I do think it takes a "certain kind of person" (interpret that how you will) to do the car jobs regularly, some love them, some hate them. Same with most jobs I guess. TNS supermarket jobs, some love them, i hate them (well, don't see them worthwhile but I'll not split hairs).

Same with all these jobs I guess - for me, it was the ultimate boredom. I love haggling down prices, got fantastic deals on all of them, but sitting gazing out of the window whilst they calculated a price for 40 minutes was awful. Had I been a genuine customer I'd have left after 30 minutes.

I'd given that garage my real phone number, so when they rang to ask what I'd decided to do I told them that I decided to not buy a car from them as if they could leave me sitting alone for 40 minutes when I'm asking to spend over £25k with them, I didn't rate their customer service enough to trust them with my purchase. That felt good!

I heart GFK phone shops, they always seem to be shut even when they should have been open for over 2 hours and I get paid for doing nothing. Woohoo!

Has everyones charmbracelet shop on BARE gone to 0.00 for the expenses? I hope they pay me. I ain't spending that sort of money for no reason.

PS. Thanks to whoever kept dumping the music shop in Leeds on RE. I nabbed it with triple the fee. Woohoo. Nice easy job.

I haven't done a charm bracelet shop but I did a posh toiletries shop and that's also showing as 0.00 so perhaps there's a glitch?

Well I know TNS Sassie does the same and BARE uses the same Sassie system, so maybe it's that? I hope I get paid for it though!

Is it just me or is everyone getting loads of visits? It was dead for a few months for me and now they just keep coming! Eeeek.

Absolutely swamped! So many more I could take on, if only I had the time!

Same here. I'm doing non stop shops one day a week, normally Friday. Somehow managed to fit 8 in today. I've already got 6 lined up for next week.

Does anyone know how strict TNS are on their timings I had a shop to do today but had to do it 3/4 hour early due to my son being sick I'm guessing I wont be paid i've submitted paperwork etc should I have contacted them first
