Please remove the client name and fee from your post! Read the brief it will tell you what you can and can't do

I've deleted the post as it is pointless without client name/fee! Sorry, I thought I had seen others mentioning names etc but in fact they had only mentioned the MS companies name, so once again sorry.

I have of course read the brief but it only states you can't visit the same branch more than once in 4 months. I just wasn't sure if I did the same assignment twice in one day but at different branches whether they would be paid/valid.

My question about the fee was because in the FAQ's is states fee's are between 6-10 (may be more if expenses incurred) so I thought it was quite high and might be missing something.

As I mentioned before, I can see a lot of you are obviously experienced and I am new, if this is the wrong board for posting questions etc on just let me know and I shall cease to bother you folk again

That happened to me and I got them to do a handwritten one. It was for MF and it was fine. [I did get a very strange look asking for it though because it was for a £1 cup of coffee!]

Gave up on the job! girl behind the bar ignored me when I asked for a receipt. Think she was too busy on the phone to her friend!! she was on the phone for the entire time I was in there! she was on it when I entered and still on the same call when I left! I was in there for over half an hour!

Was surprised their wasn't sawdust on the floor of the place!

Sorry guys! I just needed a moan and rant! (It takes a lot to get a Scotsman to leave a pub willingly!! lol)

hi all i'm new to this forum so bare with me
I just signed up to some MS websites grassroots, gapbuster and gfk just wondering how long it will take for jobs to start becomming avaliable to me?

Good luck

Grassroots took a few days to complete sign up, not had any jobs yet. My gapbuster account was verified yesterday have taken a job with them for this weekend. I got my gfk final conformation yesterday and today there were 2 jobs listed in my area. Market force I signed up with last week and they had jobs available straight away and the sign up was instant. In fact they even phoned me last night to ask if I could go do a restaurant for them. They have offered me LOADS of jobs!

Ok, you can do 3 of these jobs in the same wave. They can be done on the same day so no problem there. The reason the fee is a bit more is because they are a pain in the a&£e! You will be in there a while and I really don't like the report either.

With some it takes a day or two for your info to filter through the system.

I'm still waiting for jobs on TNS, Grassroots and GFK (been registered with them 2 weeks and not a job anywhere near my area!) lol! but Market force and Mystery shopper usually have things as soon as you join. but depends on your area!

Also welcome to the board, you will generally get a sensible answer from most on here as long as you have taken the time to read the OP before asking a question. Also please don't ask about tax before looking through previous posts first

Hi folks, I decided to have a look into mystery shopping, so I've been reading through the forum for a couple of days to get a feel for it. I feel as if I know some of you already!

I've now registered with a few MS companies, so I thought I'd introduce myself as I'll doubtless be needing some of your help and advice soon!
