    I so sorry for the car incident, it makes my blood boil nothing but scum.

    Many many sorries to you.

    Can anybody advise whether it is work applying for the telephone call to buy an expensive bag on React? I notice that the fee covers everything and not being a particularly big fee it won't cover the phone call and return postage of item. I know that you can return items under distance selling regulations however if you change your mind you pay the postage. I also read on the website that sometimes refunds can take up to 90 days so that means a lot of money out of my account.

    However I want to get a few jobs with React and wonder if it is worth swallowing the loss? Any advice appreciated.

    Ina word "no", for all the reasons you mentioned above. I find this assignment quite baffling and cannot see a plus side anywhere.

    Missaraleigh, I'm so sorry for your ordeal. These scumbags should be put into some sort of military school for a few years to be broken down and have their ar*** kicked on a regular basis; maybe then they will come out as desent human beings.

    Rant over.

    Hello

    I have a job with React on Sunday, does anyone know if they accept receipt uploads in the form of a digital photo or does it have to be scanned?
    I cant scan or use the phone- I only take photos with a camera -never had one single query!

    I've always scanned all of my receipts for all jobs I've done, and the only company that has ever asked for a clearer copy is React, who were happy with the photo I then sent them instead!

    VAS or Sassie??

    I've just tried both, and both are fine for me.

  • Glad to hear you are all ok. The same thing happened to my friend about 10 years ago and it was a very scary ordeal.

    On another topic, and I apologise in advance as I know it has been said a million times before but does anyone have a decent spreadsheet they use for calculating tax as i've just managed to screw up all the formulas in mine and excel is far from being my strong point.

    If anyone has one could they PM me and I will give you my email address.

    Thanks again.

    Go you! I once did 3 in the same super duper market. 1 for RE. 2 for TNS. Had 1 from Bare to do too, but pulled out of that 1.

    OK. So I did a visit for Amber Arch. Did the report. 2 days later it said Fee: £10 (I've made that figure up). Expenses: £50. Special Expenses: £8. That was all fine. I have just logged on now and it has changed to Fee: £10. Expenses: £0. Special Expenses: £0. Is this normal for them? I hope to get the expenses and the special expenses else I will be knocking on their door!!

    PS. If anyone has picked one of the shopping malls for Amber Arch, please can you send me a pm. I have a question about it. Cheers.
