    OK, I accepted an email shop this evening for GFK and I CANNOT seem to get the questionnaire right. Now I'm not stupid and I've thoroughly read the brief that was available to me at this stage and the cover sheet, but something is not right but I can't place it. I've been sat here for over 30 mins changing things and NOTHING seems to be right. I need to do it this evening and I thought it would be easy! Can anyone help please?

    The, what would invalidate the assignment is C if that helps. I think that's the one that stumped me first time I took the test this evening. Can't remember much else to stumble over though.

    Now another query- I've selected a shop for a non-customer, but when I go to the web form they've specified you have to give a policy number- is that my VIN? The instructions for this are less than clear IMHO!

    I'm surprised, they seem to have way more outlets than I knew about.
    Are you (or anyone else...) doing the GFK bike shop visits? Purchase included in small fee, nah dont think so.....

    Straightforward enough jobs, not particularly worth going out of your way for, but they're by no means hard work. I strung a few in with a day of other stuff and had a reasonably profitable day.

    10mm 3/8" sockets are bang on the spend as well, and you can never have enough of those.
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    GfK's two day windows for jobs is a pain when you are trying to put a little group of visits together.

    The VIN is not to be used, that's the MS visit reference.

    Yeah, realised that. Whoever is allocating this work isn't paying attention. They've allocated me a job for a non-customer which requires a policy number. Doh!
