Did a mystery customer job today for Quest, the pay is much better. I would recommend this site to anybody that wants to try mystery shopping, have stopped accepting jobs that pay a couple of pounds a visit, not worth my time.

How do you sign up to Quest? Just doing a quick search and there's only an option to login.

How strange. I want it sorting as I really fancy a you know what burger and wanted to check if any jobs were on!

Finally got around to sorting this out, my account had been deleted due to the GDPR regulations so I had to re-register. Been back on a while but still not seen any of the 4+1 mens burger jobs. Anyone know if they still do them?

They should be, I've only ever seen them on MarketForce. Do you have many of their outlets near you?

I haven't done mystery shopping for a while now, but used to use NOP, GFK, MarketForce and Gapbusters. It must be a couple of years since I did my last job. Should really get back into them again.

Anyone done any good Mystery Shops recently?

Are there more available during the Christmas run up do you think with stores looking to perform as well as they possibly can!

I still miss the pre-christmas edigitialresearch work!!

I've just been having a browse on Market Force..

I would say that all the customer experience / in store checking type work has now gone over to the links of BeMyEye / Roamler etc.

At the moment MF for me is pure FOOD!

Greggs, Pubs, FiveGuys etc. All the 'in and out' type work

Unless of course, the customer experience stuff has gone to the likes of Retail Active and co

the landscape sure seems to have changed (with the fees going down!)

ESA, RA etc are the ones who do this now, and yes its a race to the bottom.

I do MS to get free meals and always do the pet shop ones on RA to get free dog and cat food. They don’t pay well but meals out I see as a free treat and the pet food is saving me some cash so worth it. Recently did a great one for Grassroots where I got a free swim and managed to bag a weeks free trial at the same time which we will use over the holidays! A few cheap days out sorted!

yeah that's a good way to look at it.

I used to do Pret shops for breakfast and then Subway / Wetherspoons for lunches HOWEVER this was back when you used to get your entire bill refunded, that doesn't seem to be the case so much anymore ;(

I used to do a super market cafe so I could have a coffee and cake with my weekly groceries. I have done a few stately homes which were interesting and a couple of train trips. I once had a Disney store come up just before Christmas which pleased my grandson. You don't earn much but you sometimes get useful freebies.

Don't think I've EVER seen a Disney store check from any of the Mystery Shopping companies I worked with in the past!

But then I don't see the Jet2 / Weekends away in Spain being offered anymore either!

Maybe a lot of companies are just taking this sort of stuff in house now!

I have done these for the past 6 months, straight forward to do, if you have not used the online shopping site before then you can get the entire shop free as the pay covers it, otherwise, it will cost you a minimum of £15 for £40 worth of shopping. If they are the ones I have done then only catch is you need a child 14-16 to take the delivery as it is an ID check
