  • I'm with cybershop, I used to get loads of jobs, but over the last 6 months the jobs have declined rapidly. They are changing over to GfK which is on a self employed basis, where as NOP (cybershop) sort the tax out for you.

    NOP were taken over by GFK early last year, rather than confuse people, they have been going by the name of GFK / NOP while people get used to them, cybershop is just the name of the data entry screen, all my recent paperwork says GFK which is on a PAYE basis only.

    There is however, a new mystery shopping side to them coming out, which involves a completely new registration and a new site to use, this is on a SE basis only, where you will be offered the job, for a set fee, with no extra for mileage, parking and no deductions taken off. The new site has only just started with very few jobs being offered so far.

    From the feedback I have gained, both sites will run alongside each other with the work being offered on the SE part and if not taken, then be put on the PAYE side.

    I had heard that NOP/GFK were doing a website were you allocated your own jobs, is this what you are on about? If it is, do you have the link for it, would you be able to message it to me?

    Also is it true that Grassroots are transferring to online allocation??

    You may like to edit the name of the pizza company from your post, if your user name is your real name, the company will have no difficulty in identifying you, I know you haven't directly named the company, but you have copied something from their website, which is as much of a no no as breaking client confidentiality is. :beer:
