Hi everyone,
I'm new to mystery shopping, and was accepted onto the gfk mystery shopping site.
I joined a job that was available. It is an email job to enquire about becoming a teacher.

I am educated upto degree level, so don't have to bend the truth too much.;):o
Anyway, even my standard of education can't help me pass the test, which i need to do to gain access to the coversheet.:o
Its sooo annoying, it won't even tell me which questions i've got wrong.

Could anyone help please???
Feel free to pm me, or reply on here. I will be back online later, and tomorrow.

I gave up and cancelled the job! Sorry, can't help

I have not done that test so can not help you but I know some of the others are really annoying and I tend to end up doing trial and error with the questions I "think" could be wrong till I get it to accept it!

I did that job - I cant remember the questions though so feel free to pm and I will tell you what I put!

The job itself (as is so often the case with GFK) was easier than the test :rotfl:

is it a flight one? it took me nearly two hours to do a flight one. i cancelled my others as there is no way i was doing two hours for that fee and even if i would, i did not have time to do it. they should have put a much higher fee for those, i happily do the retail, gas, broadband, music etc.. but dont think i would ever do travel again

They are doing my head in. Took 5 messages to reply about not being able to submit a survey (although sent three telling me to submit it). Sending surveys back saying contact via email, to which i have to reply - there is no email, then another saying ring, which i have told them doesn't have a phone number. All the while not answering any of my flipping messages


aaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggghhhh

Sorry, rant over.

Glad its not just me How long does a 'normal' edig survey take you ? Are the travel ones longer than 'normal' ?
Also has anyone done a music one recently or have they finished ?
Thank you

The single purchase music one I did was a doddle, took about 2 minutes. That was on 26th May though, and STILL not been vetted.

I do the same! I've done that test and it foxed me too on several counts. I think I really did guess several of them by trial and error!

The trick with these is to open two browser windows.

One is one the brief, the other is one the questionnaire.

As you answer the Q's look at the brief.

Mind you sometimes the two do not match up
So in that case, phone up GfK and query it.

As with Miss Qwerty the music one took a couple of minutes (mine haven't been vetted either), but these ones are taking about 10 times longer. I finally got one email reply today, so I can fill in the last bits of that tonight, but no replies to the others.
