    Certainly of late there has been a spate of no fee and only reimbursements paid, so I don't bother. I then noticed that many of these jobs surface again, released and expired.

    Hopefully, the more this happens it might alter their perspective down the line.

    I've also noticed that jobs stick around on my page for Marketforce now, whereas jobs used to jump off the page before I had a chance to see them. Sadly, I now see the jobs but don't want them :rotfl:

    If you are looking for jobs now, yes. But there were plenty of jobs released last week to keep us busy, it happens at the start of each month, various MSC's release loads of jobs for the next week to ten days.

    Absolutely shocking. I have also discovered that 'half' of the local FE college are signed up with TNS.

    Your the first person on my email!

    This is a !!!!!!! joke. It's happened at least 5 times to me know.

    I want to ring. Anyone got a number?
    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!

    I have 631 email addresses of people on their database, I would guess the vast majority live in Scotland/North England.

    Nice if I wanted to set up my own MSC...

    Blimey, I just had a random guess at 150. I don't think we are far from each other so it will be the same email. Complete joke?

    I see they have 'recalled' the email. I wonder if we will get a 'hello shoppers' apology at some point.
