    They don't need to up the fees as majority of jobs are being completed with the current fee. I avoid them simply due to the fee but thats my choice, if others are happy to work for it then so be it.

    I'm just happy to wait for the urgent, last minute "increased fee" e mail and then i consider :D

    The surest sign that there is intelligent life in the universe is that they haven't contacted us yet:D

  • Not sure if worth an alert but ESA have put a few freezer jobs back on. Guess they are the ones they are taking off shoppers who booked more than 6!!!

    You couldn't do all 6 though. As soon as you've accepted one the others will disappear.

    What's the bet it's between 3:15 and 3:45 - school pick-up!
  • Just had a very near miss – doing a phone shop at lunchtime in my local shopping centre and was just hiding the paperwork in the bottom my handbag ready for when I got out when I happened to catch a glimpse of the store address.. and it is not where I thought it was :eek:....

    That's a very near miss! I've had a few close calls like that myself. My main problem is building numbers. Is there some EU directive preventing modern stores from putting numbers up on the store-front :angry:.

    Spoke to a very bored-sounding ESA advisor regarding SA. All bar 2 of the applications disappeared overnight, not expecting to get any of them to be honest. The next time ESA ask me to do an urgent job they'll get a raspberry blown down their ear'ole. Me, childish?! :p

    My account with ESA has just been reactivated, but can anyone tell me why I have 2 Dublin jobs showing (I'm Bristol).

    Many thanks.

    They don't have postcodes in Dublin so everyone sees the ROI jobs.
    Here I go again on my own....
