I love mystery shopping, and can't believe I haven't done this before. I don't know if I've just been lucky so far, but I've been able to do two a day, picking ones with very little to do in the report except simple yes/no boxes to be picked. It has helped that the staff have generally done what they are supposed to!:rotfl:
I'm also waiting to hear about the 'find a car dealer' one. Anyone actually done this one yet?

Glad the msing is going so well for you! It's nice money if you feel it's not too demanding to earn. If you look a page or so back you'll see that I also asked this question about the findacardealer thing. I think this company can be slow to allocate but it seems unnecessarily late because I think they were due this weekend or maybe next......

They should still pay you anyway, Cholly, since you went to do the assignment in good faith.

Oh I hope so - it was quite a well-paid job!

Must say, I'm finding this kind of fun, it's like acting. The one I've joined doesn't have an enormous number of shops in this area though, so I'm going to look for some others that operate in Spain as well.

Great story, its a toughie that though Hollypear as obviously the MS company won't know the specific areas.

Which company was it for? Hints are welcomed!

It was RE. And got home tonight to find a message on my phone saying they have a couple of queries about my report. QUERY. I'll query them. I take loads of time over my reports to make sure they are totally accurate.

I nervously did my 1st Tern one and waited nervously to get a score of 10/10. I have since done more for them and they haven't queried a single one yet RE are forever querying things.

Don't ring RE! I make them ring me - no chance am I wasting my phone money on answering their pointless questions!

I know the feeling!

"Are you sure there was litter on the counters?"
"Yes"
"But are you sure there was?"
"As sure as I can be"
"But they say there wasn't any litter there on that day"
*sigh*

Hello all, I am back to doing some shops after having baby no.3! My first one back was a bank job on Monday and today I have noticed that the same job is being advertised on GFK again!! Do you think this would be because the staff did not do as they were supposed to? I am getting a bit paranoid that I done something wrong (even tho no-one has called me!

Also I have just signed up for TNS and booked a quickie shop and have a quick question about the mileage allowance - do they pay this in full, so you get your fee, reimbursement and mileage?? Or just how many miles you travel?
Thanks guys
