    I've been with then for 2.5 years done a hotel, clothes shop, restaurants. It's really hard to pick up jobs as i only seem to see cancellations. I've emailed them

    Now I remember why I stopped doing AA clothing department visits, long winded or what.
    I can't resist when they add a bonus

    People. I still get MF's emails I had 32 today, all food jobs, people are reluctant to take them.

    Have had a read through this thread but couldn't see this mentioned. Most of the jobs on my MF shop list do not have dates showing until you click though to apply for the assignment. Its been like this for a few weeks now - assume its the same for everyone else. It's strange as some appear with the dates available up-front.

    Learn from the mistakes of others - you won't live long enough to make them all yourself.

    I emailed them to complain and they said it is a new "client requirement."

    I get the odd cancellation email from MF. I think sometimes the jobs encourage me to spend money as the reimbursements don't seem to cover the purchases and they haven't risen but the cost of the items have.

    Yes - it went a bit quiet and now they have popped up elsewhere. Not much left for GR apart from phone shops from what I can see.

    I did a catalogue shop one for GR last week. Purchase and return with a guarantee product. I thought it would be awkward at the return stage but they were fine.
  • Hello all!
    I have been a shopper for a couple of years and just use Market Force and Gap Busters.

    Can anyone recommend another good company please?
