Thought so I just read through everything and noticed it said would not be accepted by the MSPA.
In which case has anyone done the MSPA test?

I did it a couple of years ago, waste of time stupidly easy test and no extra work from it. Interestingly the test last a year but mine still shows as current. You would be better off buying a nice bottle of wine with the money!

Where are you getting decent wine for a tenner?

For the assignments at banks, does anyone know if a savings account is acceptable for those where transactions have to be carried out? I don't particularly want to open a current account at additional banks to carry out mystery shops, but would do with a savings account.

Most wines at £7/£8 a bottle are quite drinkable IMHO

I don't think so, pretty sure it say it needs to be a current account.

I have opened accounts with most high street banks just for mystery shopping, the majority of mine show £10 in £10 out on a regular basis

Ever done the right shop but in completely the wrong town?

Bought stuff you don't want, wasted £10 in petrol and lost 2 hours of your life you'll never get back. What a bummer.

You live and learn though

Nope, managed to shop what I thought was the only store in the town only to discover they had another, VERY well hidden one elsewhere in the town...which was the one they wanted visiting.

Did that with the Torso shop couple months back... no excuses it's my own city. Can't say I have done the right shop in the wrong city tho!

In other news, I was politely asked if I had done a MS last month at the shop I was in this morning, the staff member has seen me in there a few times. But says that the feedback from HO was almost verbatim to the convo that we had... I felt a bit of an a*se. But she is a lovely girl and I know it was a good report. I just said No and looked really confused. Then said I would be interested to know how to get in to it though if I can make some quick money! Caught me off guard!!
