  • Nice :)

    I've got a big one showing for the 25th of this month after my crazy week last week... very excited about that!

    Gosh I'm excited for the weekend, no work and only 1 MS in sight - bliss!

    It doesn't matter which date you selected as long as it is done by the end of the timeframe.
    Thanks so much

    Generally you can do it any day within the given timeframe.

    However, make sure you click into the job from your inbox, read the summary (below the rate of pay info etc, read down to the start of the actual report). Some visits have restricted dates/time and the information is listed there.
    Thanks so much

    Hi all, long time shopper first time over here. Can anyone tell me how to get involved in video visits and if its worth my while investing in the gear to do it?
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    Hi NIM I have seen you on this thread before welcome! Well, it depends some companies give you monthly allocations and you have X time to complete or some you can pick and choose. So it depends if you have a lot of time?

    Contact the companies you work for currently and ask them how much video work they have. Most companies on the first page of this thread do video now... and you can google to see what companies also do video.

    "Is it worth investing" Anything is worth investing if you can put the time into it. It also depends on what you define as "worth it" The gear is going to run you close to 500.00

    Ouch, thats not exactly small change. I suppose the better way to phrase my question would be, as I work office hours what would be a realistic timeframe to recoup the outlay on such a purchase? I'm basically trying to work out if the added income is worth the outlay and level of extra work involved.

    personally I would say no, as the majority of video visits to businesses will fall in these office hours and you may not get enough visits to recoup your costs let alsone make a profit.

    anyone looking at my credit card bill would think I was bonkers- buying and returning 8 pairs of shoes in a week. I had to buy new socks yesterday after i put a hole through the ones I was wearing. Think HMRC will let me tax deduct them?
