They are so slow I had to actually look them up when I read John's message!! About a month ago they invited me to take part in a focus group and asked me to log on at 7.30pm one evening; I logged on, and....nothing!! Not even an apology. Hmmmph...!

For a focus group, though, Katie, you usually have to be sent a special URL and password to log in beforehand. I was invited to one and told I qualified and would be sent log in details prior to the start at 7.30pm (a popular start time it seems!) and when I did not receive the email, I phoned them and they apologised profusely and sent the email right away and in I went and got paid £30 for it! :) I think you have to definitely qualify, first, I mean, get past the few first opening stages. :)

Yes, I had done all of that, Lizzie; they sent me the URL, login and password details and then, poof, a big fat nothing. What peeved me was any lack of a simple "thank you"... :-( £30 is a good payment though.

What a shame, Katie, incompetence in a staff member could be the answer...or sloppiness!!! :(
