    No love. I'm talking about the guy! He will call, and I tell him I AM NOT INTERESTED. Then he calls back in 10 minutes and offers me the same job again with the same fee. I tell him NO THANKS. And then he calls back and I don't answer. I don't really see anything mean about that!!

    Fair enough, I can see that being annoying.
  • I wonder if it's the same guy who regularly calls me with jobs nearly 400 miles away, because the first letter of the postcodes is the same? :D

    Just looked. Somebody has picked all the Huddersfield jobs up on ESA. (circuit of 8 maybe. Roughly a 30/40 mile round trip. 40 @ 40p = £16. x 8 packs of eggs = £13ish 8 x purchase. Maybe £7 giving on what they buy and some can refund, maybe the same profit as 3 phone calls for RE)

    Not for me!

    Heard it whilst doing a ms today! PS. Someone has cleaned out almost all the eggs near us. Bet it's a newbie who thinks they've picked some wicked jobs. LOL.
  • On the North East coast (South Shields) - where are you? We seem to go for all the same jobs lol

    Nottingham. I was just thinking we seem to be going for all teh same stuff. I think its cos we seem to have started around the same time and joined the same companies.

    Just filling out my big GFK bank one now. I actually found it really really useful and has done me good!

    Quite possibly! Maybe calling him dumb was a bit harsh, but I was trying to get home in a snow storm in December with very little battery and he kept calling. What I supposed to say? Funk off? LOL. Maybe I should have done?

    Other companies are spot on. They call or email once, I say no, end of. With ESA, it goes on and on and on.

    I've got a GfK bank tomorrow and another on Friday, as well as a RE pub on Friday night and a RE burger on Sunday. Really hoping to get that Helion job for Sunday too.....

    I am going to register with AmberArch I think but it looks very similar to react surveys, something about Sassie systems.

    Are they both different? Is Sassie just a piece of software used by more than 1 company?
