I know some on here like them, but to be honest I would not do these jobs for the fee GFK paid so no chance of me doing them for the fee DS pay. I have saved them a job and removed myself from their list.

TBH, they pay the same fee as the current TNS shops, but with a report that is sooooooo much easier to complete than the TNS one.

I responded to their e-mail and picked up a couple of jobs with an increased fee. I appreciate they're not everyone's cup of tea but I find them spot on.

Just a vent really. Carried out a mystery shop with the american burger company with a big red letter symbol but payment was denied.

They said I left the premises after I bought my breakfast meal and said CCTV proved this! They obviously have the wrong person because I sat down for over 15 minutes dutifully eating my breakfast meal. I tried explaining to them that it could not possibly have been me but no replies nor apologies to my emails.

So, no longer wish to work for a company that blatantly call you a liar.

Are they allowed to use CCTV footage like that?

I know a manager in one store and he told me they do what they can to avoid a bad or not 100% report as its bonus based and affects them a lot. He actually joined gap himself and was doing the reports!!
tell gap to shove it why accept pittance and bve accused of lying

I saw that.. How do they know that I've read it? Dont call me 'team' and then threaten to remove me!

Anyway, does anyone know if they have anything bar the phones?

Come on. Get it right. :p He called us "team team".

They have had travel agents, a sound system shop and something else recently but I am quite new to them.

Did anyone do the APP visits for UKIMS? If so, have you been paid in full or not? I was expecting over a ton and they have only given me either the fees or the reimbursements. Can't be bothered working it right now though.

You can see payments per Job on Ims site
Does it match there with what you got ?

9 phone visits done today, inc one they begged me to do this morning as ta bonus prob as someone dropped over the weekend again.

just the reports to look forward to again. oh well, only another 4 weeks of them to go...

I did one of them today. I got there about 4PM. Two staff sat at the counter chatting. I do the bits I have to do as I enter and then go for help to discuss what I need. He tells me about one plan without asking any questions and then refers me to go online. :rotfl:

No, they never showed the reimbursement. Must harrass them tomorrow.

Thanks for your reply.
