SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

You're not helping!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't regret it for a second. I loooooooovvvvvveeee my phone.

I'm no longer anti-social by not leaving my house as i don't have the alerts thread displayed on my laptop lol

I write off half my bill (£20) on my tax return (as the additional £20 was incurred purley by getting a more expensive mobile/tariff for ms work) and i hope on to loads of site.

Especiall good for checking RE if you wake in the middle of the night or just before you sleep. Sad i know but it works!

I second getting a smart phone too. I've got the Xperia Arc and I absolutely love it to bits.

I claim all the bill as an expense as I really only use it for work. Before I was doing this job, I just had a cheap basic PAYG phone for emergencies, and if I still had a job in a fixed place of work, I'd probably still have one.

My current contract expires in September. It's a 18 months for free deal with 100 minutes and 500 texts - love cashback deals! More than enough for me. I'm at home a lot with laptop on, so don't miss many jobs.

Crunch is that I'm going back to teaching in September, so mystery shopping will become a thing of the past.

But I go back to todays phones prettiness!!!!! TBH, this happens to me after every phone shop I do...I'm getting used to the feeling of putting it aside.

Still have 1 more of these jobs to complete. I'll not sign on the dotted line, I shan't!

WEEG - just seen your question on the previous thread about Gap coffee jobs - no, sadly you can't order Skinny coffee, as this was affect the weight of the drink. That's why I never drink them either (well, that and the fact that their coffee is rank!!)

Thanks very much for that. I'm trying to do weightwatchers at the moment. I'm half wishing gap would dump me.

I'm in this category with a cheap pay as you go, so it seems a bigger leap to a contract and to get all of the websites do you need a fairly good phone and therefore a £30+ contract? My other thought was to get a netbook and try using free wifi with BT or use chains with free wifi to check during the day. Not so handy to check at night though like missarahleigh says and will I spend a fortune on coffee?

Yes, I wonder if they would appreciate an email informing them of the declining standards of some mystery shopping companies and a lack of clarity and detail in visit instructons?

Stupid convoluted visits, with "Look at me, I'm a mystery shopper" scenarios - but no spelling mistakes!

Hi all,

I completed my first check for ISC yesterday and all went well (I think) ! Is there a reason why they're not in the companies list?
