Was doing well with York train station then someone grabbed the third one

I did the 3 at my local station a couple of months ago and also did a GFK phone shop at the same time.............. Comparing the 3 versus the 1 with GFK I really thought why did I bother with RE!

Please, PLEASE can you check before posting an ALert that it hasn't already been posted?

Just this morning there have been 2 alerts for ESA egg banks, 2 alerts for RE beds, 2 alerts for RE railway food and 2 alerts for ESA egg pharmacies

Bed place on RE. By warned that you'll struggle to find anything to buy for under the reimbursement value.

Having the same issue, looks like they don't do one themselves but advise the use of a number of independent ones.

It seems (from enquiries with the MSC) that they just need the page that tells you what services you can get.

Has anyone else had the "Friendly Reminder....." email from RE? Just opened mine up and it seemed really genuine and then its like Dear Sir / Madam. !!!!!!!

Dear, us in West Yorkshire are special. Our visits only go on at midnight for some deluded reason. I bet the cookies and the pet shops will go on then! Only thing I can see now is a horrid chicken shop!

I rush on everytime someone alerts for RE and there is sweet f/a on there each time! Boohiss....

Not just West yorks... I see nothing for my area, I haven't done a job for RE for about 3 months. I remember people talking about a new reporting system a while back.. I am yet to experience!

I see the odd pub that the reimbursement wouldnt cover what they ask you to buy and the fee is poor (you all know the ones)

And I dont even think polythenegirl is taking all the jobs either:D

TractorGirl has named and shamed you all!!!! Hang your heads in shame!!! Only messing . Im tired of seeing all the alerts for RE and it being nothing more than what was there yesterday... oh and a few airports.

Well that's good to know. Most of the time, I think people are just making up things to alert about as I have very rarely seen a thing!

As for the pubs, please go back to TNS and give us decent reimbursements so we can actually buy a dessert too! It was a good reimbursement back in the day and you could go on your own and spend all the money on food and drinks for yourself. Drooooooooool!

PS. I won't alert again but more CAFES / DANCING ROOMS have gone on the company that cannot be named. SERENDIPITY my gorgeous young lady friend, I have pm'd you as one has gone up in your area me thinks!

Its legit, they changed it after Market Force bought them out. The yanks have actually made them worse as a MSC to work for IMO.

Also my bad on that TG, I'll pay more attention to whats already on the Alerts in future.
