    Mine had an issue with waste on that metal one. so my visits stopped in november. Its a mid sized one but is classed top end for any MS work. I like it when I get it with TNS :)

    Hi

    we don't speak about the fees on here, companies do not like it.

    Sign up with some companies and you'll see the fees and maybe the briefings as well to give you an idea of what's involved. You dont have to do any jobs, just look.

    The fees will probably be a lot lower than you expect. And the visits will take you twice as long to start with. Remember to allow for the time filling in your reports. Like every job, it gets quicker the more you do but there are some jobs and reports that are always going to be horrendous.

    My first RE visit took 15 minutes. The report took 45!!!
  • Hello, haven't been on for a while, been plugging away though.

    Retail Eyes; had a restaurant job last night, got an email yesterday afternoon reminding me that I had a job which required doing that day, they hoped I'd enjoyed it, and if I'd been unable to do it I could re-schedule to tomorrow. All in past tense, even though I wasn't due to do the job for 3 hours. And even though I KNEW I'd agreed to do it in the evening, it did momentarily panic me and send me off to the website to check it wasn't a lunchtime job. :D And then, this morning, an URGENT email once again telling me that, if I didn't submit my results on time, I wouldn't get paid. GO AWAY!! So, obviously, I waited until 2 minutes to midday to press submit. Just cos I can. :D

    Anyway, had a ridiculous supermarket visit yesterday. Was a non-food version and I was supposed to visit various counters to ask questions. Except there was only one counter, which was also the main till, and was staffed by one incredibly grumpy girl the whole time I was in there. I must have been the most obvious mystery shopper in the history of mystery shopping, yet she didn't crack a smile once. :rotfl:
