    Saw that too eyes lit up!! I am doing one and I will begrudge sending shoes back :(

    Nearest one to me is a good hours drive away... If I could keep the shoes I'd do it but no chance if I can't! :D
  • You know the supermarket jobs for TNS.

    Do you have to buy an item from each department that you have to visit? No, buy what you like as if you were normally shopping.

    Or is it that you have to ask questions to the staff members but don't have to buy?
    Yes - print the shopping list off and this will give you a good idea of what questions to ask... i.e. if it says "toaster" ask someone in the electrical dept where the toasters are...

    and where do you find which ones you need to visit as I have one more department on the shopping list than I do on the first page?
    I generally do whats on the shopping list. To be honest they're confusing as hell I'm sure they would be better served following the GR supermarket model!

    Can get on it, but nearly threw my laptop against the wall trying to complete a questionnaire last night. Took nearly 2 hrs. :mad:
    I was typing and the text eventually appeared two minutes later. To make it worse, the short (5 min) visit was 'eventful' so needed to write loads. Seriously thinking of forgetting about RE altogether.
    Anyone else have this problem? Maybe it's a browser thing? Using explorer btw - used to be ok until recently.

    I have had the same problem with the last few reports I have tried to do for re, took me over an hour to do a very short report one night:eek: I'm just pleased I haven't had any of the 'usual' very long comment reports to do for re for a while!

    Grrr while we're on the subject annoying reports.... I've just completed a travel survey for e-dig only one of the sections is still saying 'incomplete' and it wont let me send it. I've got information in all the boxes, i've even tried expanding on info incase theres a min word count. Any suggestions?

    See 3rd post of this thread - I have written a step by step guide to these visits.

    Send an error report on that page, then send a message via the site explaining that it wouldnt let you submit. They will submit it foryou.

    Thanks, i'd sent a message, but wasn't sure about the error report as that seemed to be about reporting an error on the site you are assessing. I'll do that now. Ta.

    Max's post just mentioned Bank Transfers but hopefully it will be in tomorrow. If not I'll email Max.

    Back at work and have no idea when I will have time to MS :eek: Constantly on the go from 6.30am until around 9pm! Going into town on Saturday so booked a couple of clothes shops to do while I'm there.
