    Hi - has anybody done the react job were you purchase a rather expensive item online and then return it? I agreed to a last minute request from Ted yesterday and now discover that I have to pay for return myself. I have sent emails to React and the online company but neither have replied so can anybody confirm that it is OK to return via post office as long as recorded and wether I will be reimbursed for this? Thanks

    Quick question about the Gap supermarkets - i've got one to do later, but the notes say

    "Observations from two specified serviced departments"

    Where do I get those from? Maybe I'm being really thick (its been a long long day with very stupid Americans today!)

    Hmm, didn't realise tns had a major financial client. All I see are supermarkets, diy, cars and phones.

    Well i'm giving up the MS'ing, i'm not making any money at all, not a penny. I've only done 1 job since Jan 1st, there seems to be nothing in my area, and its not for the lack of trying. I always got good reports, no proofreading queries, so I can only put it down to the amount of MS'ers in the region.

    Anyway just wanted to thank all for all the help over the years, this forum has proved invaluable and I thank you all.

    Anyone seen teh TNS e-mail... naughty person!


    Yes also had a copy but not worked for them for a while since very few jobs available and very limited to what day they are carried out. Only every saw supermarkets though and never financial clients.

    I have a similar problem and other ms'ers are much faster with the finger to grab the jobs than me :( even the very low fee jobs seem to go in a flash so I treat it as a now and again thing

    good luck in the future:)

    I also saw that too - I thought that there were some financial jobs a few months back but the fee was quite low at the time for the amount of work which needed to be done.........

    I havent seen any jobs like that with them though for MONTHS and I never bothered applying for them.

    Still, not good when its down to one person though is it.

    I am sure that it will be picked up by another company though.
