  • Has anyone been paid by React today? Usually in on the 26th.
  • Gap money for October visits in the bank. I am pleasantly surprised they paid in time this month.:)

    Bare are getting a bit desperate to shift those pizza jobs - doubled the fee - wonder if that will shift them....
    .

    Big risk of not being paid because you get something small wrong with their photo instructions.

    Actually it seems to me that the photo instructions are impossible to meet. They give you a label to print out and complete which must go in the corner of the box. But there isn't enough room in the corner of the box. So you have it overlapping the pizza a bit. Nothing in the instructions contrary to that. But then they complain that part of the pizza is obscured. I really don't know how it's supposed to work.

    At first there was no fee, then £5 then £10. If they would just give followable instructions for the photo then people wouldn't want such a fee.

    How long are they taking? Is the estimate realistic?

    10 mins tops. They take longer to do the reporting than it does to do the job.

    IMS have also extended the deadline for completion.

    Shouldn't be mentioning the fees but the fee offered is in $ not £

    Are you doing by computer or Android?

    I thought it sounded like a pain to do computer work after - especially as so many visits. As I have an iphone I'll have to email my photos to my computer shop by shop - with the postcode as a title - and do in the evening. Bottle of wine job I think!

    You guys are lucky btw managing to get started - I've had an email (at least I got one this time) saying my box wouldn't arrive today after all - it will be tomorrow. Fingers crossed it's late because they got it sent back and are now putting the rest of the stuff in. If I get it tomorrow and it's half empty I think I'll scream!

    Bless gyp in their desperation. Their system as decided I've been a bad girl and has de-certified me 'for failing a test'. A test I have never taken. So an allocator called me offering to talk me through the test as as I did it, as they don't want me to fail and be permanently disqualified as they are desperate. He was very confused when I said I'd never been given a test to take, let alone to fail.

    Hi guys

    I have been out of the game for a while, but have dipped my toes in the water with the IMS assignments. What is the best website to use to plan the quickest route between jobs? I used to use google maps as you could play around with the locations, but this seems to have changed since I last used it. What do you guys use? BTW great to see this forum still exists and is still as informative as ever:)
