product testing and mystery shopping

the trick with retail eyes is to check everyday as they never send any email updates to let u know when something comes up in your area.

Thanks for this, im signed up with someone else but they only offer McDonalds assignments, are they hinting!? :-o lol
Been looking on the website and am i right in saying they want you to buy something and they just pay you what you spent back, nothing extra? There are a few bar jobs and its spend a fiver get a fiver back.
I guess the airport ones are only if your going away? I live next to Heathrow and was going to do some of the bar jobs in there but the carpark is at least £8 for an hour!
Am i just being cheap in asking for a little more than a free 'cardi and coke? lol

Hi, first post but avid reader!
Retail Eyes have been quite good to me, had several local pub assignments!
(paid £15 a time and got expenses back, was a year back mind!)
Also have received phone calls from them asking if I was available for certain jobs!
Pay you by BACS or cheque (have to accumulate £50 now though for cheque)
I'm in Surrey

right well they tell you to buy a beer and a coffee for example and two items of the menu. They give you a spending limit of £xx. You then fill in the questionnaire etc and then the send you the money

OK, so it says:
Assignment Fee : £5.00
Spending Limit : £15.00

Do they refund the £15 you spent plus an extra £5? Or do you just get the Assignment fee of a fiver?

toniq

and are they quick and prompt on paying?

mumofjusttwo

have to say that i haven't received my money but that is because i have set my account up as a bacs account yet.



yes you get the assignment fee and spending limit but of course if you only spent £10.13 then they would only give you that amount and likewise if you spent £46.86 they would only give you a maximum of £15.00 depending on what they had asked you to order. i.e. if you ordered 5 main meals that cost £46.86 but they only asked you to order 2 meals (can be specific) you can only claim for the 2 meals. HTH



At the moment I have nothing to lose as I would have been going out for a meal to the pubs etc so anything i get is a bonus. Only the time i take to fill in questionnaire is extra for me.
