Do a search of past threads been discussed lots before. I have an 01296 number if you want it but you can call 0800 numbers free using 01212840800 it will then ask you for the number you want
That's very true, I think it'll be easier if I think of it like that - it's just a shame you don't 'reveal' yourself at the end - for some reason I'd thought when I'd hear about it in the past that that's what would happen! Good idea, I will have a look back, these discussions must've happened before I joined. Thanks for the number recommendation, I will save that in my phone book!Boredupnorth wrote: »If you have a smart phone download an app called 0800 wizard and one called 08 wizard I use them both a lot
Ooh, I use SayNoTo0870 but hadn't come across these - just downloaded 0800 Wizard and put it GR's number, it sent me via an 01536 number. But it worked, which is the important thingThanks!

Ooh I didn't realise that about Gap limiting assignments to 8 per location per year - might start being more choosy.
Cannot believe the RE train assignments - not only are they not paying for your ticket but they expect you to sit there without reading, listening to music, using a laptop or mobile or even going to the loo!
As the assignment clearly asks if you are a regular user of the service I don’t understand why you would expect them to pay for the trip, They are targeted at commuters etc., they are not looking to send people on train jollies just to asses this one element. For the fee and reimbursement it would not be worth the time to write the report for this one though…..I bet they will be still be snapped up quickly though0 -

I wonder if they will pay anything if the service doesn't go through the train ??0 -
Just agreed to my first assignment as a mystery shopper! :j It looks like one of the most basic shops and already I'm finding it a bit much - pretty much one pound per each of the 13 pages of notes!!!!!Saving £10,000 in 2013: £4491.48/£10,0000
