Can anyone help or explain why i'm getting text alerts for jobs hours after they've been posted on here? Is it my settings or the site?

Turn you phone off that should cure the problem.

Don't be daft. He should change the time on his phone so that the alerts arrive earlier.

Texts are slower when the battery is run down

Of course you can bid. Put in a very late, very low bid and the job's yours!

Totally off point but since all the INTELLIGENT people are on this thread i'll ask anyway Have people lowered their prices since the cut in fuel prices because ive just sat out last week getting outbidded n being ignored by companies who ive done lots of work for? I dont want to lower the price but cnt sit around waiting for work

Had a few comments about prices but just said i didn't put them up when the price was high so swings and roundabouts

Why on earth would anyone contemplate lowering their price just because fuel is currently at a low? See how easy it would be to raise your prices when the fuel price increases. Makesme wonder how some people are still in business ;)

That's nothing to do with the cost of fuel, it's because it's January.

Sorry, I thought I was the only non-paying member! (haven't seen any jobs posted for my location in the last six months).
