I noticed ESA dropped fees for their golden jobs. I would rather do another TNS phone job instead of waiting for ESA's call to be told that I am the chosen one in order to receive and proceed.0

Not sure what the fee was previously but what an old faff for current fee. I keep being offerered similar jobs from another company and they are paying just over 3 times what ESA are paying. It seems ESA only put up their 'cr*p' jobs up on the public sites and better off doing their projects when they come up. Similar to the way RA seem to operate.0 -
*Sam* not MF with a French theme, there seems to be no space for nuance or anywhere to make an aside or query.0

Answer : No

Query Note : As you have selected 'No', please simply state why you do not feel the service was exceptional.
Guess who lol
They mean exceptional in terms of did anyone exceed your expectations, not was anyone better than anyone else. I think they're asking for your input as a retail consultant, as to suggestions of what they could have done to impress you.
But if it's them, Minimal Fee, Minimal Feedback, Minimal F's given.Yes it's overwhelming, but what else can we do?
Get jobs in offices and wake up for the morning commute?0 -
I was very intrigued by Anthonys blog regarding a free lunch, so would like to try becoming a mystery shopper. I completed the form and was successful. However the email I received asked for my bank details to be uploaded to my profile, I realise this is necessary to be paid but still a little sceptical. Can anybody assure me. thanks0

If the company is listed at the beginning of this thread where it lists legitimate mystery shopping companies, then I'm afraid that entering your bank details on your profile is the only way you're going to get paid. Unless they offer paypal payments. Not many do.0

This is a normal request - they sometimes ask for your NI number as well as they will at some point confirm to the tax authorities who is working for them on a self employed basis. The blog failed to point out that you need to register with the tax authorities, so would advise you to do so. Good Luck.0 -
It's also not a free lunch. You have to report on it, pay for it up front and if anything goes pear-shaped you might not get paid.
TNS and RA showing in the bank for tomorrow.0 -
certainly not a free lunch, and hard work.
question why did you not order other stuff on 2 reports (because I don't want to have to pay for it as the fee is so pitiful) obviously didn't put this in but isn't it obvious if you are a MS you want to reimbursed.0
