    Phew...as long as it's not just me! Hopefully when they sort out their 'new' software it will go back to normal.

    Yes, weird goings on here too

    If I click on "Available Assignments" I only see a few even though I've got my settings set to search 15 miles

    If I click on "Search for Assignments" and put in my home postcode, loads more show up!!!! :confused::confused:

    Yep me too! Exactly the same! Has anyone e-mailed them about this?

    mine is okay just not enough jobs showing unless you are all viewing them lol
  • RE wise, my acct is still at probationary status and I rarely get the visits that are mentioned in the alert thread, i know there could be a lot of shoppers in my area, but i do need to do an assignment to get off probationary?

    I've been reading this thread for a few months now and found it really helpful :) I had to leave my job in November due to illness and am currently on IB although I don't actually get any benefit, just a NI credit per week.

    I'm now looking to start doing some MS, but really would like telephone/web/email type surveys or anything that I can order to be delivered at home as my health (and memory lol) aren't up to committing to go and do mystery shops at a specified day/time. Not yet anyway!

    So I'd love any company recommendations please as I know some companies do more of the work I'm looking for. BTW I've got experience in web based mystery shopping so am not a total newbie.

    Thanks so much :)

    "The search for assignments function may bring up different assignments as it is designed to do so and will always be more up to date than your defined areas function. New jobs will always appear on the defined area at the time of scheduling, as long as they are appropriate to your profile. "

    That's what I've been advised :)

    I totally agree with the above, do you guys work for food only?

    I just signed up with TNS, and was a bit chocked to see that they don't pay any fees either, just reimbursement of the food! :mad:

    As I said before, I would accept doing a bit of work for a giant freebie, but for some fast food or coffee?! Not really.
    Sometimes you'll be out anyway around the area and doing 8+ jobs and a free coffee is just a chance to put your feet up for 20 minutes and relax without having to pay for it. I am one who only accept food in these circumstances as I am not a great believer in unnecessary feeding!! (most of the food is either junk or you have to eat a dictated meal or force feed yourself 3 course meal and some even want you to do it on your own. Of course I'll have sushi anytime!

    I can't read this in Firefox, either, only in IE. Have you let them know?

    If you are in a tizz because you need an urgent job briefing, PM me with your email address and I will dump the text into an email for you - assuming I can see it on my jobs list (I can't see the foot jobs). You'll have to be quick though as I will be going out later for a string of MShops......
