    I like gfk reports as well. Not too long and they include all the necessary questions without asking how it made you feel :)

    Personally I think RE reports are the best. I personally feel as if I've been conned by the time I've been asked how I feel five different ways!

    Yes they did....but they did not include my 3 figure theme park visit :(:(. I wouldn't mind, but I booked and paid for it at the beginiing of June and visited mid June.

    They've paid me in the remittance advice received today for the theme park I did on 19th june.

    When I did the waxworks, however, earlier in the year, they paid me for the small quid "complaint" job and I had to wait another month for the main visit payment!

    Yes, that's what's happened!! I really can't afford to wait another month for the payment for the theme park.

    I usually like GFk, but the lastest phone call one drove me nuts. Thirty questions on a two minute phone call?!

    Guess it will come in the next pay run. I got paid for 5 visits and I was only expecting payment for 2. Then realised they hadn't paid me for 3 I did a while ago. I really should check on which visits I had been paid for and which I haven't. I'm just so lazy!

    My favourite reports have to be with RM. They are so easy. Most are just YES or NO. Also they don't have word limits and it's not like an RE psychosometric test like report!

    PS. Watch out peeps. ESA are doing their phone calls for visits no one wants. I've had 6 calls in 2 days and I have not picked a single one up. Can someone please just do all the travel shops near me!!!

    I done 4 last year before they dropped the fee. The script tells you that you must use your own details. I done them all in the one day and in the second one I was getting strange looks, by the time I had parked the car and crossed the road they had had the phonecall from the one before and they had the kettle on.

    They also don't remove your details for the system like what GR travel agents do once they receive the report so the calls and emails go on and on.

    If they're calling, tell them you won't do it, and explain why, that's the best way to get them to realise the error of their ways. It takes more than one mind you...

    Well dear, I am talking abouot ESA here!!! You explain that to dumb bloke 1 who calls, and then half an hour later, dumb bloke 2 calls with the exact same get up, followed by dumb lady 1 and then another 1. It's like talking to a brick wall. I rather much preferred talking to the GAP people who didn't really have a clue what they were talking about.

    Are you sure you are talking about ESA? It's more like 5 minutes. And what they have also done recently is call the house, then the mobile and when you don't answer they try the house straight away again trying to catch you out doing 1471
