Thanks so so much for the feedback on ISC, am keen to work for them as they seem to have a few jobs by me but I hate PayPal.

I've done 2 pastry shops now and full reimbursement has been granted. From what I gathered, you ask for a savoury, wait to see if the deal is mentioned. Then order whatever else you want, but they will only reimburse the amount they have stated.

I think the wording is a bit meh, or they are trying to give out mixed messages in the hope that folk will only buy one savoury which means they don't have to fork out the full reimbursement which means more moolah for them.

I remember doing this brand for another company and the reimbursement was 2 x this amount as was the fee. I miss those days!

PayPal is a necessary evil if you want to work for quite a few companies.

I know! I have been scammed on paypal a long while back and ended up losing £250 so am quite nervous of it.

I just use it as a way of getting paid, now bank transfers happen in hours (minutes sometimes) rather than days you can get the money out and into your bank as soon as it hits. I also have a PayPal credit card so I can use the balance for purchases.

Urgh, just had to do three separate "where's my money?" calls in one day. I'll take one as a genuine mistake, albeit a big one, but the other two are looking a bit habitual.

HS brands and GfK - go sit with Gyp

HS Brands owe me a large amount for work done at the start of March, no one bothers to answer emails.

I've had to chase them every time, but always got paid so far. I did find a cooperative debt collection agency in France who are the backup plan.

Either way. One to avoid.

Allegedly, the search engine jobs are getting paid tomorrow.

At last, they will be the last ones I do for them the communication is shocking and they added questions to the questionnaire after I'd submitted some.
