Local Courier Services .net- Any dealings?

Options
Hi guys

Currently in my notice period before I go back, yes back, to university in september. Starting to really get tired of my job and still have so much money to save up to pay off all the extras I had forgotten that come with uni life!

Decided I'd look into couriering. Found the website for local courier services .net who said they where looking for part time work when you can couriers with own car/ van

Read the blurb, signed up then they said I had to pay £75 to show I was serious about doing this work. I will let you all have a look at the website rather than write it all in here, dont worry though, there is very little to read once you find it.

Should I pay £75 to a company I dont even know?! Seems a silly question but on rare occasions these things turn out not to be a scam but genuine business investments!

Cheers!

    That's all you need to know. Don't touch them with a bargepole.

    This company has been posted here more than once, do not go near them and do not pay any money upfront. In fact never pay any company upfront that offers this, otherwise you wont see your dosh again.
  • I certainly would NOT pay any up front fees. I have just sent an application form into Jural Legal Services. They are based in Blackpool( which is where I am from) but that is irrelavent really, they have very little work in my area. Basically you are working as a self employed courier to collect signed legal documents. As I am already employed full time I will hopefully be doing a couple of jobs during the week in the evening and when I have chance a full day saturday. They pay between £20-25 pound per job, and are recruiting from all areas of the country. I found it through peopleperhour.com. Give it a look. xxxxx
