  • Why does BARE keep sending me emails for jobs that aren't anywhere near me?

    Do they just mail EVERYONE un-targeted?

    I got 3 through this morning. 2 of them were exactly the same but sent by different people. :confused:

  • I've just printed out the GAP paperwork for a fried poultry assignment I'm doing at lunchtime and oh .. my .. God ... it is 12 pages long!

    They have changed the format of the paperwork, whereas it used to be 2 columns, it's now only one.

    12 pages and 59 questions for a £3 fee and £4 reimbursement. If I'd known it wasn't a premium assignment I wouldn't've agreed to do it when they phoned me yesterday begging for assistance!

    Oh well, live and learn ......

  • Tractorgirl, when they ring you and beg, suggest to them that you will do it for extra money - they usually cave in and say yes. If you don't suggest it, they will simply rub their hands, pocket their enormous fee and allocate the job to you :p

    Just logged on to Grassroots and this is the message i get -

    Assignments no longer available
    Shows all assignments offered to you in the last 30 days (up to a maximum of 50 records)

    I didn't get an email off them to say an assignment was available, even though they've got my correct email address. I am missing something?


    I dont think anyone has had an email since the new site has been launched. I have missed 8 assignment so far and only picked 2 up. You have to log on everyday to see if any are available.

    I've just sent a message to Grassroots about an assignment I had today - I can't complete my questionnaire until I get an answer.
    Anyone know how long they take to reply?

    I'd call them if it's urgent - from their website: "If you need to contact us urgently, please call 0800 515 832" - office is open 'til 7pm....
