    RM and RA are getting very very desperate. Just had 4 emails for the same job 30 mins apart. All they have to do is send it once! And RA have sent the "we have this kind of visit in your area, so log on quick" for each of their clients about 5 times today. Anyone else been getting them all? Is there any way of stopping these emails? I can't block RM as they won't be able to send me briefs and details of visits I have accepted.

    PS. Since when are Cumbria and Newcastle in my area of Yorkshire? RA need geography lessons me thinks!

    I'm not getting the e-mails but I get regular calls from RA, asking me to do jobs but with no premium increase..........no thanks ;)

    Depends which numpty you get on the phone. I phoned up the other day and asked for something towards travel for a pharmacy, he said no. Phoned back an hour later, lovely lady put on a few £. It was cheeky of me as I live about 5 minutes away from the pharmacy, but as Lisa off of React (did she ever come back? I miss her, she was the best allocator EVER!) said "if you don't ask, you don't get"!. :D:D:D

    I don't have a login either. I joined in the last 3 weeks and got the email saying they would be in contact via phone or email.

    Blimey RM must be reading this board or getting desperate - they sent me a login today!

    Signed up to do one next week - nice convenience shop, bit different from phone shops and fashion retailers that I keep doing!

    :) I clearly need to improve my sweet talking skills ;)
  • I've had an email with login details for RM today no visits in my area yet though.:( I know there's loads of those shops nearby they were phoning me constantly when I first signed up in August.

    RA have phoned me a few times the last two weeks but unless they start offering better fees I won't be doing much work for them. They phoned asking why I was declining visits in the South West of England when I live in West Wales.

    There's a blip in there system a pharmacy less than a mile from my house was not showing on my local visits page. I only saw it when I clicked on visits available outside my area. Yet it shows Pharmacy's in Devon and Cornwall :mad:

    Just booked a ton for a certain shopping centre (am I allowed to say that?) Going to be a busy day and there are still a lot left but I don't want to book too many and end up getting in a muddle.

    Thanks about GR, i'll send them an email :)

    We all do it sometimes. The game is how many times can you dodge the guy selling the TV channels gaze until it's his turn? :rotfl:
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    When you get some of these companies on the phone they bleat on about it being urgent etc, well if they needed it done they should have offered a half decent fee in the first place.
  • Talking of RM logins... mine appears to have stopped working in the last hour. It's telling me that the email and passwork combination is not recognised. It worked earlier today though, because I booked some visits. Is it just me?

    There was one RM job on their web site that was in the next village to mine, they had it at over 120 miles from me.

    Double checked their web site and managed to find another 2 like this :cool: picked up 5 jobs all in all :)
