Mystery Shopping Thread 25 *PLEASE READ THE OP FIRST**PLEASE NO CLIENT NAMES OR FEES

Did my first job for Insight Retail Consulting back in February, pleasantly surprised to see payment for the job in my account after just 3 weeks.

Their website isn't very informative about the status of submitted jobs or payment though. But seems everything was okay.

How annoying that I can't apply for more assignments with AA until I add a recent full length picture! I haven't really got any that I would share with a mystery shopping company!

You aren't missing much TBH.

Haha that is true, although because I've done lots of shopping centre jobs for them a couple of times, I've done more jobs with them than anybody else

Seems strange asking this since I've done a gazillion of these assignments, but are we allowed to 'go large' at Gap?! I've always stuck with medium to be sure.

No not allowed to. That's one of the factors in shoppers being identified.

Shopper on their own with specific menu items. I heard one member of staff tell another I was a 'possible' recently.

UKIMS pending for Monday. Also, to anyone who did the app visits last year, I've just had a bonus of a few quid for each one. Not sure why as they paid me in full last year. Oh well, mustn't complain. Have fun all

Have you not done any work for them since the app jobs last year? They gave everyone an extra fee to re-submit the results.

What RA say and what they do is not the same, is it?

They don't release the new jobs on Fridays as they promised from the beginning of March onwards but still put the new ones on their job board randomly. I only managed to get one simply because a MS kindly posted on the Alert thread. I found another job which is 2 miles away from where I live when I searched in the Outside of my area job board. On a positive note, they paid everything accurately for all my Febuary assignments.

I am slightly suspicious why AA want now MS's full length pictures. They only asked for such pictures for car jobs in the past. My question would be what are they going to do with them? There is no information regarding confidentiality photo policy in the extended shopper;s profile. How can we be sure the pictire is not going to be passed/shared with anyone/client in case something had gone wrong and the client would like to verify or compare a CCTV image. And then who knows where the photo would end up.

Some companies (from the first page) now require ID photo but I would be careful with this one.
