ARTICLE - Doing Mystery Shops Beyond Your Area
Fancy doing some mystery shopping while you’re on the move?
Whether you’re off on a UK holiday or just zipping around town, why not sneak in a bit of mystery shopping for us while you’re at it?
We post all mystery shops online around the 25th of each month, ready to be shopped the following month. If it’s a last-minute adventure, don’t stress! Just give us a call on 0203 095 4954 and let us know where you’ll be heading.
Your Fieldwork Manager for that area will be able to tell you what assignments are available—and may even be able to assign one to you directly.
If you know your travel plans ahead of time, you can check out what’s available in that area. Just head to the ‘Assignment List’ and edit your location. If you need a hand, click here for guidance.
Here are a few tips to keep your mystery shopping smooth and easy while you’re away from home:
Mind the details!
Some mystery shops require you to provide contact details. For example, if you’re visiting a Leisure Centre, make sure you use an address that matches the area you’re mystery shopping in. (A Manchester address when you’re shopping a London gym? Big giveaway!)
Can you complete it?
Some shops might need a follow-up visit, like member journeys or refunds. If you’re only in the area for a short time or can’t complete the full shop, it’s best not to accept it—we can’t pay unless the shop is fully completed. Always read the brief and questionnaire carefully, and when in doubt, reach out to your friendly Fieldwork Manager!
