Your diary might be healthy, but how you managed to eat all those unhealthy food in one day??

Hey,

First of all I am relatively new to MS'ing. I have done a few visits for RE and done a 100 mile round trip for TNS! Just wondered why now I have over 50 points in my RE account I cannot view anymore jobs its just saying 5 Misc jobs available and they are all abroad or in airports, I have a wide area available (Over 40 Miles!) However I have had no jobs available for nearly a week now? I am based in south east london/Kent.
Also I have been signed up with GR for over a month and still no jobs available? They must not like me _party_

It is possible that RE just have no suitable jobs for you just now. I am in pretty much the same situation as you, and under normal circumstances the majority of my work comes from them.

Also, you can add new postcodes to your profile in GR, and the general consensus seems to be that the best thing to do is to add the postcode of your local shopping centre or supermarket. Certainly worked for me!

I'm lucky if I get a GR job once every 2 months or so. Have been with the company for 4 years now and have done 39 assignments. Have in most cases picked up the ones in my area and have probably only missed out on 30%. That's me living in the largest shopping centre in the NW !!

Its not about how wide the radius is though with GR - they offer the jobs to the shoppers closed to the postcode of the shops so you need to make sure your postcode is smackl bang in the middle of a retail park or shopping centre

I've been with them since January and I've done 14 visits and missed out in about 9 I think (most back at the beginning when I was getting used to the fastest finger first with them)
