I am registered with three mystery shopping companies and would like to warn people of my first (and last) experience of one of them. Last week I received a request from Mystery Shoppers Ltd to go into town, look for a temporary AXA stand and spend 15 minutes taking out life insurance, which I would then cancel and be sent £15. I spent 20 minutes looking for the stand, money on a phone call to Mystery Shoppers and 15 minutes waiting for a reply. ...
...I'd be sent £10. I sent my claim form with a letter explaining that this was their fault and had spent much longer on the task than promised, so deserve £15. I have just received a cheque for £10, with no reference to my letter. Their own breach of contract is appalling, and their ignorance and arrogance disgusting. Please register instead with one of the many other companes. ... Read review

...long review! BACKGROUND: Teaching wasn't something that I wanted to do. When I was younger I wanted to be a solicitor because that's what my Dad did. When it came to applying for university I really couldn't face the thought of studying law for three years so decided to do my degree in History (my passion in life - no jokes thank you very much!). I always thought that I'd carry on with the law stuff after my degree. However, by the time I was ...
...A few people had suggested teaching to me in the past but it was never something that I'd taken too seriously. No one was any help - 'do what you want' - ARGH!!! I phoned my best friend in turmoil and she said that she could really see me as a teacher and thought I would be really good at it. I decided that I would go for it. My decision was based mainly on the fact that I loved History so much and thought it would be great to work around it every ... Read review
