I don't use The Office, but a link I've got bookmarked is http://www.invisionplus.net/forums/index.php?mforum=mshoppertheoffi

Having said which, just tried it, and that link doesn't seem to be working, so it's either changed, or the problems they were having over the weekend are still persisting!!

I think they are still having problems, I don't think it's specifically the office though. Invisionplus seems to be my issue. I get a nice security warning now!

I have steadfastly resisted getting a Sat Nav, but have second thoughts about it all the time. Mostly, I am worried that it will get me into a panic in the car becuase I have a dreadful sense of direction and also cannot tell right from left.

After many years of MSing, I have a vast range of town street maps, which I keep in the car, together with several folders of googlemap printouts. I now know all the towns within a 50 mile radius pretty well and seem to get by without clocking up too many unnecessary miles. I rarely end up having to go to places I haven't been to before, and I have all of my cross-country routes down to a T.

What does interest is me how good a Sat Nav is when there is an unexpected road closure: can you get it to give you the quickest/shortest alternative route without too much hassle? Can you, jediteacher, or anyone else, answer this?;)

I too cannot tell my left from my right but this doesn't seem to be a problem as I look at the picture on the SAT Nav and the pink line shows me which direction.

My SAT Nav does give me an alternative route when there is a road closure and it's not been too much hassle.

The only thing that annoys me is that it tries to take me along motorways when I know the route is shorter by A roads. However, it does not do this all the time and I really have come to rely on it especially when there is a road closure and I've no idea how to get round it!

Anyway, I best be off have 3 MS jobs to do and still need to put the postcodes into the SAT Nav! :rotfl:

That's who mine is from but I have no clue what its for!

Edited to add - ...and as its a single figure sum I've really no need to get excited about it!

I did two jobs for GfK before the 25th March and there is nothing on my Payment History with them. Is this normal?

Scratch that - it says the Payment History will be updated after payment so I'll check my bank today

Could it have been for a Mailing?

Hi guys

I'm really new to all this, I've joined the obvious shoppers but am having little luck with being assigned . Had one ESA so far, Helion I have signed up for about 21 of the phone ones but no joy and the 4 in my area I applied for and didn't get.

Any ideas for the 'best' or most frequent mystery shopper ones? I'm really eager to give it a go as I work my main job on flexi time so it's ideal, and I would LOVE to clear my debts below by The end of financial year 2010.... optimistic I know but that's the kind of person I am

Thanks guys
