hard to know as you can't see the questions. Based on the last lot I thought I would give it ago. At least I don't have to leave the house!

Thanks for your messages about Centre Parcs, I contacted RE and was told to check the job board! No free dinners for me! I did see a couple of burgers which are on the way to Centre Parcs but I wasn't quick enough.

Many thanks earlier for pointing me in the direction of the 1st few pages of the thread.
I've applied to 2 mystery shopping places this afternoon and been accepted
Had a look at the FAQ in the 1st few pages of this thread but still have some questions. Also, been reading the 'training' on the companies websites.
If you do an assignment in eg a fast food burger places then doesn't it look a bit obvious to ask for a receipt? Those places never give receipts so in asking for one doesn't it highlight your probably mystery shopping or do those assignments generally not require receipts?
Many thanks
