Has anyone heard of Douglas Stafford?

I have been registered with them for ages. I have never done a job for them. My guess is that they focus on video MSing. I get emails every so often offering "jobs" but these are all just set-ups for the video-ers and there is no fee, only reimbursement of the service that you have to pay for.

Just spotted a thread for 'RE questions' that had someone ask a question ages ago, is being posted on again. Let's hope maybe these 1,000,000,000,000 new shoppers that hae signed up to RE in the last 5 mins find that thread rather than this one and think they are the only MS company out there!

Are the DIY store showroom visits on TNS easy, and how do you find out which have the bonus payment mentioned in the visit details?

Can be quite long winded depending on the scenarios they want you to carry out. They will take you at least half an hour to complete usually and February's ones look quite long winded from a quick look at the scenarios.

If you look at the pay on the system it will tell you there if there is a bonus attached to the store in question. They are only attached to outlying areas though.

My local one is easy, because the staff now stalk me round the store waiting to help me. I barely need to ask all the questions as most of the info is volunteered as soon as I speak. Do you think they've sussed me?

Got two non local shops to do this time and I would hope to be in and out in about 40 mins at most. I've done similiar scenarios before and I've got my routine now. As boyoboy says, any bonus is visible alongside the pay details.
