Lol this sounds very similar to what I got the last time, although whoever it was on the end of the phone asked if I had any morals when I said I would happily do the visit for £X (4 times what it was on the board).

Then there was the phone call asking me to travel from Hamilton to Dunoon.

Had to use google maps to see how far that is. Good grief. Seriously I know many of you guys MS on a full time basis and travel a fair bit, but all that way for standard fee? Some companies take the mick.

You can cut a couple of hours of it by driving to Greenock and taking the ferry. When I said to him that this would involve a boat trip I got 'OH'

I did wonder if you would swim the last bit.

I see my local convenience store is on GFK... absolutely takes the mickey for the fee though, and could it be any more obvious standing there with a leaflet checking millions of products? Got excited and then... didn't.

Morning all! :hello:

Long time no see!



No, don't run away Miss Qwerty. I have a question to ask to the Suffolk MS contingent! Can anyone see the burger place near the cinema? I haven't seen any jobs for there for ages. Just wondering if I'd been banned from there.

I'm currently screened out of those particular jobs so can't help i'm afraid, although that happened at the one opposite the big pets shop for about 3 months last year and it turns out they were getting refurbished and the fancy DT screens installed so that may be why.

I've PM'd you about something different tho.

well thats your choice but actually it takes less than 10 mins and has a simple report. plus if you read the brief you will see you only need to check certain types of product depending on the store not all of them

re the person asking about abai- there are hundreds of jobs on there at the moment for the cat client. if you cant see them then they might be booked in your area- they dont have a 'london' area its all broken down. if you go on the client, change the option from local to other, put a * in the box and search it will bring them all up and you can search through.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused on the alerts thread, another poster had posted same just before so deleted my post.

Are you sure? It's usually 1 mon-thu visit and 1 fri-sat visit you can take. Not that I will be taking anything off them again until they pay me!

Your right Boredupnoth - Thanks so much for your reply - I misunderstood! I was able to pick up 2 more phone call assignments - Although I am not eligible for a Fri-Sat one in my local area yet - as did it less than 60 days ago..... I might think about travelling a bit further!! I have built up quite a collection of this jewellery since i started with Bare! I know I have to wait a while to get re-imbursed - which is of course a down side!! Thanks again for yoru response!
