Why do you think that? They owe me money, quite a lot, then they sacked me.

I had to return my measurement equipment too - they havent replied to confirm receipt.

I am getting worried.......

I was dropped by Gyp too. Never asked to return equipment, if I had been then I would have needed to be given freepost label first. After all, it was them that dropped me...

Which MS companies are recommended for the nationwide simple jobs that Gyp used to provide? I was already tieing in GFK, TNS, RE and Maxim jobs.

If anyone is in the Poole area, and they fancy a meal out tonight I see someone (not me) has realeased a job onto RE.

Can you use a voucher code to get cheap Pizza when doing it for Gapbuster? For example the Pizza company sells pizza's for around £15 but i have a voucher code for £9.99.. will this invalidate my job or no?

Don't do it.
And probably best to make sure you have read the notes thoroughly, as I'm sure it does specifically say No Vouchers.

Could anyone tell me what action TNS take if you cancel an assignment 4-5 days out please?

They're normally ok as long as you don't make a habit of it. You can always call them and ask to reschedule

Don't risk it. If offered a meal deal which would be stupid not not accept (eg the brief says to offer a pizza and side, and the deal for a pizza and 2 sides is cheaper, it's ok to accept the deal because no "normal" customer would say "Oh no that's ok, I want to pay more for less food ...." ... but vouchers are strictly a no-no.

You will get a badly worded, grammatically incorrect, impertinent email telling you off. If you constantly do it you will get an even ruder one and so on!!

Followed by one that stops just short of naming and shaming you to the rest of us with the following HELLO SHOPPERS (if they were to do it in a Welsh accent they would sound like Gladys from Hi-De-Hi), DUE TO LAST MINUTE CANCELATIONS AND DE-ALLOCATIONS and so on.

You forgot to add that it is then sent to shoppers in Land's End to mention a de-allocation in John O'Groats (or similar)

With a tagline saying that it is a general email sent to all shoppers in case you happen to be passing and apologies if it isn't relevant :rotfl:
