    And if I get it, you are bringing yourself over to Leeds for a nice meal courtesy of me. :

    Anyone else read this as "a nice meal courtesy of TMDC that I'll write the report for"

    Good luck with the job mimi, I'll be sad if you stop shopping and taking everyone out for a cheap meal :)

    Hey all, ref TNS car visits, the 'p..car' ones: I used to do lots of these but had a 6 month or so break, but I'm doing some this week and had a small question I hope someone can clear up for me. I know you have to upload all the materials receive ie brochure price list etc, but do you have to do the whole things ie 40 odd pages in some brochures. I'm assuming not, all I used to do was send the first page, is this still ok? Can someone confirm they have done this last wave and it's been ok?

    Also, how long is it taking roughly for materials to be checked and authorised for pay, it used to be about 2 or three days after submission, is this still the case (ie will the ones I submit this week be paid at the end of this month?)

    Hope everyone is having fun this week btw!!

    Luke

    Done more than enough telephone interviewing to last me a lifetime, they'd want to double the rate of pay for me to go do that and put up with all the "your just trying to sell to me you parasetic leech", actual quote, comments that will ensue
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.

    mm i used to do a load of calls for one of the bank client companies ages ago but
    it was paid per full questionnaire so you ould make 40 calls to get an answer
    id want guaranteed pay per hour + an increase bonus as you say to do them i think

    Yup, and at that rate they can swing.

    Cheeky! LOL. I wish. All the bloody restaurants that "that" company shopped have closed down, the fish and chips one, the italian one, the oriental one!!! It was pointless me getting myself to blonde status! Besides NIM would be a more expensive one for he is worth it.

    And thanks for the good luck, doubt I will get it, but you never know, pigs might fly and all that.

    Did anyone else get an email from QDOS about hotels? I replied straight away and she never replied. Guess it must have gone to someone else. Boohoo.

    I emailed TNS today about the missing recorded phone shop payment and they have set up a new fake job for it and I will be paid at the end of this month for the extra part. I mentioned the briefing payment but she said they arent doing them any more as it is a part of the job or something like that.

    mm a late night MF drinking venue seems to have moved to RA judging from the email I just received

    or just outsourcing anyhow
    think its better fee and reimbursement too
