  • Hi everyone,

    I've been doing quite a bit more video shops now - I think i've finally got the hang of it :) Can anyone recommend the best companies to go with that do a fair bit of video stuff? I'm signed up with a couple of companies, but I think I'm hoping to make it more of a regular thing now I know how to use the equipment :D

    Thanks

    There is a list of companies on the first page, most do video and report only visits.

    Apart from the 20 pages of petrol stations and 10 pages of cat shops that were there when I posted to the alerts thread you mean?

    Depends where you are in the country. All the ABAi ones at the moment are miles from here but we had a round earlier in the month. Never seen any "cat shops" though. Are they video ones or do you need to ask them to be added to your home page?

    Personally, I don't see the benefit of the bu13.

    Wasn't it 720p (kinda HD) mind I'm not sure what advantage that is above the BU-18 which is perfectly good for video shopping work.

    The OP says
    Abai don't appear to have anything, anywhere
    there was. There may not have been anything close but there is still plenty there.

    Cat shops are report only, ask them to add the client to your account.

    SCAM ALERT- MYSTERY SHOPPER INC.
    have received emails offering mystery shopper assignments (£200 per assignment) when I showed interest they offered an assignment assessing Western Union. Of course to assess their services I would have to transfer funds to them so needed to give my bank details to Mystery Shopper Inc which would reimburse the funds and add the £200 payment to my bank account. Needless to say, I will not be accepting any assignments from them!!!

    Thanks for posting, always worth reminding anyone new to the forum. Whilst most people will recognize it as a scam there are people who do respond to such emails, indeed they would not be sent out by the scammers if no one ever responded to them.

    Shop angels are looking for a shopper in Aberdeen

    They only have 1 client in the uk being an australian company, but nice reimbursement, easy reports and I can usually wangle a nice fee on top to get stores covered, aberdeen just a little to far for me to cover though
    if interested apply:

    Hi all,
    I have recently signed up to the GAP service and have completed a few of the client specific certification tests. I failed one of them on a question and just wanted to know if I am forever forbidden to complete mystery shops with that specific company? Or is there a time limit on your restriction so you can complete the test again?
    Thank you :)
