  • At the moment I am making £900 per month but many people would take a year to earn that amount.

    When an MS shopper appeared on Martin's TV programme it was said she earned £500 per year plus £1500 in 'perks'.

    £900 a month? :eek: :eek:

    How many burgers and pizzas is that? You must look like the michelin man!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Most of my work for MS companies is done at home! Never bought a pizza, burger, drink or ever visited a turf accountant!

    when i did tns application i tried to use my own words rather than quote from the hand book is it best to copy wjhat they say i suppose it depends if they have much work in your are too
    I think using your own words is the right way to go but make double sure you are doing your spelling and punctuation correct. Also little things like 2 spaces after a full stop, one space after a comma. Capital letter after full stop. It sounds silly but they are very keen on how you write as well as what you write. Hope this helps!

    I think the crucial thing is not to say how much an MS company pays per job.

    It is not difficult to work it out from your posts
    e.g. "I got £x for 3 jobs"

    When working as a mystery shopper it is probably not a good idea to make assumptions!

    but does help to be good with figures. :beer:

    Other companies, competitors, read these posts and that's why we have to keep all the information confidential. So that they don't pinch the contracts and reduce the fees...

    How long does it take for RE to process a report? I submitted mine on Tuesday afternoon but haven't heard anything back yet.

    I can depend on who the report is for. I have a report that I did on |Tuesday and I am waiting for that to be processed too.

  • Have you tried Assosia? Many of their reports require just a few words and the pay is quite good too. Admittedly, the work is not regular, but when the works comes it is sometimes possible to earn a quick £60 (from several short jobs). I earned £27 last night and they took my report over the phone because my internet was down.

    Can I just mention that Assosia take breaches of confidentiality VERY seriously and by mentioning fees you are, in effect, breaching the confidentiality agreement you read everytime you do a job for them. It would be better not to discuss them on a forum in anyway. I am sure those who work for Assosia have had emails recently, making it VERY clear, that nothing is to be discussed on open forums and frankly, I am surprised people haven't taken this on board.
