    I am finding it a little quiet this month but I don't mind as I have chose only to do the merchandising as I am winding down ready for my holiday to Mexico :)

    Thank you so much to the love who dropped all the RA station shops in Leeds. Now drop the shirt shop, I have my name all over it. LOL.

    There is a nice little RA restaurant in Manchester at the train station if anyone wants to swipe it. Decent reimbursement too, puts RE to shame!

    I missed them for the Liverpool one. Oh poop. Will have to see if anyone drops them now. would have fitted in nicely tomorrow.

    I'm amazed each time that they come up that we're only allowed 3 Railway Visits on RA. I always end up getting a phonecall asking me to do more, so why not allow us to choose more from the start?

    I think they reduced the amount, same with town centre calls, as maybe too many people letting them down after taking a bunch. When I first started dong the town centre ones, you could take on 8.

    Who knows, keep your eyes peeled. Someone might ditch them all and you can pick what you like.

    Out of interest, what are the town centre visits? I have never seen those?

    I'm having a very quiet month and it's not good!

    The difficulty in expressing results is often down to mis-coding the form. So it is trial and error until you find the answer the system will accept, then explain in the 'Comments' field the error.

    A favourite for me is the refusal to accept that a city centre site has no car park, so I have to say it was OK, then explanation the site doesn't have one. Unless you complete the form, the chances of getting paid is nil - so work round it to ensure all the red 'errors' are dealt with.

    I agree it is unsatisfactory, but after a year, they still do not correct/modify data for sites to make it easier to complete.

    Town centre are just go into to shop, look around, ask a question, then leave. Nice and simple and the input doesn't take too long! I do the Liverpool visits, but not sure if there are any other towns on the list.
  • Has anyone else noticed the bank jobs on GfK not appearing this month, or is it just my area?
  • Has anyone had their pending payments on GRG changed to paid. Usually happens 1st working day of the month. Mine are from beginning of Sept, so was hoping it would be in the bank later this week!

    The bank jobs are being loaded on right now. I can see 3.

    Not yet lovey. It might take a few more days? Not sure. I have 3 still pending.
    [/STRIKE] Just checked again, 1 of them has changed from PAYMENT PENDING to PAYMENT MADE TODAY.

    Predictably - one appeared just after I posted ;) but it's still just the one showing and it's miles away from me :(
