I have a shop to do on the 5th too. I've tried to reschedule but there are no alternative dates. So, i'm left with the only option but to cancel, but it says if I cancel then it will affect my rating - anyone know what I should do?

How much money can one earn on avarage doing mystery shopping per month or per year, before or after tax?

Some of the companies want your banking details, how do you feel about that? Is it safe?

Some of the companies are in the US or on the continent, are they safe? Will they pay out?

What about the video mystery shopping? Anyone doing that?

And what about the telephone recording?

Using your address as a postal research address?

Why not just enter your GAP results when the website is back up? They can't punish you for it

I'll bet they would try D4wno ! Think i'm going to have to do that though - I really don't want to cancel it !

I am going to send them an email and see if I will be punshied.

Anyone have a good name to put in the title. Is it Sema who replies quickly?

I would not cancel, just try and get your paperwork before hand. On the 22nd of October when the site was down it seems like a lot of people were not aware and were stuck for paperwork etc. You could put your results in before 2 or leave it until it is back.
The maintenance though always takes longer than planned.

Jobs are usually grey when they are in someone else's basket, awaiting confirmation that they about to be grabbed. There are so many grey atm that I suspect website malfunction - I think that the fact that they are about to upgrade their website (on April 5th) supports this theory.

It's really frustrating in the mean time......:mad:
