    Can someone clarify please.

    "You will have 3 day(s), from the day you book the visit, to carry out the visit"

    Want to go on Wednesday - Can I book it out on Sunday or Monday?

    Thanks in advance.

    Monday- that will give you Monday Tuesday & Wednesday

    Edited to add : or book it now and email the contact to ask if you can carry out the visit on Wednesday. That way you won't risk losing the job.

    I've just picked up a bowling visit (presumably a cancellation) on RE. Is anyone else doing one of these? It says in the notes '
    You are a customer looking to purchase 1 game of bowling with a friend/family
    member/partner/child.'

    Do you think this means that I can ONLY take one other person or would I be able to take more than one? Not sure whether to get my husband to go in separately and pay for himself and one child so I can just pay for myself and one child. Then we can all go. Just wondering what other people thought.

    Thanks for you advise. I've taken it and it states Wednesday as due date. I have also sent email so may get clarification for non Sunday applications.

    Can't help I'm afraid as I haven't done these assignments.
    Sure someone will be along soon.

    Always think having one game screams Mystery Shopper!
    Who on earth goes and plays one game?

    I did one of these a few months ago and I visited with my 2 children but I said that just me and my son were playing ( just incase RE queried it and said I took more people than I should have ). I then just let the kids bowl.

    Hope yours goes better than mine did. Had to wait ages and 1 member of staff swore behind the till during a conversation with the manager !!!!

    I presume RE would just reimburse you for 1 game and 2 people playing.

    Thanks, I must have missed reading that bit. I'll email them now :)

    I have emailed them 3 times last week to get the final survey so payment can be activated ( as per their email ) and still waiting for the final survey to be allocated to my account. Hope they do it soon intime for the next payment run.
