And, talking of shrinking fees............have you noticed the carrier bag 5p charge is included in the fee for your lunchtime sarnie and hot drink, tomorrow (Saturday)? Made me smile!

Has anyone been paid by Bare international yet?

Also considering doing a few ms for Helion, they advertise a lot in my area, nobody takes them, do they offer premiums? Is their pay random like Gap?

I wouldn't know about Gap.

Helion I've just started with and done a couple for, but not had any feedback. One is a two parter which I'm waiting for the approval to do the second half, not sure they will want me to continue but I put in so much prep I really need to do another of the same type to get my time back.

How long does checking your reports take with them?

I have only done computer audits for them and hardware enquiries and found in these cases, it can be 4/5 days before they 'mark' your report. Not particulalrly keen on Helion as the pre-work takes ages with all the training guides/tests you end up doing and unless you are going to do a circuit of sites, the effort for me out weighs the fees.

You apply for an assignment , it gets 2 days before the end date and it's still not assigned so you delete your application to then receive an email saying urgent jobs in your area.... Really I applied 5 days ago.

I did a visit which required a refund, when I returned for the refund I was told to come back in 30 minutes as the manager was not there.
I was not able to as I had to be somewhere.
I rang the company no that's fine I'm make a note don't take it back it will look suspicious a second time.
just had an email why did I not return 30 minutes later? the report may not get used?? !!!!!!. I reported exactly what happened

Always get them to put stuff like that in an email mate saves so much bother.

Can't believe how long Market Force takes to pay its shoppers! :mad:

It's the 29th now and was expecting to see a payment from them today in my bank account, but nope! Absolutely nothing. They're always the same and it's beginning to really put me off working for them.

I really don't understand how or why they take so long to pay people.

GfK pays dead on the 10th and 25th of each month without fail.
ESA always pays on the 10th of each month without fail.
TNS always pays on the 28th without fail.

Market Force pays, well, um, whenever they bloomin' like.

Yes, I'm somewhat annoyed too. Can anyone see it pending for tomorrow? I'm also waiting for React. If anyone can see anything at all pending could they let us know please?
