    Yes they had the visits in February, April and then June. So the next wave should have already been released.

    Looking back at last years spreadsheet I didn't do any in August, for me that is very unusual to not do any so maybe they didn't do an August round. Or maybe they are not doing them.

    You lose points if you release a job - I think 2, but I might be wrong.

    You do lose 2 points if you release a job. As far as I am aware their points system appears to be pretty meaningless - that said I have only accumulated a few hundred points, so perhaps I only get visibility of certain jobs. I do very little for them as not attracted to their fees TBH.

    MF points mean nothing, they do not affect job visibility, age, sex and location are the main things that do.

    I submit reports on my phone most of the time, but I can only use my windows phone - it doesn't work as well on my Sony one.

    I got the update yesterday as well. Like it, but can't actually say it's that different to Windows 8. Seems to work well and my shortcuts are all still there, I use Google Chrome and once I'd re-set it as the default browser (it changed to Edge) I just logged in as usual.

    I haven't tried to upgrade yet. I like to wait a while until any teething issues are sorted out first.

    I'll try in a few months time I think after I've read all your comments about it first.

    Not sure what links or shortcuts you need. You go to the website and log in. Unless you have the webpage as a shortcut in which case a google search for the website will find it
