Gutted...the only things on Bare I can see are bloomin car ones. I hate going into the garage or dealerships and I won't do them. Looks like I've missed out on everything else as per.

*manzy*

Can anyone tell me tell me if the status for jobs done on TNS ever changes from 'booked in'? I've done 12 since Dec 2nd and haven't been paid for any.

They stay as 'Booked In'. You should have been paid for December visits by now though. Have you worked for them for long? Have you definitely given your correct bank details?? They post you details, including a 'wage slip' type thing at the end of each month for the jobs you are being paid for. Have you had this?
If not, maybe drop them an email.

Thanks. These were the first jobs I've done for them. Thought I'd maybe missed Dec cut off. Hopefully get decent pay from them this month-I could really use it after xmas spending!!!

Does anyone know if I can use a debit/credit card at a bookies, or is it cash only? First one and I'm slightly nervous.:cool:

You can use a debit card no problem, although they may insist that any winnings are returned to the card by refund which will take a few days to get back to your account. You cannot use a credit card in a betting shop as its illegal.

I use cash. That way I don't look suspicious and only spend the minimum. It's far too tempting to put more on. All the regular punters in my local one use cash and coins

I agree with that, the betting shops are the only ones I use cash for unless it says to use cash in the brief, I use my card the rest of the time as it's what I normally do, I find it far easier to have all my money in the bank so I know exactly how much I have and know it's available to spend in a shop or buy something online with when I want to. I also won't misplace any coins, and my sister can't nick any of my money for fags when she runs out.

Not necessarily. the cut off in december for getting work in and the receipts, was 10th. So anything that was done after that date will go on the pay run for the 28th of January.
Cut off date is usually the 14th of the month.

Thanks for all your replies guys. As its such a small amount, I'll probably use cash. And as I intend to win (LOL) its more money in my pocket:rotfl:
