on an unrelated topic, if anyone has any nescafe collections coffee, it has all been recalled due to possible glass contamination. you need to email them the details or phone them and they send you a refund by cheque. it only cost me about £3 to buy it and mine was half empty. got a cheque today for £5!

In a similar vein to the other question about email jobs, I've just sent an email on a job for GfK (not sure if this is the same job or not) and have actually already received a reply!!!

Now, in the briefing notes it says to 'wait the requisite amount of time before completing the rest of the questionnaire - i.e. when you receive a full response or 10 working days - whichever comes first'.

So I went back into my results to enter the rest of the results and there it says, in no uncertain terms, that you must wait 10 days or you won't get paid!

I'm confused. :-(

ETA: Oh, hang on. Further down, the questionnaire does ask if you received any further emails within 10 working days, so I guess you do have to wait!

Sounds the same as mine, but it just says wait the 10 days, not when you receive a full response or 10 working days. I've had my reply too, but I'm just hanging onto it.

Had a pretty busy MSing day today. Five assignments! I've blimming knackered. One of them was the big bank GR one mentioned earlier. I do indeed have to go back for a follow up visit, but given the fee, I really dont mind.

So all in all, my five assignments netted me a triple figure sum today (am I allowed to say that???!). Yey!

Hi Clippy girl,
Did notice that for a few that were due yesterday & today, they have reduced it by £1.00.
Should be increasing it for last minute jobs that people have dropped or cancelled.:mad:
Still not a problem as there's about 450,000 other RE SHOPPERS OUT THERE APART FROM YOU & I :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Yes most of mine have. Considerably more difficult in the covert shops. The smelly stuff is right next to the checkout and I'm sure the guy had already clocked me when I went round and did my audit.

Think I may have to start signing into the stores which I don't normally do. Especially if you stand with the freezers open!

I've got myself a nice audit/shop fitting assignment this weekend. I had to go buy a tape measure! Going to make use of my partners iPad though and take it with me and input the results straight into the excel spreadsheet. Should save time

I had the same problem but in the cover sheet it says wait 10 days or when you get full response whichever is sooner. In the form it keep saying it has not been 10 days, they refuse to accept it, I override it and wrote that it states in the cover sheet either wait or when you get full response. I hope it is ok!:(
