    I've just had my two reports queried. "I notice that you didn't make either of your purchases with the exact change. Could you explain why this was please?".

    Are they serious I bought 1 item at £2.99 the other at £4.99. Paying with 3 x £3 pound coins and 1x £5. I don't plan on doing anymore of these visits.

    I'd love to say they will now struggle to fill there jobs but i'm sure some plebs will be delighted that they have been accepted to fulfill such demeaning jobs.

    They have accepted my reports for this wave but next month they will not be accepting any reports even if it involves a penny change. One to avoid me thinks.

    From memory the brief states pay with the exact change, £2.99 is exact change £3 is not.


    Whether we as MSers think it's stupid or a waste of time is irrelevant.

    When did £3 coins go into circulation?

    I'm probably about to get told off for my charity shop visits as well - paid for a £4.99 item with many coins but did need 1p change. Ah well

    Anyone finding they have ESA completed jobs that are sitting around pending payment? Have realised I have two of the phone/online type from June waiting to be paid, a charity one from July and an audit one from August. Not so concerned about that one yet but haven't been given any explanation about the others. Better chase them up.

    I have two back from June pending payment for the phone jobs. I thought they might pay them in the last run as there was a 'stop' put on some of these calls for a brief period and then released as the client had agreed for them to be done. Will have to chase them up..
