Anyone know what RA are like for closed shops? Went to do an electrical one today and sign in the window saying it had closed for good. Phoned them up and have emailed photos as they asked but not sure if ill get paid anything or not. Was doing other shops there so luckily not a wasted journey but would quite like something for it.

Hi everyone, must admit I joined GR and soon left after not receiving 1 job offer. Currently picking up plenty of jobs with 3 other companies.

Quick question though, I logged onto MF yesterday and, rather oddly, I noticed that I'd had 2 points deducted for releasing a job. I can very much guarantee that I did not release the job. Have tried to call them and sent two e-mails, no answer as yet. Was just wondering if this had happened to anyone else in the past?

I wouldn't worry about it - the points don't mean anything.

I have been paid a reduced fee for a closed down store. They also once they paid me the full fee and asked me to go back when the refurbishment was complete.

I have some times when I have lots of jobs for GR and other times when there's nothing for a while. They're a good company to work for IMO

They changed a lot of the rotation so you don't get to do the same stoes as offen.

Had a reply from them saying its been removed from my homepage and put on the payment list so maybe I'll get full fee. But will get something anyway

GRG have always been pretty sleepy, all I've seen is on there is banks, supermarkets, holidays and sofas.

None of them are bad jobs, though you really need an account with the bank to do them, fees aren't great, but they're about the going rate for little jobs. Because they email as soon as jobs go on, they normally get snapped up quite fast.

It's worth leaving them on your list and giving them a few postcodes that aren't too far away in case they throw something out that you fancy.

My friend's dh goes to a bookies about 4 times a week. They were MS'd the other day and the manager got a written warning because one ONE betting slip that was found on the floor! How bloody petty is that?

I managed to find a set of briefing notes for another branch in the area and sent him the link for his interest.

If you do a bookies if you just see one betting slip, don't bother mentioning it as people are getting warnings.
