If any of you are planning on doing a round of Baguette shops today, make sure you check the brief for the times you can do them. Was ready to head out on a jolly circuit when I found that they could only be done between 3-8pm! I've got kids then so I'm going to have to drop them all now. :mad:
They can also be done on the weekend but unfortunately I can't work weekends as my husband is away during the week and goes completely mental if I disappear all day to go mystery shopping, which is fair enough I suppose!0 -

Too right.
I also had a query about what I'd bought, despite listing this in the comment section when I uploaded my receipt.
Sigh.0 -

I'm telling you, these clowns must make an extra 50p on every query they raise, why else would they do it?0 -
Did anyone get one of the high street clothes shops off RE?
The scenario isn't actually that bad... the fee is lowish but there is a decent reimbursement to go with it :P
Wonder what the report is going to look like..0 -

I've had some classics this week too including listing the fact there was no one else in the shop, that my wait time was 00:00 seconds and that I was perfectly happy with the service time, as I was in fact served immeditely.
Question: How long did it take you to be served?
I thought I was going mad, but I read the report back and I wasn't. What gets me is that they deduct mystery points from you, when they can't even be bothered to employ proper proofreaders. I'm aware they don't mean anything, but somehow when I see -1 proofreading query raised I feel violent!
A week ago I had a query back because I'd stated I had been asked an open question, in that it was "can I help you with anything today?" as I felt it prompted further response than yes or no. Anyway I replied that I thought it was but if they didn't consider it an open question then no, I wasn't asked one. The points have been added to my report but the payment hasn't been added to my account and its been removed from pending. They are such a bunch of jokers.
End of rant.0 -

No these aren't "underground" but the former Egg shops, if that makes sense!0
