The mystery shopping thread - part 4

Could someone point me in the right direction to Abai please, I've looked on the OP but it's not mentioned, thanks

http://www.aba-i.co.uk

although I was just about to come and ask a question about them too. I signed up with them, but for some reason they only seem to want to offer me jobs with a certain high street hardware/discount store, and there are never any of them anywhere. Does this sound familiar with anyone? Have I done something daft not realising it?

Apocryphal, is that the only client on your abai homepage? If, so go to the 'contact us' tab and ring abai on any of the telephone numbers and say that you know its cheeky, but you want to increase your client list and they will add the other comps that you are applicable for (i.e for your age, sex, location etc). I did this and I recommended this to others and no-one has had any problems doing this. The staff at abai are very helpful.:D

Thanks cookinmummy, I'll do that

Also, apocryphal - are you searching the aba-i way?

1. In first drop down box choose country
2. Ignore the 2nd drop box (leave it saying please select).
3. Do not type any letter in the third box just click the space bar (type a blank space)
4. Then hit the search button.

HTH:D

Thanks apocryphal, but when I go to http://www.aba-i.co.uk there is only something to fill in your user name and password but nothing about signing up with them and no other links on the page

Thanks for that - followed your instructions and a local catalogue shop was there which wasnt showing up when I searched my county!

One question though - it's showing 9 pages of jobs - how to I get onto page 2, 3, 4 etc??? When I click the number nothing happens ....

Abai - doesnt like firefox so if you are using that I would try opening it with IE. Also, the pages take an age to load when there are quite a few pages - so maybe leave it a couple of mins and come back to it.

Anyone want to reccomend me to RE? I'm new here but have already done some mystery shopping, having found your very helpful list i'm signing up for one or two companies that I hadn't found before.

This is a really useful forum and now that I've found it I expect I'll be back!
