    Totally agree MSN. 6 months is a long time. I believe that although you can only SA 5 (when it's working that is :mad:) however, I'm sure you can still get more if esa allocate them. Otherwise they wouldn't get them all covered. I did 40 last month.

    I'm going to go and make a start on my telecoms jobs for Helion now :)

    I did about that last month too :D love the egg shops hehe.

    Nice to see we're both busy, I'm just off to do some of my telecoms aswell, and a phone shop for another company and a couple of clothes shops. Then some crisps if its not too manic in tesco! Happy shopping everyone!
  • Just back from my two jobs which I had today. A pet visit and a home store. Now getting ready to go off to the local speedway match. Reports can wait till I get home!
  • OOh didnt know that! So the fee is stated in Euros so how much will I know I will get?

    In the FAQs there is a question "Do I get paid in Euros or my own currency?" where the answer says:
    "We are based in Belgium so all payments will leave us in Euros. This will then be exchanged by your bank.
    Please always check before you do an assignment with your bank if they charge for this.
    In the UK we will pay directly in pounds from September 2010."


    I haven't quite kept up with the discussion, but I assume that means that until the autumn payments will be in Euros.

    Ooh thats changed then. When I looked a few weeks ago (think it was on the last thread not this one) It didn't have September on it. If i'd have known I wouldn't have accepted those 2 telephone calls - My bank charge and i've now spent time doing the calls and reports (and believe me, one of them was a neverending report) and now my banks going to swallow up the whole payment and i'll get zilch. :mad:

    For everyone's information:

    The Nationwide Cash-builder account does not charge to have foreign currency paid by BACS or CHAPS. I've had Dollars and Euros paid in numerous times and the exchange rate always works out what has been credited :)

    I've done 2 - the one last week wasn't graded, the second one (the one that I told you about) was only submitted yesterday and that one was, so it looks like they're introducing it.

    It's just different areas being marked and you get a % figure. hang on, let me see if I can dig it out of my deleted items...


    Squidge you have a PM. Don't know what they're marked out of though, or how the numbers relate to the % very confused.
