    Joined up with GR last week before going away, came back on Monday to find two assignment offers, unfortunately unable to do either of them (shame one was a decent payout) Got an email today for a third one, which I will be doing on Saturday. Not worried that i will be spotted, as it was something I had intended doing this month anyhow, just at a different place.

    Hey ive just done my first job for TNS in a coffee shop. I read the description wrong so thought they paid £7.00 for the visit but that was the budget. When filling in the expenses should I write £7 or should I tell the truth, do they check? I only spent £2.83!

    I normally tell them the truth, as they ask you to send in the receipt!!!!

    On the other hand, I would claim the whole travel allowance.

    In future, make sure you spend the whole £7! I usually buy things you can take home and keep for later. If it's where I think, there are little boxes of chocolate covered coffee beans for £1 if you need to make up the amount ;)

    I really need to get my bum in gear and start doing assignments again, with moving house it sort of fell by the wayside.

    I have my tax return to do and it is very daunting, just been trying to gather all my information. I am thinking of doing it online. The wording on the form does not make it easy to understand

    Has anyone here ever won a survey sweepstake offered by Lightspeed or a prize draw from Valued Opinions? I've been doing them for ages and I am beginning to think it's a myth...

    If it's who I think it is, they don't really mean it! And if it involves a question about bananas, it was THEIR fault (or the client's) - they forgot to include the question on the questionnaire, for a few days! :rolleyes:

    I've won a small prize off Lightspeed in the past. I got to pick which vouchers I wanted from a range of high street and online stores.
    Here I go again on my own....
