  • I got an e-mail for two potential mystery shopping job, but unfortunately, after following the instructions I don't think I got the job in the end...I didn;t know that it would be a first come first served basis...Well I hope there would be some more pportunities as I have missed the opportunity in earning a nice £20 sum.

    :( keep applying sheng to all the companies and you will get something eventually

    keep checking the sites at least once a day :)
  • I've a question about Grassroots payments. I've got a £30 credit in my account from them this morning. How can I find out which assignments they've paid me for and which ones they haven't yet? I've done 9 assignments with them so far all at £10 each and did them 2 a day (apart from a day when I did one, obviously!)

    Do they send an email detailing it? I can't log into the website, it just keeps bringing up my application details. Is that normal?

    Thanks :)

  • This is really frustrating, isn't it! No, they don't send emails. They told me they would tell me over the phone if I rang them.

    In fact I have worked out they just pay the oldest first, and so far (about 4 months in) this system seems to work.

    Now THERE's a thought - I can send a copy of a formatted Excel sheet showing how I keep records if anyone is interested - but I'm sure it can be improved - do we want to have a record swapping session? (Just the format, without showing which jobs we've done).

    after a few weeks Mystery Shopping, I can safely say I prefer Grassroots! They just rung me up again asking me to a MS 20 miles away and are paying my travel expences, more than I thought they would too! I like the assignments they send me, eventhough most of the assignments I get are from them calling me to ask me to do one the next day!

    They also paid me twice, whereas I'm still waiting for money from some MS companies! And none of their assignments have included a spend yet!
