    Could somebody send me the log in link for Blue Apple. I am sure I have worked for them but can not find them on my bookmarks. Thanks very much.
    No Matter what you do there will be critics.

  • Applied a few days ago for the mystery dining company and today got a thanks but no thanks.

    Thank you for your application to become a mystery diner. Unfortunately your application has not been successful on this occasion. This may be due to your application not meeting specific requirements for the locations you have selected or the quality of your application.

    Unfortunately we are unable to give any further details but we would like to thank you for your time.

    Bit peeved as my answers were really concise and as been mystery shopping for the past 3 years would have thought I would be accepted. Ho hum I suppose. Look on the bright side the diet is safe for now !!!

    I have a feeling that they are one of the companies that want 'normal people;, not people that do lots of Mystery Shopping, so maybe telling them your experience might have gone against you.

    I might be wrong though :D

    Possibly just that they don't need anyone in your area??

    Have been checking out merchandising companies on line and have come across this company who seems to have regular work all over the country. Have not worked for them, and do not get a referral fee, but it could be profitable for people in the right area. I spoke to a lovely lady this morning who confirmed that they are looking for people who can work a certain number of hours on set days, so this isn't for me.

    Hopefully, it may benefit some of you guys.

    Unfortunately your experience has gone against you! TMDC don't like professional mystery shoppers or any with too much experience it seems. I applied last year and put my job as mystery shopper/auditor and did really thorough answers. I got the same thanks but no thanks e mail. However, I applied again recently and put my job as house wife and lo and behold I was accepted!

    It could however, be due to the fact that they are not recruiting in your area. Did you check the list of places they need shoppers before you applied?
