    The same shopper HAD to do the multiple locations on the two hospitals I did.

    Same client? I thought it was another company.

    Used to love doing the x 8 locations in 1 go. Such fun.

    React are now doing the separate shops but I did some of the restaurants for the previous MS agency which are now showing on RE/MF. I'm not seeing all the separate shops but the others are definitely there.

    What's the big fascination with RE/MF? Sure their overall fees might be cheaper for said company but surely companies should be put off given then a lot of RE/MF clients have not gone down the drain?

    I've recently completed 2 jobs for Assosia. How can I find out when they are due to be paid? When I log in to the "dashboard", I can't find anything about the payment or the jobs. Thanks.

    Normally about 4-5 weeks. They email you to let you know when payment will be hitting the bank.
    Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk

    Normally the middle of the next month, sometimes the month after. You'll get an email when it's happening. They don't really use the dashboard for much.
    Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
    Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?

    I've stayed at both Premier Inns and the Holiday Inn Express all have been clean, comfortable and have decent grub not far away.

    I spent 8 years working away from home, so if anyone ever wants a tip on cheap, decent, digs, just shout.

    If I dont know, then https://www.smoothhound.co.uk is your friend.

    Whenever I've been m/sing in the area, I've always stayed at the Hull West Premier Inn at Hessle, hear the bridge, but I've always been able to book in advance and got the saver rate, around £29. Bit pricey otherwise.
    I've also mystery shopped the Holiday Inn at the Marina, that is even nicer but more expensive, wouldn't pay those rates if I was not getting it paid for me.

    Gap: "Payment for all assignments completed in February will be processed latest by 2nd April 2014"
