GR pay around the 1st and 15th WORKING day of the month so won't do the pay run until tomorrow or Monday I would guess in the bank Tuesday / Wednesday next week

Ahh yes just seen the starter has been removed from the Italian brother's job, still doesn't make enough of a difference though considering how much they've wiped off the reimbursement.

I can't remember the last time I saw anything on MF apart from gambling and beds. I think they've taken against me.

Not that it's much of a loss, by the sounds of it.

Ive been signed up with MS for around 6 months and have just been offered my first job. Cant believe the fee is so low. They can stick their jobs !!! Are they all like this ?

5 years ago it was a good job.
fees are dropping daily, problem is some people will do it for peanuts so if the jobs go when the pay has been dropped they will keep seeing what they can get away with..

They are usually OK for the amount of work you have to do, I certainly can't see any jobs that I would say were priced quite low.

Just attempted an RA toy shop but I knew the shop assistant bit of a !!!!!! but someone will pick it up.

The better money is in audits, price checking etc and you can negotiate extra money. I dont do mystery shopping any more but have taken on lots of price checking and promotional audits etc. If they are desperate to have a job covered they will pay petrol so make sure you ask.

Obviously, I don't know what the fee is that you are referring to. Lots of magazines make it sound like easy money, but the reality is quite different. I do this full time and make an okay living, but I think its much harder to get started now than it was when I started.

Got this reply from MF -

Thank you for your email.
We now have 2 different types of xxx assignments one is a high reimbursement as you have to order one dessert and one starter.
I hope this helps.


Mine still has the dessert in the brief, only the starter has been removed. If both had been taken out then the big reduction in reimbursement would make sense. I'll have to email them again.
