    I might start doing that too the, thought had crossed my mind before all this happened as a memory aide!

    AA flatly refuse to give me the name of a more superior person to complain to. I have submitted complaint to MRA, but will try trading standards when I have time. I run my own business anyway, so am used to late payments, sending out payment demands etc. Just wondering whether small claims is worth it over a few pounds?
    You have nothing at all to loose by giving them 14 days to agree payment or you will file throught the small claims court (also include looses, interest etc) It could just kick them enough to pay up.

    Slightly regretting my 'sure, I'll take as much as you want to give me' to a certain US based company. I have loooooong lists, and long days ahead of me. Smile and think of the money. Well, that and the fact that alcohol is a permissable purchase.

    Would it be ok to ask the initials of the companies people MS for? After my experience, I want to make sure I'm only signed up with reputable ones and also that I haven't missed any.

    ABA
    MF
    GR
    B*RE
    ESA
    MS
    RA
    GFK
    GB
    REACT
    Q
    TNS

    I'm registerred with a fair few, but in practice, I only really shop for:

    DS
    GFK
    GRG
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    I've just done a collection of jobs for RA go to fill in the 20 jobs that are grouped together and find it will only let me fill in the details for one. I have emailed them this evening but am unsure of what to do now, worried that I won't get paid for them as the data will not get entered until tomorrow. Has anyone else done a group like this for pain relief places and knows the solution?

    Tern and Performance in People are fine.

    JKS are another MSC. I've not done anything for them but best to register with as many decent ones as possible.

    Catalyst are based in Ireland but have a couple of clients in the UK, sometimes a bit slow to pay but not had any problems with them myself.

    Is anything surrounded by a red box? RA have been OK with me in the past give them a call in the morning. You must have quite a collection of painkillers.

    I'm sure you'll be OK. Although they have a rep for poor paying jobs I've found the ladies at RA to be good to deal with.
