    Has anyone ever heard of or work for Albatross Mystery Shopping. Just found the company whilst browsing internet. Any one had any experience... :think:

    Good company, but if you don't know how to do a detailed report you won't get any work. It's not MF.

    A good company, I agree. But must say that I have come across at least one other MSC that requires even more detailed reports, so I don't consider their requirements all that bad.

    They are similar to AA, want the earth offer to pay large (ish) premiums, you have to deal with a rookie intern who doesn't know wheat she is doing, then they come up with half a**ed excuses not to pay, I'd avoid them they are not worth the hassle.

    That's the point, my reports were spot on, they still found a way to say they weren't acceptable without giving examples.

    They pay on the 25th and 10th or the next working day after those dates, usually hits banks 2-3 days later.

    That's my patch too !!

    ... and heading into mine lol
  • What a great start to the week...waited in for the post, as I was expecting a load of POS that I was due to use from this afternoon. It arrives, and apparently somebody has already opened it and helped themselves to the valuable bits. Guess I'll be doing stupidly long days at the end of the week then :(
