  • Has anyone joined this facebook group? I have a facebook account but I don't use it very much so I wondered if it was worth my while. I'd be grateful for any feedback. It's a mystery shopping group and there are over 1000 people in it. Thanks

    Yep - I am a member of it and quite an active group, who share their moans, groans, tips etc. MS companies are on it, so you have to be more cautious on what you say as you can't hide behind the annonmonity of a Avatar as you can do on this site. I found it quite useful, as if you have a problem or a issue, somebody comes along quite quickly with a recommendation/answer.

    I'm sure some companies think we're daft. Do they really think that we won't notice that although they've increased the fee on small convenience stores, they've also reduced the reimbursement to cover it?!

  • Hi sorry if off topic
    Did my first ms yesterday for market force and seemed straight forward so logged on to get more assignments and now theres none showing.... I live central London and there was 30 plus after I completed my first all I'm getting is assignment in Cornwall and other far places
    Is this because I can only do one brand then they disappear?

    No, you can only do one job at a time, the first job will need proof reading then you'll get to do more, it doesn't last long.
  • Ah thanks Graeme.
    Think they just proof read as I got very strange question about staff member

    A bad day turned good at the end.

    It started with mobiaudit, first time in using, tried to download to my windows phone - not compatible it said so downloaded to my Samsung back up phone, all great and left with all other assignments paperwork, feeling organised I start my day.
    As its Friday was using trains and buses which all planned out well. Felt pleased with myself for planning my first full day.

    Then it all went wrong, my first bus to get me to my train never came, missed my train and there were rail disruptions on Friday so ended up at my first assignment over an hour late.
    Turned on my mobiaudit on my Samsung, it just will not now connect, by now getting close to panic, got out my now temperamental windows 10 tablet, managed to login to free wi fi and download app, good to go again, but a small tablet loses battery quick so knew I needed to get a move on, thank fully mobi audit easy to use, but then the temperamental tablet wont take the photo, camera drivers just not there, so took photos with phone but not able to upload to mobi audit and everything getting very messy now!
    By now I am 2 hours over my allotted time for my own planning, rushed to do my other straightforward visits and head home, arrive with 10 minutes to spare before next job, drive an hour in peak Friday traffic and then.... had the best Ms job I have done so far, thoroughly enjoyed it and got home at 10 pm, it was not dining and hard work, got into bed very late and realised I had gone from omg I can't do this panic to loving my last assignment in the space of 15 hours. Please tell me everyone has one of these days

    Thank you Larac. I might join it and see how I go. I guess the more information and/or tips and advice you can get the better. I'm just not a regular facebook user so not sure if I'll be checking it that often.
