Any video shoppers about ?
Do any of you have the PV500EVO ?
Just need a bit of advice.....
has it been withdrawn due to technical issues?
Thanks

Where did you hear that from LOL? I use the EVO so does YONK, the BU13 camera has had some faults but not the unit.

Is there any way of silencing the click?

Hope everyone is busy,my month has been filling up nicely in the past few days.

I have a cafe in a supermarket for RE next week, can a friend accompany me, paying for herself?
There is no mention in brief of attending alone.

I've had an email from RE saying that they're not paying me for a recent pub visit I carried out as I had the carvery which wasn't off the main menu, which the brief specified apparently. The thing is I have already been paid for the job, so does anybody know what will happen please?

I had a smililar situation with a sports shop which was passed for payment and then queired weeks later. I too was told I wouldn't be paid as they said I didn't interact with the staff member sufficiently but they never took the payment back. I assumed they would take the amount off my balance for the next months payment but no nothing happened!:)

I have now done my first ever job for ABa. Obviously, I haven't been paid yet, but I'm pretty happy so far.

The brief and the questionnaire tied in together nicely: both seemed clear and logical. Entering the report was something of a nightmare because the site was timing me out every three to ten minutes and the pages took ages to load. The report itself was a doddle, really, once I persevered.

ABa were super to deal with by email and over the phone. I even had a nice email from them after I had submitted my report.

OK, the fee wasn't what I would call great, but considerably better than certain other companies would have offered. There a few companies out there who could take lessons from ABa in how to keep their assessors happy!;)

I agree, this is one of my favourite companies to work for, although the jobs are few and far between for me unfortunately. The ladies who work there are lovely

Secret eating TONIGHT New night club in London, I phoned them yesterday and they sound brilliant. (They couldn't see I was a raddled old hag of almost 60, who didnt know the difference between hip hop and be bop on the phone!) Need to be 20-30 and clubby types, they are paying for drinks and meal. If you want detail let me know, not sure if you have to be a plat/gold?
