    Hi, I received an invite to join Food on the Go, as I am already a member of Shop and Scan, and I had to text to the number they gave me on the email.

    Do I now sit and wait for an answer, or just start texting my snacks straight away?

    Thanks for your help.

    I texted back to the number given in the email and the next day they sent me a text saying "congratulations and thankyou for joining food on the go. You are now on the panel so please start texting in any purchases you make."

    I'm a bit confused because there were two codes for me and my other half. My OH texted and got an answer, and I am still waiting for one on mine. Or because he got an answer does that mean we can both text now?
  • any1 got a spare code please

    you have to get invited by them, I'm afraid (as far as I am aware anyway!)

    i been with them for about 3 years now and never heard of the food on the go texting.
    I do the petrol panel one but to be honest i havent had the greatest of relationships with them as last year they threatened to take away my scanner as they said i hadnt uploaded any barcodes for months.

    i had done but the scanner was programed with a different panel number.
    ( i had a new scanner as my batteries kept going flat so they decided to send a new one out to me and this wasnt programed with my number or so the helpline said)
    i kinda lost interest after that and i dont scan everything i buy but still upload once a week.
