What's up with RE? Not seen any new visits on there for almost a week!

Haven't seen much for about a week too. Seems quiet at the moment, just when I have the time to do more visits.

Not far from you but have to be honest its not me with ALL the restaurants :rotfl:Hubby works away so I pick them up if he is home but the italian bros was me You must be the one who gets every ESA job though I cant get a single job with them - think next time I apply for one I am going to offer bribery in my submission see if that makes a difference :eek:

Nah, not me with the ESA jobs either!! Did a fair few egg shops a few months back, but none really local! Think the only thing I've done for them over the last few months has been a charity shop... I'm on SA but someone else either gets there before me or the jobs are to be done Mon-Wed (when I can't travel 'cause I work 9-5!).

Think competition must be stiff for the restaurants LOL (I did manage to get a pizza buffet near you the other day though ).

it does seem strange the GFK thing.

I have 4 emails (to different organisations) but within 7 days of each other. I'm going to be miffed if they take the results then not pay.

I have two non-customer emails booked for Monday. but it says:

You are only allowed to accept 1 call or email (UBM12188 and
UBM12189) for each scenario per company e.g. only one A**x
Scenario 1
• You may only complete ONE customer and ONE non-customer
call or email to any organisation during any given week.
Should you allocate or complete more, you will not be paid for
these
• If you accept more than you are allowed they will be
deallocated and you will not be paid for them.

So, from the notes i assume i have overbooked? but they have not been de-allocated.

Yeah See ive done a few of these and I took it to be 1 email and one phone call PER week for ANY company.. but with in that only one can be customer one can be non customer.

Funny enough when i first did these i never got them deallocated. I wish GFK would ONLY show jobs that you can do.... annoys me when i see all these jobs and half of them im not able to do because of one reason or another.

I also thought that you could do 1 customer and 1 non customer PER organisation. but a guy at GFK told me I could only do 1 of each per week in total so I have not dared do any more as I dont want to do the work and not get paid.

Not sure how long it takes to see released jobs on re? I had just accepted a web job but have now released it (can't find what I usually buy in store).

Well, I shall continue with mine (unless they disappear) and we'll see if I get paid! At least it's not exactly much loss if I don't.
