  • Has anyone done one of those Mystery Shopper phone calls? I did one on Monday. It was a no hassle call with a very good report to complete.

    The money is in the bank today!
  • Thought I was going to have a heart attack.

    Just gone through 90% of the MFers beauty store report without being asked to provide 'comments'.

    Then at the end is the obligitory 500 essay, and the best/worst aspect.

    But I have to say, not a bad job really.

    I have 2 to do tomorrow - glad to hear they aren't too bad :)
  • Re The Gap stamp shops, can anyone confirm that stamps are considered a reasonable purchase?

    Postage stamps are ok, savings stamps aren't.

    GFK are getting on my tits (not that I have any mind!). I keep getting emails saying VISITS IN YOUR AREA, and there clearly are no visits as I am bloody logged on and on the hunt all the time. Lying bar stewards!

    Did anyone else get the email from GFK about some loan enquiry with a killer fee or something along those lines?

    Oh an GASTRONOMIX, I already told you postage stamps are allowed by GAP. Doh!

    Wrong

    Really? So why is everyone scared of mentioning them then? Or at least that's the impression I got.

    And will the real Slim Shady please stand up?

    What? You mean someone else has a day off is on the prowl for visits by constantly clicking on the various websites? Hmmm, maybe. Doubt it though!!!

    Did anyone else notice that as soon as you pick up the phone shop on GFK, all the others disappear? Me thinks it's alerting for more of these phone shops, but they obviously have disappeared since I have already picked one.
  • People don't want to mention their name beause theya re a very respected company who have specifically asked their members not to mention them on here by name?

    Do share then!
