    ESA seen to be personally allocating jobs so far this month rather than putting them on the board.

    Yup, a bit of a break between two big waves of jobs, they are still finishing off the train jobs, apparently there is another new client about to have the jobs loaded.

    Frozen food is down to two monthly and fruity phones won't happen for a while after new phone launch.

    Source - Email from ESA after I chased up payments and asked about other jobs.

    BG, did you carry out any of the ESA frozen food jobs in September? It's just that I'm sure there was a £1 purchase reimbursement, not much I know, but it's not showing on my forthcoming invoice statement.

    Didn't do any as I was on holiday mate, they are usually all inclusive though.

    Oh I don't think they will actually allocate to anyone in particular. That was supposed to have happened for the train jobs but it was for all and sundry to pick up.

    I got one with a completely random name on, so im not sure how they do it
    (I replied and added a proof reading query asking them to confirm who it was for)
    the reply I got had the correction on though but no apology...


    have to love geoverify too...

    I've been called by my surname in a couple of e-mails, but mostly it's my first name.
  • Hi everyone. I am currently working for MF and have done quite a few jobs for them. Now I have the bug, I am looking to increase my workload, but unfortunately I have now done everything on MF in my area. Obviously more go up all the time, but I feel I may have to look elsewhere to get the quantity of work I desire.

    Can someone recommend another site that has a good balance of job volume and fees? I'm not shy about writing long reports if necessary. I know there is a list of companies in the OP, but there are a lot there and I know some have a bad rep, and some recommendations would be good :)

    Thanks in advance.

    99% of those on the op pay more for less work than MF
