    I suspect those ones are now video.

    The were put on hold after some in store issues not seen anything since.

    In recent weeks I have seen from GR phones, a departmental store (which looked a right faff, order it on line, pick it up, try it on and then return it) and the Green supermarket queues. Never really been a big earner for me I afraid - lucky to get one job a month
  • I've had a couple of phone ones (query only) and I think I did a foreign exchange and also a travel agent through them if I recall correctly. Only other thing I've seen is a fairly posh department store (remote location) and a couple of times I've seen a catalogue store.
  • You have to be on permanent email alert and it is just not possible if you are working etc. I don't want to do phone shop visits anymore and there are only ever 1 or 2 to pick up.
  • I did a phone shop for GR today, and it doubled up as a visit for MSL as well. Scenarios were similar enough, though one was more focussed on an operating system, but I was still able to do the GR query and then just focus on the OS within that query too.
  • Grassroots don't do video. Instead, if their client wants video it gets subcontracted. Quite a few companies do this.

    They are owned by WPP, I've no doubt one of their sister companies completes the video work.

    I had mine booked this week. I had a call from MF yesterday - the client wanted to cancel it. At least MF should have written to you - very naughty.

    I was on my way and went to double check the notes. Glad I did
