The other company has already started moving into the electrical shops down my way, didn't waste time after the merger was announced but can't blame them tbh

well thats one phone company that wont be doing any more ms shopping for a while

despite the monthly pleas to get the jobs covered for 1/2 the cost of the previous company
its seems they (the phone retailer not the ms company) have gone in to administration tonight, as the only remaining network that would work with them has decided not to renew their contract which expires september NEXT year, but if they are unable to sell any networks (the others have dropped off slowly over the past 12-24 months) they have no product

shouldnt affect payments to shoppers as the ms company should pay out regardless and take the hit....but it may well delay them
especially as all stores will be closed tomorrow, so if you have any scheduled either for their MS company or as a competitor visit you may want to reschedule your plans...
was going to post a link to news story but then thought of the title of thread, so just google it if you dont know,
and no its not the current tns client

I was about to link and then realised I couldn't but is going to be an issue for DS - am wondering what will happen to the phone company.

How long do you all usually wait before you return an item following a job if it is not part of the brief but is not forbidden to do so?

30 minutes, if not going to be in that area in the next week or so.

I did a toy store visit earlier this year, the next the store had closed due tobankruptcy. A shame as I like that job. Still got paid, no problems. And a month later the store re-opened under new management - but is still shopped as it is a franchise store.
Still must be a bit of a hit to DS though, as well as those phone workers...

Worth having a look on PiP, fees increased on several clients.

Has anyone else had a really busy start to the month and then found its tailing off in the middle of the month?:o

I wish I had been doing that this month! I have a boot full of goodies to go back this week and it might take half the day

Abai and Albatross have kept me on my toes, but it's tailed off now. But having sacked React, TNS and RA not surprising, but I feel positively liberated.
