Can anyone tell me how long it normally takes BAI to check your report and give you a rating? I did completed my first report yesterday and am waiting for it to be processed - then I can self assign a job I have my eye on!!

Oh boo hoo

I did a bank mystery shop for GFK today but forgot to do one part of it. I've had to email them and own up :embarasse . Most probably wont be paid now and I have been with them for only a matter of days. They most probably cut down on jobs they give me

Occasionally they are quick, but I would say about four or five days. I kept checking my first one religously every day to see what score I had :rotfl:.

Don't fret I'm sure you'll be fine.

Phew! I thought it was just me. It's funny how they can manage to assign me the wrong job - they haven't even got in touch about a couple of jobs I DID apply for, it still says 'pending'. How long does it all take??

hi Mukaki. Have you done your bare basics test? I had 3 jobs on pending for weeks then the day I did the basics they phoned to offer all 3.

Sorry about your GFK bank. I have the same thing to do tomorrow. Hope I remember it all.

Thanks cookinmummy.

So I actually have one of the recorded, credit check jobs tomorrow! I really hope it all goes ok since there will be a credt check against my name at the end of it. Are these actually for the banks you visit or is it someone else paying for the shop? You'd think if it was the actual bank they could wipe the check off. I know OC do that if you do ones for them which require a credit check.

Good luck with that, did they send you the gear or do you have it? I might apply for one myself if I feel brave enough...

Ah ha! the bare basics test - no, I haven't done it. That explains alot.
I just got an email back from GFK, they told me what to do and said it was fine :j - let's hope they mean it!

They sent it out to me. Sent it via DHL to arrive this morning - give me enough time to have a go with it and make sure I can get the quality ok and save it properly.

Fingers crossed it'll all be ok!

quick question re train calls.

In the time for start of call - do they want the time you got through to the automated thing OR the time you started chatting to a person? Only querying as I was on hold for quite a while.
