    However at the end of the mystery shop I wish I could make it known I have just mystery shopped then and especially when I have received very bad service. Perhaps one day.

    I had one of those today.
    When we had finished I had to hand the lad a letter saying I was a mystery shopper.
    His face was a picture, his jaw dropped and he went bright red.
    It was the funniest expression I have ever seen and I am still chuckling about it now.
    He needn't worry though. He was excellent.

    I registered with Retail Eyes, but have not heard anything. Do they email you?

    I've been with Retail Eyes for about a month now and have done 3 different jobs. As I work full time, I just do the ones that fit in with that. So far a free lunch at Subway and £5 for doing it, a lovely meal and drinks for me and my sister at the weekend (up to £15 spend), £5 for doing it, and another meal tomorrow for us both (up to £30 spend), £5 for doing it.

    How I look at it is, OK £5 is probably pittance for typing the report which can take a while sometimes, but hey, I never go out of my way, I do the ones I want, that fit in with my job, my Open University Study and buying my house!
    Grass Roots keep pestering me for Building Society ones, but they are just more hassle than they are worth in my books!

    Although I'm registered with a few sites, I've only done Retail Eyes, I find the staff fab and even when I washed my subway receipt on the first one which was a bit of a disaster, they still gave me my money!

    Hope everyone else is having a positive experience too!

    I have to agree with you Grassroots keep offering me banks and sometimes I find them a real hassle. The last ms was to a LLoyds bank and the Financial Advisor was the most irritating person I have ever across.

    You log onto their web site and search for assignments in your area. You have to find the assignments, they dont offer them to you like grass roots.

    I have tried to log in, but I enter my id & password and the same page just re-appears. I tried to register again, but it says my e-mail addy is already registered.
    Help, what am I doing wrong.
    I have checked my old emails & don't appear to have anything from them.

    *yes I am a dimwit*

    It doesn't seem to want to know.
    Even if I put random letters into the log in bit, it still returns me to the same page.
    I tried the problems bit and that just tells me about the setting and using Explorer.
    Hmmmmm think i may phone them on monday.

    I've been with Retail Eyes for about a month now and have done 3 different jobs.

    Don't mention the shop names and the fees!

    It's against the confidentiality agreement you made with the company when you signed up, and they take a very dim view of people posting clients and fees on bulletin boards.
    Here I go again on my own....
