    Those bookies on MF really don't seem to be budging this time round...Maybe people have finally realised its a ridiculous scenario for a pittance.

    Is there any game you can play that costs less than £1 a go? I played the roulette in one last time £1 on red/black managed to keep it going a few turns. Seem pathetic just sitting for 2 goes. I was lucky enough to get a really good fee I would never do them otherwise. I was surprised how much MF offered me to do them.

    You can split your bets on roulette to 20p per chip, corner bet (cover 4 numbers at a time) you won't get rich but if anyone is looking it will look a hell of a lot less suspicious than £1 on red and £1 on black!!

    Such a pullava for not alot...

    I've just had a call begging me to take some, even double fee which was what was offered isn't enough for the hassle.

    Thats what they need to understand. There are about 12-15 in my city and about another 10 in the next city. I've got a nice easy curcuit of chemists on thursday and there's no way im adding them in to it as well.

    On another note.. has anyone used the ESA app yet? how did you find it?

    That's work knowing not that I'm planning on doing any unless they substantially increase the fee but at least 5 times what they are now.

    I haven't done a MF bookies since they made machines part of every assignment. Happy to go in a place a bet but not the rest of the nonsense, might as well have Mystery Shopper tattooed across the forehead.
  • Wow MF coffee service station jobs have had a dive on their fee, they will be down to supermarket fee next week. Goodbye to those jobs, always a lot of hassle for their fee before.

    They never seem to hang around long near me, someone must do a lot of driving up and down the M6!
