The only other one is Nielsen.
Did you get rid of thr smartphone your niece gave you?
Thanks, I registered with Neilsen months ago after I think it was you mentioned them. Apart from an acknowledgement I never heard anything else from them after that:eek:. Might try again. I like doing the scanning, nice easy money.
I gave my phone to my great-nephew. His own father died when he was 8 and he and his Mum moved in with my brother and his wife. My brother was his real father figure, they adored each other. My brother was diagnosed with cancer just before Christmas last year and died 2 months later and not only was the poor boy (now 16) devastated but a few months later he was beaten up one night on a railway station as he came back from an interview and as well as considerable injuries that put him in hospital and are still needing physio they stole his phone and his money. That phone was a pretty old one but he had all his photos of my brother (his grandad) on there and was so upset to lose them.
I let him borrow my phone until he could get a replacement sorted but as I only used it about twice a week anyway I let him keep it. He really likes it but was tickled by how few apps I'd downloaded:rotfl:. I don't need a phone when I'm out, I have an emergency basic PAYG for if I'm driving in isolated areas on my own and break down. I'm usually at home and have a laptop and landline phone which serve all my communication needs. There's nothing so pressing that can't wait until I can access one of those or speak to someone face to face. My lifestyle now is so simple and minimalist from choice:j.0 -

you shouldn't be advising who you MS. even though it would be difficult to work out from your username your real name and profile, MS companies have it in their contracts, you don't discuss names of clients you mystery shop.0 -

Thanks:T
the area he lives in is pretty much low-crime but he'd been halfway across the country for an interview and was going home and had to change trains. He'd been with an uncle for most of the journey, he only had to do the last bit on his own. He's a very sensible lad and vigilant. Over 6 ft tall and more grown up than the grown ups in the family:rotfl:. The station was quite a small one but there were people about so not scary at all. He wasn't using his phone at the time, it was in his pocket but I suppose most people have phones and other valuable stuff worth stealing on them don't they. The 3 who robbed him were just looking for someone on his/her own. He was taken by surprise and attacked as he walked between platforms, quite a long walk that wasn't very well lit.0 -
