    Has anybody ever seen mobiles on Abai?

    Been with them over a year and don't recall an alert for them ever. I never see clothes (but have seen alerts)

    Just curious as to if this client is still active?

    I did a couple of these jobs back in June. Havent seen any since.

    TG is venturing into pastures new tomorrow. GR rang last week asking me to do an audit in a town I don't usually go to, a bit further away than I'd like to travel, but always up for a challenge I accepted.

    I have now got SEVEN jobs , from various companies, in the same town tomorrow!!

    ST00ZER would be so proud .....

    No, but I know a good place to get advise and helpful chat.

    I used to do quite a bit of work for them (although haven't done anything recently). They were always OK and paid on time - although if you agree any increased fees with them, get them to confirm via email, just to avoid any confusion. That's just my opinion though.
    If it weren't for mystery shopping I would never have discovered the joy of launch control.

    Ditto what Ninja said. Wish they had more clients!

    Has anyone done the credit card company for GFK? I did one today. Asked the doughnut who did my application to cancel it when I revealed I was the mystery shopper. He said he would. But then I got an email saying I was successful in my application for a credit card, and that if I followed the click and agreed, I could have it sent out. I'm in a panic now. I don't want another credit card. Called the number at GFK and not heard anything from them. Eeeeek!

    Lesson to learn with any credit card application shops: Give false details. I always transpose numbers for bank accounts, use a different last name, date of birth and address. If last name is Boyle change it to Boyd and that sort of thing.

    Oh pooh! From now on, I am going to say my name is MIMI 1234. LOL. Not impressed at all, and the fee was not much either.
