    Oooooh, exciting stuff today. Have finally done my first Egg Job!!! :D

    However, I may well have fluffed it up. Silly me spent all of 3p over the maximum spend. Tsk. :o
    From anyone's experience, is this likely to be a problem??

    Don't worry. All they are saying is they will only give you £xx. What you spend doesn't matter.
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    :D Fab.
    That must have been how I'd read it when I'd gone through the notes, but was just wondering as it said "required maximum spend" so thought they might have capped it for whatever reason.
    But sounds like it will be ok :D Wouldn't want to mess up the my first famous egg job! Particulary after standing in the p!ssing rain to get the 3 photos! And realising that 3 guys in a builders van were watching me crush up my bag of crisps, and then I realised they were in the queue when I did the complaint part, and I could hear them whispering to each other about it!!
    Whoopsy!! :D

    never had any problems at all

    No it won't be a problem, I have spent nearly £20 before and they just paid me back the reimbursement amount...
  • How long do amber normally take to go from 'completed' to 'received'? I'm new to them and I did 2 jobs a week ago, one went to received within a couple of days and 1 still says 'completed'?

    Folks, do you think we should be wary of working for Bare? I know peeps have not been paid for certain types of jobs but can anybody confirm any recent payments? I have a couple of jobs lined up and am wondering shall I shan't I!
    No Matter what you do there will be critics.

    It's a hard one. It might just be the test job and the one of mine that has an issue. Plus we don't know how many people are waiting payment, so it might just be a few people.

    Someone used the phrase "slate"; I don't want to get into just slagging them off if they pay me this month, as then I'm sorted and it's a storm in a teacup. However, I also wouldn't want to be doing lots of jobs for them if there is a bigger issue. I've told them that their public image is deteriorating.

    If people who don't want to post, PM me, then it might be easier to see numbers??
  • ok, it's early and i totally admit i have not had enough caffine but................... if i'm doing a gfk phone job, and it says 'stock enquiery' where the flipping heck do i find what to say?

    The others are quite self explanatory, but i don't quite get this one if somebody could help please.

  • Have you ever had a MS that the sales person has been so good that you actually wanted to keep the goods? I had one yesterday where the assistant spent over an hour with me. It was like having my own personnal trainer :) I came out of the store conviced that I was going to keep the trainers (nearly £100 :eek:) However the rain came on and it was absolutely freezing so sanity ruled and I sent them back :D
