    Thanks Mysterious and Clippy, luckily it's something small, lightweight and low in value I have to order so return postage shouldn't be too bad. Can imagine how annoying having to pay £12 postage out the fee would be though!
  • My OH are both registered with RE but I noticed tonight that he has 2 washing machine visits available to him yet I don't. Any particular reason that anyone knows of? Bless him, he's never bought a washing machine in his life or is that the criteria?

    And.....

    He gets offered all the cheap sandwich shops, screeds of them (and phone calls about them) but I don't.

    They might want a bloke for the scenario. My other half and myself often have different listings for no apparant reason.
    He's never bought a washing machine? Mr Finlay has never used one!!

  • Omg, just done a ching ching q audit, got right to the end and the manager noticed me, so she said hi are you from x? I said no just doing a audit, the look of horror on her face after the initial nice greeting and handshake, she then put her head in her hands and said oh no, I felt so bad!, she did ask for details of how many were closed, but I just said I cant say, dont want her disputing anything, poor lamb

    What's up with the new maximum number of characters in the comments boxes for React visits? I'm doing one at the moment, after saving it and returning to the report the Oops has said cut down my characters to a max of just 60! For some of them it's a bit difficult to get all the information on. Has anyone else noticed this? The report I did on wednesday didn't have this.
  • Hi all - only been doing Mystery Shopping for a few months and have mostly been doing GAP Burgers. Have done 4 this month and applied for one today that had a nice premium payment. For some reason it's come up as cancelled/rejected despite still being available on the Job Search page. Has anyone any idea why they would do this?

    Thanks in advance.

    Thing is they can have 20 closed and 1 open as long as there is no more then 3 customers at said till it doesn't matter.

    You did right there though don't discuss it with them.

    It might be that you were the last person to do the MS at that particular location or another shop could be taking place the day before or after your applied for date?

    There is only one date available so unlikely there's a visit either side but you may be right. I did the same shop 10 days ago and I may have been the last person to do that location. Thanks for that.

    It will automatically reject if 1 third or more of your jobs are Gap burgers.
