The forms wind me up when they say, "what was the staff name on the badge", so you type "Fred" and it doesn't meet the minimum 200 characters so you have to fill up the box in order to submit!

i just take the !!!! and answer 'fred' and just copy and paste it over and over again until it is enough! lol never been queried!

That is soooo funny. :rotfl:Did you do the job long?!

about 6 months! only got minimum wage but could do as much overtime as i wanted so i managed to pay off lots of debt! was so annoying! i could normally find their order just from an email address so would normally just sort it out. my colleagues would refuse and make them reply with the proper info but it was more effort to that!

I am livid..they (RE) have refused to pay me on a sports job as I only interacted with a staff member for 15 secs..err yes thats cos they gave me a 2 word answer and walked off!

Has anyone had any luck persuing something like this? It's their word against mine and they reckon I didn't follow the brief. That is the very last time I do them a favour!:mad:

Did you try to build up a rapport with them at all?

Send them a paper invoice by Recorded delivery, marked "payment due by XX/XX/10" (would recommend 14 calendar days) if they still don't pay, send them a "letter before action" informing them that you will pursue them through the Small Claims Court if they don't pay by xx/xx/10 (a further 7 or 14 days, your choice but would advise 14).

If they still don't pay, sue them. seriously, I'd love to do it - it'd give them a kick up the ar5e.

In all honesty, the paper invoice will almost certainly do the job methinks.

I've just had an email returned with a failure to deliver notice. It's one of eDigital's clients, but the strange thing was it was on a web form, not from an email address.

I've filled in the RE survey. That's the end of my "career" with them methinks.

I've had a reminder cos I'VE not filled mines in yet, now is that taking the proverbial or wot !
I;ve had a look @ it & they'd have to pay me to fill it in for them, why do they need us to tell them how crap they are ???????????? & what a crap company they are running & before anyone else says it on here & runs me down over voicing my opinion:rotfl: (as I'm sure a few will do ) I DONT NEED TO WORK FOR THEM, but as they have sent the email to all of their 450,000 shoppers
then most of us will have been sent it.:eek::eek::eek::eek:

I feel a right prat at the moment - I've got a photo shop booked for Thursday and, although I know which town it is, I've forgotten which Company I was doing it for! Can anyone please tell me which Company had these - I've looked at the one I thought it was but its not there and I can't get at the paperwork until I find out who it was for. Daft or what?

A bit :rotfl:. Can't you just log on to all the agencies that you are registered with and see which ones you have assignments with? The only one that I can think it might be is ESA
