RA are phoning me daily about the same job, I keep giving them the same response- pay me 45p per mile plus the shop fee and I'll do it for you. They can't put the phone down fast enough. Today they told me I'm self-employed so it's my responsibility to pay for the wear and tear on my vehicle, all they will give me is 24p per mile. No wonder no-one will take their jobs, their pay is an absolute pittance. I'm not doing their work at my own expense!!!! All their jobs round here just sit on their website, I think people are getting wiser.

So true, around here, their jobs just sit there with no takers. I once got offered 20p per mile but only one way, they wouldn't pay for the return journey; absolute joke.

They phoned me 3 or 4 times a day so I have set all my phone numbers to 00000000000 - that stopped it!!

I was sick to death of them phoning and not being willing to give any increases at all

I see, for Feb's wave, you now have to apply for the TNS phone jobs now.

At least this will prevent the annoying e-mails asking/telling you to change your visit date.

It'll pretty much prevent me doing any of them. I only pick them up when I'm out and about. have time on my hands, and spy a phone shop that might want shopping.

I've had no luck this time round with these jobs, the App just didn't work. At least last time round it worked 2 out of 3 times.

Didn't work till now for me had an update and the new login and then works fine

There are also some jobs that have details for non Android smart phones that can work via browser
You can try that method too if wanted

Just tried again to do the shop. Ended up taking a photo and coming home to report straight to Sassie. 1 hour of my life I won't get back...

I did - 18 times! :rotfl:

I sent back a polite email and got a reply from Janet saying they did not have a clue what was going on - some kind of glitch on their system. Anyway it stopped now.

I am slightly annoyed with GFK - they did not pay the exact amount for all the postage, packing & return of the product for the tv channel job.
