    In addition to this, make sure to keep the email/s you've sent to them in your sent folder, until at least when you get paid - they've been known to claim they haven't received results and try to get out of paying. As someone new to them, you're probably quite susceptible to this.

    they sound like a bunch of cowboys

    This was discussed quite recently (again) if you have a search back

    I find Consultant covers it well with business services as the sub section. Be sure to declare a part time job if putting house wife/husband/homemaker and add business cover too or risk invalid cover in event of a claim. Only costs a few pounds extra usually.

    Yeah, I mentioned I had seen it a while back but it was talking about for car insurance purposes. My post was asking in general what do you refer to yourself as (not for insurance purposes). Sorry if this has also been covered.

    I have a FT job, so I don't really discuss this side of things too much. My boss is aware of what I do since I take time off/long lunches/leave early fairly often and he's flexible about it. I was honest, but talk more about the boring/auditing side of things so they don't get too interested in wanting to do it themselves!

    I make it sound tedious and boring too. I don't want any more competition that I have already. More than happy to recommend to folk far awar from me though ;)

    Is it just me that has very little work this coming week and onwards? I have 2 emails and 2 ms and that's it. No more. Anyone else in the same predicament? :o

    I always tell people at work about the hotels and stuff that I visit and encourage them to sign up. The way I figure it is that the company who I do most of my work for won't let me stay in the same hotel more than once a year anyway!

    Wasn't expecting TNS phone payments for the jobs I did a few weeks ago - my bank account was nicely surprised this morning :)

    RM have paid today too.

    Do we still get a statement from TNS? I'm still owed money. The telephone calls I did have not been paid for and I only got paid the normal rate for the dictaphone visit I did! Errrr.

    I've been paid by TNS. Very nice of them to list all three quick stores i did, although it would have been nicer had they paid me for 3 instead of 1!
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    Ditto. Got 2 this week, but that's it. I had zilch last week, but I'm happy about that though due to the sun!
