    Got mine about half an hour ago, reads as follows:

    That's more taxes for me to sort out... :rolleyes:


    Morover, it's one less company (i.e. many less jobs) for those of us that just stick to the PAYE ones, and it's the end of extra payment for expenses & loss of the 10% extra holiday pay. :mad: (No doubt they, just like GfK, will use the change as an excuse to effectively pay a lot less)

    Done. This is the link for anyone that wants it!

    :D
    I definitely support this, I was thinking of a buddy system myself. If this is an open thread however, any lurkers may never contribute and just benefit form other's hard work. What do you think?

    I thought about this too - I came to the conclusion that I don't really mind - the thread can only help the regular contributors, i.e. it can't hurt.... I don't think there's a way of easily restricting access other than set up another forum altogether, which is something Trubster did a while ago - as it was a whole new forum, not enough people were regularly visiting to keep it updated. Was a great idea but didn't pick up...

    I think it's a great idea Timne! Just hope people don't start getting stressed on it, when people start chatting like the free cinema tickets threads. The amount of stress on there.... Woah!

    Well done!
  • CODES ONLY...just joking...!
    I actually wondered whether it is best to say all the shops you use (as yourself not as a ms), on a company employment info sheet, as it may mean you will never get to ms those shops. Hope this makes sense...am v tired after coughing at night for the last week.zzzz.:o

    TNS has seemed to me to be going downhill for a while. They seem to have less and less jobs - suspect they are struggling! (and yes, I am sure moi is right, we will lose the holiday pay! :mad:)

    Not sure I am going to bother to do much for them in the future. I wonder if (as suggested by an earlier poster to this thread) they have realised that they are at risk of breaching the minimum pay legislation with the rates they pay (or don't pay) at the moment? :p

    I'm shopping a 'mail' place tomorrow and the guidelines say to look for "the specified leaflet" but the guidelines don't specify a leaflet to look for! Can I presume that the leaflet I'm looking for is related to the scenario/service I have to ask about?

    Right, I've just applied for my first job with TNS and it's now showing on my "My Visits" list. Where do I find the brief which tells me what to do, etc?

    Thanks

    JKS Mystery Shopping

    I'm registered with them but have never got anything from them. There are never jobs in my area nor, it seems, in the whole of England!!

    Has ANYONE ever got anything from them? :confused:
