I hope the shoppers hold up the three fries and eat them one at a time, just for CCTV purposes :rotfl:

That is absolutely brilliant. I'm going to do it. I've got a convertible so i'm going for a full roof down 1 chip at a time floor show

I'm just curious though, which one of you tried to complete a drive thru on a moped? Did they not like that they couldn't identify you with a helmet on?! And of course this now rules out the emergancy shopping trolley for when the car breaks down too.

i have had my payslip but no money in the bank yet - on my job page it says paid 25th june

hopefully will be in tomorrow

Have you double checked your bank details on your profile? There is a note on there that if you change the account details on the Sassie you must also inform them directly.

I think I would give them a call as they are normally good payers. I had a delay once on a visit I did where the shop was closed. When I queried delay in payment I got a big apology and enhanced payment.

Hi, This info is spot on but I need some advice. I am literally doing my first tax return and have been mystery shopping for about a year now. Registered as self employed but can anyone explain what I put in the Business details part of the return. Do I use my home as the place of business? I am sure this is easy but I just need pointing in the right direction.

I've never invoiced React, I've always been paid automatically. Last month I received a remittance advice on 28th which was dated the 22nd. Money went into my account on the 25th.

I'd second Tudorc1's advice.

What about when its a breakfast job? Do you have to eat the Hash brown? The server will think "Greedy pig cant wait!!!"

On another note glad to see the old double posting glitch is still here. GRR. Very annoying. I've also noticed that when I try to scroll down the page it keeps jumping back up again. Anyone else getting this?

Yes, I'm getting that.

Just FYI, the burger job has changed a couple of points...

Once the food has been presented, double check the correct order is contained in the bag and assess at least
three fries before driving away from the window to ensure you are assessing their quality as you receive them.

And my personal favourite...

All Drive Thru evaluations must be completed using a car. It is not acceptable for mopeds or motorbikes to be used for DT assignments.

OMG..whatever next? Need to be an octopus already, take the food, click the timer, see if they smile and "Enjoy your meal?" Now open the bag, check contents and eat 3 fries! What happens if you eat one more? Will the alarms sound and the Fries Police nab ya? Just one more thing to do on the list that lets them know who the mysery shoppers are:p

Afternoon all. Just back from MS'ing. Had 6 shops all in one city which was quite impressive. Normally I do a circuit of 1 or 2 towns and rack up some mileage so today was quite nice. Had a fun moment doing the clothes shop for RE as I got to the till and the item I wanted was only half of the reimbursement, despite the price tag saying otherwise! I thought sod that, got to find another item to make up the reimbursement. RE pay a pittance as it is! Decided on the same item in another colour.
Just need to motivate myself to type up my reports now. Gonna have fun writing up one as when I enquired about a kitchen appliance, I was told to visit another electrical store!!!!

Hi
I just use my own name and address for the business details, and have never had any problem.
