    TNS took a while to get in touch with me.
    They sent me a P46 form to complete and I then got my password by almosr return of post.

    Whilst on the subject of TNS, what are the criteria for mileage payments?
    I have been looking at a potential assisgnment.

    Well firstly if there is no mention you won't get any (unless its a last minute visit) and secondly some people just claim the maximum allowable (only £3 odd) as it all balances out in the end...

    Cheers Darren21, didn't know if you had to submit a mileage amount and then claim a proportion.
    That makes the job even more tempting.

  • TNS - I have a pub one tonight with TNS that I can't do because I am poorly. I have e-mailed my regional controller - is that all I need to do? Will he respond to me or can I assume I just leave it now?

    Thanks

    Could be TNS - if so, you will need to check the website regularly - as the jobs have always gone before you recieve your newsletter. I check several times a day but still never seem to catch any of the jobs that are apparently available in my area.

    TNS login is here but I think you need your field number to login or to get your password.

    I get regular emails from this company so maybe it is a different one that you have been dealing with.

    Also, you need to get your record keeping sorted out as you will need to register as self-employed with the tax office. You have 3 months to sort it out otherwise you get a fine.

    Got an email from TNS turning me down. Doesn't say why, but their loss!! Not having much luck with mystery shopping, it's the second one that doesn't want me!

    That should be fine, they normally would reply at some point but if not there's nothing more you need to do.

    oooh and how did it go ? :)
  • It went ok, but took ages filling in the questionnaire! I hadn't heard anything since I signed up about 6 weeks ago, so it was good to get the job yesterday. Thanks for asking.
