If you google first tracking, they're the first (and second) hit.

Thanks! I'm at work and Google does NOT like my work network for some reason so it was bringing back really weird things. You'd think working in an IT company they woudl make sure that there systems are compatible with everyday used stuff!

Using the spreadsheet to fill in my tax return for next year, can I claim mileage to two separate places on the same day in the same area, or just claim for one lot of mileage?

clippy_girl

has anyone had a present from gap in the last few days? :rotfl:

my cinemas arent listed on FT but three of them are on the list of available cinemas that i ticked the box for. if they are not available now does that mean they dont do them (even though they are on the tick list)?

also, signed up to retail active but have not received log on details to the website. email said i will be emailed with assignments. seen alerts, do i need to work for them for a while?

thanks

(PS i have not been on the thread for a while, only loked through last 3 pages so apologies in advance if recently asked).

Well for all the alerts that have gone on today and can confidently say i have seen 1. The one i posted.

Nothing on GFK and nothing on RE. Petrol (not petrol) not in my area, no postal drops on ESA. not a sausage.

p.s. could somebody kindly tell me the name of RE bowling. Never seen it so assume it is a company not in my area but would like to check just incase as i do like bowling.

It depends on when you did them. If you had to do one, then go home, then go out again to do the other then you can claim for there and back to both places as the timeframes were different. If you travelled from one to the other then it's the round-trip mileage that counts.

You can only do that with claiming expenses from the MS companies if you are doing jobs for two different MS companies who both pay mileage, as they won't know about each other.

The only one I've seen was one postal drop on ESA... none of the others... need to get quicker fingers me thinks

I just got a text from retail maxim there.... it says it was sent at 15.00 though.

How long after sending are their assignments usually available for? (Is it worth me phoning up tomorrow? there is noone in at the moment)

Oh and yay! I completed my first shop ever today.

Hiya,

My eldest son is at uni and the following is one I found for him.

TNS were recently looking for 18- 20 year olds to register, they were asking for people to email if interested:

msshop@tnsglobal.com and write 'OSBAD New Recruit Application' in the email header.

I find Grass Roots very good to work for, although the jobs seem to go very quickly so you'll need to check the website as often as possible. They're on the list on the front page of this thread.

If you're a typical student who stays up till God knows when most nights, and live near a town centre you could do OK out of Retail Eyes as they seem to upload most of the work at night time (12pm onwards).

Good luck with it all and the studies.

Thanks for that, and yeah when I accepted my first shop it was at about 1am :P
