    I've not had any bank jobs with GFK for a while either. And I am definitely an ordinary MS person. Have had lots of other jobs with them though so presume I am still generally OK :)

    I've seen quite a lot recently but never taken any (due to the whole student bank account thing and I don't reaaally want to open a second current account).
    Might just be a location thing.

    Funny - as I've had some bank jobs and not a huge amount of other things available!

    there is government warning there not to go outside unless necessary due to risk of death... they dont mince their words, but only up to this week its been business as usual on all the roads etc and they dont even bother to grit them there. A few inches here and everything grinds to a halt !


    LOL sad part is in canada we still had to go to frickin school in that weather.

    Charming, thanks for the warm welcome

    Hi Moppy,
    Best advice I can give you is get in touch with the MS company. Pretty cool to deal with.

    I didnt see any bank jobs for about a 3 month period then they came back.
    Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk

    Don’t forget that GFK had more than one bank customer, there is one of them that I have not seen since early November. The other 2 are still done every month.
  • There are still bank jobs but only with one, well that's what I'm finding. I'm getting offered loads but can only do 4 a month and a lot of them aren't viable as they're far away and cost too much in petrol and parking.

    That's so true! I had forgotten that! I used to do 2 other bank jiobs where you didn't have to have an account to do them.

    The current ones on GFK you need to have an account with so it could be that the people who can't see them don't have an account?
  • Haven't seen one bank client since September (the better one too!) and another since November, the more annoying of the three as you usually need to sit down and talk to someone. The third, where you sometimes need an account, I did two jobs last month - I wish they were as easy to come by here as they seem to be elsewhere!
  • Good to see RE have lost a client to GR
