    Most MS jobs will pay about £XX (either fee or a smaller fee+ small reimbursement and something free such as lunch or whatever)

    You'd expect to get about £XXX a week doing it reasonably relaxed and more if you really commit. It's flexible and good fun so I'd say go for it!

    I know you're trying to help someone but remember that we're not to discuss fees. Best to remove amounts.

    inspirespirit,
    speak to jobcentre about your benefits. See how much you can earn before they start to reduce your benefit and when they do it. I have spoken to an advisor before and found what they said quite interesting. I'm not going to quote them in case I've misunderstood some of what I was told but I would certainly suggest getting 100% facts from them. It could work for you. i.e. your benefits get reduced according to your net, taxable income, not your gross income before tax.

    I do MSing as a part time job. It lets me have some say in what, where and when I work. This might suit you. I would even suggest signing for a few of the companies on page one. You don't have to do any jobs. Just have a look to see whats on offer, what the brief involves and for how much.

    Have pm'ed you as well.

    Hi everyone - hows it all going? The weather is fab so I will assume that most of you are outside in the sun! However I'm stuck inside as I have to express a job...which got me thinking - I'm due to be paid by Gyp for the first time in the next few days - is there anyway to know whether they will refuse to pay any assignments that I have done?

    I have not had anything through email and so assumed it would all be ok ... but not so sure now...

    Let me know and enjoy the weather!!!

    Check your "my assignments" page, if any of them are "cancelled/rejected" that you were expected to be paid for then you probably won't be paid for them.

    I've always put #DT order no in first box, and #POS/EJ in second box. Never had any comeback.

    I think this query came up a few boards ago when I was starting out.

    Hi, from what I've gathered, no-one gets a KS# here. I don't know if it's a US thing? When I first started, someone said they just put a note in the comments (at the end, I think?) that they couldn't find a KS#, so that's what I've done on the two jobs I've done and I haven't heard back from Gap so I assume that's okay.

    I've been Money Tipped!
    There are a couple of jobs I am interested in for RE but they state they must be completed by 22nd May!!! I cannot seem to change the date so what can I do?
