Hi all,

I agreed over the phone to do two fast foods this morning for £50. When I checked my E-mail I found that they had been trying to get me to do the same two for £100 only a few minutes earlier.

Should I just suck up the fact that I verbally agreed to do these for £50 when I could have got £100 or should I make a fuss about it to try and get the £100?

Has anyone had any similar experiences, if so what did you do and what was the outcome?

Too late I'm afraid. You can make a fuss but what will you do? Cancel? It's a bit naughty by them but you did agree to the fee. I personally would bite the bullet and see it as a lesson learned. Better than trying to be difficult with them and getting the 'dear John' letter!

The ready mix drinks are good, some have cocktails too- mojito is seasonal
(Can drink it in the rain)

Hi does anyone know if you can negotiate fees? Ive noticed a certain sports shop visit near me hanging around for a while but imo the fee is a bit low for what needs doing. Does anyone know if the company frown upon you contacting them and saying I would do this visit for such and such a price?

Thanks

Sweetie, can you go back and edit your post as you have the client name on there. You are bad!

They don't negotiate as far as I know, they just up the fee when they get desperate. However, I have noticed that they now set visits to SELF ASSIGN instead of allocating, so someone who has never had a visit from the said company will just go ahead and pick it up instead of being allocated extra money.

If anyone has any birthday presents they need to get, check out BOOTS. They have a £10 off when you spend £50 on fine fragrances (some of which have already been reduced and are on promotion). It also applies to premium skincare which no doubt classy MYSTERYME uses what with her super posh handbags etc Apparently the offer ends on Monday, so have a look in store or online. If going in store, print out the extra point vouchers from the ACM machine first and boost your points.

hello, does anyone have any experience of using an ipad for entering ms results on various sites? inc uploading photos to the reports (i take the pics on iphone and have the cloud so they should sync across). thinking of getting one if ipad is pants, does anyone else use any tablets that are good? would also like some kind of spreadsheet function as well (have excel on lappy but no product keys left.) doesnt have to be massively complicated, just want one that can add up columns thanks
