Hi Paul, thanks for the tip :beer:

do you pay out for the flights first and get reimbursed like you do for other jobs?
TIA:o

I get reimbursed once I have done the flight - so it is an incentive to go and a good reason to get travel insurance too. I am not sure if the MS company would have paid the travel insurance though.

I booked online and paid by debit card (there is only an additional fee for paying by credit card). Next time I will pay by credit card as it would be give a month or so of free credit and you also get protection under S.75 of the Consumer Credit Act if you pay by credit card. (but not if you pay by debit card).

So, after all that bother with the quiz I turned up to find that the store is no longer there! It is now another (similar looking) electrical store and I was told by their friendly staff that the other store only operates online now!!!

Yep - I have one of these to do next week - its not my first with ISC but I only joined them a couple of weeks ago and they seem pretty straightforward. The recorded call thing is fine - you just realise how baaaaddd your voice sounds! he he :rotfl:

This is what puts me off too - I hate the sound of my own voice! But I'm doing one of these for ISC too and its my first job with them And I have my first visit with RE coming up in a few weeks. Finally I have something with them!

I'm quite looking forward to the DIY return thing. I change my mind like the wind anyway and might have a little 'disagreement' with OH and blame him for making me pick up the wrong item Or there's another DIY shop next door so I might say I found something better, cheaper etc.

I did my 2nd bank job for GFK yesterday which was so much easier than the 1st as it had no timings. Haven't seen more calls for GFK - I liked those

No problems at all, but no jobs in my area.

My FF has gone in today! The amount is weird though - it's 5 1/2 times the fee for one job. I thought I'd done 5 jobs last month so seem to have an extra amount - not going to complain though!

Just got my first job for OC. It's a straightforward bank job and the fee is quite high - are their fees normally good? If so let's hope I get lots of work from them! it says the assignment has to be done by 17 June 2008 - I haven't had to choose a date or time. Is this right do you think?

Yes I am. Everytime I try logging in it keeps saying my password is wrong - even though it isn't!

Anyone having trouble? I'm starting to panic a bit as i've got a mystery shop in a couple of days

Ellie you will have to take the fee out of the post - for confidentiality.

But, with them you get a date and you have from the first of the month until that date to carry out. Sure its fine.
