    Default CIS advertising

    Finally my details are on the CIS website.

    I am a bit annoyed though.

    The first thing, and I know this is REALLY petty, but they have dated my submission 18th December so I am half way down the page! I had hoped that as the details only went live today that I would come up at the top of the list!

    They have listed the Primary school I do collections from but not the Pre - School. Also they have stated I do before school, After school, All year and Babysitting. I ticked the boxes saying I did Full time and Part time but they have left this off the list. Do you think this will stop parents contacting me? I am wondering if it looks like I just do before and after school care!

    Love

    Debbie

    Hi Debbie

    I have never ever had them put what I actually want them to put

    They always make mistakes

    I wanted them to put that I work with special needs - they put that I do not ?

    I said I had one vacancy - they said I had none

    I told them the schools I pick up from - they put a school that was a 30 min walk away

    So I got lots of calls for pick ups from that school which was no good to me

    Call them and do not leave it

    contact them and get all of the bits changed/added. you can ring them or i usually do mine by email.

    Of course you want it to show everyone the details of your business, i update mine regularly and then you will go to the top of the list.

    Good luck
    Hope that helps

    It took them 7 weeks to drop my NCMA toolkit off! Its about the only thing we get free round here.

    It had the contracts in it, they literally arrived with it 20mins before M mum came to sign so I looked totally unproffessional as I hadnt had a chance to review the forms.

    Its not changed yet online, If its still not changed tomorrow I will ring them again! I dont really understand how hard it can be. It was just a load of boxes to tick that they then had to transfer.

    Love

    Debbie

    I've always phoned them and find them very helpful! Even if it's just to get your name on the top of the list!

    The system usually updates overnight so you should see amended details either tomorrow or day after at the latest.

    If I have a vacancy I usually ring up to confirm every few weeks as Emma says it bumps your name up the list.
