Hi

I've just started mystery shopping again, did it a few years ago for a little while.

I've done one shop earlier this month, got three booked in for next week and one the week after. Probably seems like nothing to some of you but i'm quite pleased with it.

I've registered with around 15 companies, I think I got turned down for one, can't remember which. Never mind though.

Looking forward to doing lots more shops, thanks for this thread, it's very useful

Stuff what anyone else thinks about how many jobs you do, welcome back to the game.

i'm having a bit of a shocker - I suspect some of the bonussed last minute jobs Big G has picked up were from me. I keep having workmen cancel and then show up late. Hopefully all sorted now. Except for the making money to pay them part. That's still a big problem.

That and new recruits not hacking it.

I'm having a shocker -- must have picked up a job during the week whilst I was out and about, but I've got no recollection of it and all I wrote in my diary was "after work £14+miles"

Can't find it on any site or in my emails. Oops. How professional!

If you're considering starting shopping or writing about it, can I be the first to suggest getting some additional tuition on your written skills before you go any further?

We're not considering either of those things. I didn't realise we had to write so formally on this forum, apologies.

Please only reply if you would like to help us, thanks.

Hi Lottie

May be add why and what it will be used for, to get more of a response

Oh thank you, that seems obvious now you say it!
We are doing a graphic design project, we only need to ask someone about MSing. To be honest it's only to find out something we couldn't by just googling the subject, so we need first-hand accounts from an experienced mystery shopper.
There would be no filming or anything, we only want to talk to them about their experience to gain a greater understanding of the whole profession.

I agree with BG, some on here do this f/t and do well from it. Others (like me) pick up a few bits of work to help with salary freezes and rising utility bills :mad:

I only do 5-6 jobs in an average week. Climbing to 15+ on a busy one. Thats plenty to fit around f/t work.

Is MF (Uk) dead? I've been trying to get in using phone all afternoon, and can't access via laptop either.
