I did it a fair few years ago. I quite enjoyed it, takes a while to get used to working on a laptop. Once you pick it up though, its easy money.

Thanks for the reply
How many services a day would they give you, and how much work.

 

[mfgs]

Normally 7 or 8 as standard, but you can request more if you want. Will you just be doing services or breakdowns too?

Was told it's only services they contract out now. Think the job agency are getting a cut of my earnings that I am not to pleased about, things have changed at B.Gas since I worked there in the 80"s

Did the telephone bit.
Couldnt be arsed to go to leeds for an interview so didnt take it any further.
The money was a bit tight but you would get volume

What do they actually pay?

 

[mfgs]

It depends if you go through a agency or direct to them. I did it about 6 years ago now, and subbies were earning £18-25 a service.
