It kept losing my work on one report last week even though I saved it constantly.

Mr._Bigglesworth

MS Cos, is that a new one or just short hand for MS companies?

I've signed up for a new company as used to do a lot for aba-i and gap but they seem to be getting less work.

Anyway I shopped a "premium retail" on saturday and completed the survey afterwards on their app. On Sunday the web site had my payment status as green which I thought odd as I hadn't returned their item yet.

Returned the item via 1pm delivery as per instructions and my status has now went red and "on hold". Not heard anything from said company except emails offering more jobs in the area and a phone call offering audio work.

How long will it take for my status to go green again? The companies name is 3 letters that I'd usually associate with claiming benefits.

Sorry no idea!
Jobs are not dealt with in date order. I have had some pending for over a fortnight.
They always payout on the 10th of the month.:D

GlasweJen

thanks, I've emailed them and asked if it's standard or if there's been a problem. The only thing I didn't do to brief was post the next day but since the next day was a Sunday and there are no post offices open I didn't think that would be an issue.

I have found them ok to work for. I'm sure it will be fine:)

GlasweJen

they said it's because they're changing the fee to reflect the cost of posting the item back.

Ah ESA, it is usually safe to mention the shopping company. Normal practice for them when there is any reimbursement to add. Cut off for payment is the 1st of the month (to pay on the 10th) and it is very rare for them not to have everything sorted then.

Does anyone know of any company's that have work in Budapest Hungary, please? My son and his girlfriend want to shop whilst they are at university there.
