    Thing is, it wasn't a fast food place. :confused: I had 2 corner shop-type ones, and another one that I'd always had to produce a receipt for before (the place where Pat works ;)), so don't know what's going on.

    :o

    I had one of these refused as I had spent 3p less than i shoudl have done (my bad maths at the counter)

    When you click on my assignments there should be a highlighted link showing submit receipt - I alwasy fax mine as my scanned receipt seems to large for them??

    Got my first MS with TNS next week, a slap up meal - YUMMY.
    I wanted a nice easy one to begin with and this seems idea.
    They also have a few overnight hotel stays, bit out of my league for now.

    I cut my MS teeth on a banking mystery shop was dead nervous before I went in almost never went in but I did and I lived to tell the tale!

    Got rejected from TNS! Ho hum

    BUT have some good ones coming up this week with Retail eyes - two pub meals - YIPPEEE!!!!!

    Do people find it is easier in a big city to get MS jobs?

    :eek: I spent a few pennies less than the amount they said, although I'm sure they didn't say it was supposed to be a minimum of £x, just that you'd get reimbursed £x. :confused:

    (It was the shop's fault anyway for not having clear SELs :cool:)

    I always have to fiddle with my scanned receipts as they're always too big. You can make them smaller though, and they'll got through as long as it's under 300 KB or something.

    And how do you know if your shop was rejected? Do they email you? :confused:

    Anyway, I don't see a link anywhere to say I need to submit a receipt, so I guess everything is fine. :)

    Can anyone help? When describing a member of staff who is chinese/japanese/korea what is the correct term? Is Oriental a no no these days?? I get confused because I have lived in the UK and Australia and the terms change!
