    I sucessfully registered last week but it won't let me access the site to see what stores are available. Given the speed they came back to say I was acecpted it must be automatice acceptance, no-ones actually reading what you write to see if you are suitable. I emailed them last thursday abotu accessing the site but still haven't heard back from them, can't say I am at all impressed with them so far. I would tend to agree and say it's a scam:mad:

    It's not a scam at all - I've done plenty of jobs for them, and you do get a tenner in the post about a week later.
    The jobs aren't available all the time though, you need to keep checking the website. I think the last lot I did were about 6 weeks ago.
    Of course, now that so many people are joining up, it will be harder to get jobs as there will be more people chasing after the same amount of work :rotfl:

    I signed up tp both.
    Wilkinson has no stores no matter what criteria you put in the search field!!:confused: doesn't instill confidence.
    Matalan has some reserved stores dotted around. will see what happens.
    look after the pennies.....

    hi dont u think its a bit funny that matalan site for mystery shopper. i cant believe youve got to go and actually purchase an item from your own pocket just so you can recieve £10.

    Just applied great tip thank you.
  • Signed up for matalan and Retaileyes yesterday. Was accepted immediately for Matalan, but no shops that close to me. (Others that were considered close - Chelmsford being the closest and that's 70 miles away, were all on reserve!). Retaileyes was weird. The website didn't work properly, then when I tried to register again it said I was already registered. I then put in for lost password, but no emails from them. Tried it again just now and got my password and username straight away. logged in and two jobs waiting already. Thanks for this. :)


    I've just registered with counterintelligence again, but this time for all their shops (Burtons, Topshop, Evans, etc, etc) and not just Matalan. To do this, I went to:

    Hi I'm not sure if this is the right forum for this post but I'm sure the moderators will move if need be. I was on the Wilkinson's website and they are looking for mystery shoppers If your accepted then you will get paid £10 cash for each survey you complete about various stores including Wilkinson. I've completed my details and keeping my fingers crossed.

    I've been a mystery shopper, £10 is not much, especially if you have to travel to the store that the company chooses to do the survey, it could be miles away leaving you out of pocket.

    Just had a look at this one, they want 2 references! Do you know how much they pay as I can't see info on website? Also they want your bank details and don't pay until the end of the month after you do the job! Has anyone worked for them?

    Just got an email tonight from Retail eyes for a job. Nearest place is 22 miles away, and its a pub. Get paid £5 and £10 for drink. We ain't travelling that far for a fiver, petrol alone would swallow most of that up.

    Don't go in pubs often anyhow too much smoke, I leave them for people who don't mind killing themselves on there's and other peoples smoke

    No longer a user, goodbye folks. PLEASE delete my account. Thank you
