I have been trying to increase the number of companies I work for, can anybody tell me about AmberArch, I am a bit concerned because the reports seem very involved for such a small fee. I have looked at a garage job but am not happy about supplying third party details (although I could make up a totally fictitious person with a real postcode? Many thanks and happy Wednesday

I'm doing one of those today - I've got a colleagues permission to use her details. But the first thing you do when you leave is call someone and he removes yours and their details. I thought it sounded OK for the fee....but then I have only been doing this a week lol

Thanks MG, you have confirmed what I thought! I have learnt over the months that sometimes it is just not worth the i) petrol ii) the time.

I didn't find the kitchen one to bad if you look at that.

Thanks for the answers, I can not unfortunately see a kitchen one this time:(

I will be interested in finding out what katykittycat thought of the garage as there appears to be a few around my way (which I do not know if that is good or bad:D)

I'll PM you tonight when I've done the report.

I did a couple of garage jobs last week. I really wasn't looking forward to them but they were so easy. In an out in a few minutes. The company wasn't even mentioned both times so much more straightforward than expected. I was planning to use my old address and my maiden name so if any correspondence did end up there the new owners would just bin it, as it happens it never came to that.

Thanks, I was sure they paid on the 9th, must be getting confused.

Yes but you use your own money to buy the stuff and it can take up to a month to get your money back. That's what I meant when I said "out of pocket for quite a few weeks"

Sorry, I missed the "quite a few weeks" bit . Bit early this morning me thinks.

Did my first Gap burger in months yesterday. See that the price has gone up and the reimbursement hasnt. They were quick enough to lower the reimbursement when it went down with the VAT decrease. Funny how they're not so quick in putting it up. Have sent them a quick message pointing this out.

Bit busier this week. 5 electricals, 2 diy, 2 supermarket, 2 jewellery, 2 pubs, one charity, one burger. But nothing for next week.
