    Once for giving a store a poor toilet score and was accused of not even visiting. Which I did. Banned from store only. Then secondly that my timings didn't match with the stores. And thirdly was accused of being with a group of friends, I wasn't just happened to walk in with a group of people. I didn't even sit near them either. Crazy bonuses for managers have ruined the program.

    I would say I've had my last 5-6 reports queried, primarily for timings. They clearly are looking for reasons to trim MS'ers, I agree with the whole manager bonuses but also some of the visits were spot on. In and out within 2 minutes serving time.

    I'm fighting these mo fo's all the way, I need my premiums!!
    Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk

    Makes you wonder why they bother paying for Mystery Shoppers when they clearly don't take it seriously! I'm half scared of even trying a fastfood one.

    Can someone direct me to the FF website? I don't think I'm signed up with them, whoever they are.

    AA paid up remarkably promptly when I complained the manager! Never shopping with them EVER again.


    If you have issues with AAs pay, dont even bother with FF.

    does anyone else go in the clothes store and struggle to find something they like or need and feel its worth the money..
    not sure if I have too many clothes or I am getting too old lol
  • Someone else mentioned this a few pages back, so I went and checked my pay statements. Sure enough, the expenses incurred in doing the "Fast supermarket" jobs (limited to £3) have not been paid on several of my jobs, despite my claiming them !! Suggest you all check !!

    Me too! I just end up buying socks or knickers just for the sake of buying something and now my sock and knicker drawers are crammed full :o

    I'm fussy with fabrics and prefer items made of natural fabrics but everything seems to be man made these days. I get prickly heat rash and synthetic fabrics make it worse.
    Here I go again on my own....

    I have to ask..... has anyone had anything unusual happen in the GFK banks? I always look at the last question and wonder if anyone has been caught up in a robbery or something? lol
