I have the same problem Dotty, but as yet haven't got round to asking TNS as there doesn't appear to be a contact us bit on the sassis system.... do you want to email them via the other or shall I? I don't mind, unless someone already has the answer????

I think the fact that they don't have a drop down is because they don't have any visits available. I've not actually asked them but I think that's what it means.

I think this is the case with all other SASSIE's. I've seen that with TERN too. When they have no visits, they don't have a drop down box.

Just going to add to the can of worms! I just released a couple of old buildings in yorkshire, my car died! Hope someone enjoys them. (GFK)

I cant see any jobs on TNS sassie. The box where I choose which country etc is very small, and has no drop down options. Has anyone else had this?

Also, I dont really do much with TNS, or havent in the past anyway, but my last two (completed) jobs are still showing in my visits with the option to book/cancel next to them. Is this a problem, or are they just pending payment?

Any advice would be really helpful before I make a complete prat of myself by asking the company....:D

Plenty of jobs on the old TNS system though!

Go girl. I got paid just over half a ton by GR back then. I used to get calls off them saying we have one in Leeds, one in Dewsbury, one in Huddersfield, if you do them all, we will give you an extra tenner. I was like give me all of them. LOL.

Those were the days. My first ever assignment was one of those GR bank jobs and I recall thinking wow this mystery shopping is a well paid job to get into. How wrong was I :rotfl:

I can remember the days (about 2 years ago) when GR paid proper money to go to a bank and open an account. That was well worth it. These days other agencies want you to do that for like a quarter of the fee. I don't think so!

GR actually did pay me a great fee recently for opening a bank account. It was funny tho as the manager was surprised when I was offered various extra facilities by the computer and said that hardly ever happens now so he was all nice to me.

I don't think i'm totally against a small 2 min clip.

Something i would give a go if it had a decent fee. but for that! Hell no!"

And rule yourself out of EVER being able to MS that branch again (IMO they'd save it so that they can identify you "next time"), and possibly other branches in the area (IMO they'd share it with their buddies at other branches)?

Not for me, for any fee.

I did one of these... The computer said no you can't have one and the manager immediately changed from bending over backwards to just about telling me to **** off :eek:

They could at least have been nice about it - am sure he regretted it when he got the report :rotfl:

Hello

Thanks for all the great help on this thread. I wonder if any of you have experienced this before? I am trying to book a premium assignment on GYP but when I look in Job Search it's greyed out and I can't select a date? Am I missing something?

Thanks
