    Thanks. I received the email confirming the grading of my report on 14th September. Do you think I should have been paid by now?
    On their website it states 4 weeks after a job. In my experience, the first pay took longer than that and I had to email them about 6 weeks after. After that it never took more than 3 weeks. One thing is for certain they are a good company and will pay you for your work.

    SC - I e-mailed them last week to ask them the same question and they said payment usually takes 4-6 weeks after they have marked the shop. I keep checking paypal but nothing yet but last month I did get paid on the 27th so will keep on checking.
    Once you get a payment into paypal you'll get a notification e mail.

    Good, thanks for that - at least that makes it easier - I haven't got to keep logging into Pay Pal every day. I'll keep an eye out.

    Does everyone get emails after they submitted reports?

    I always get an instant message to say I've sent it successfully but never yet had an email to me personally saying any had been received.

    Got me scared now
  • I have a stamp shop for GAP tomorrow and am now reading through the questions but cant work out if I need to ask all 3 of the questions or just 1. I did one about a month ago and only had to do 1of the questions, but I cant work it out this time, has anyone else done any of them?
    (I know I shouldn't have left it until tonight :( )
    TIA

    Nightmare MS tonight - in a pub, had just ordered the food and there was a problem in the pub which caused the fire alarm to go off. An hour after we'd ordered I eventually got a refund as they weren't going to do any more food (and that took ages :rolleyes:), I'd also drank the whole of the wine I had whilst waiting outside and on an empty stomach felt light headed, and then had to go somewhere and buy something else for tea. So that's a phone call in the morning to the MS company to explain (at least it's one with a phone number that gives you 24 hours to submit the results so not too worried) but was annoyed, especially as I'd had a long day at work and wasn't planning on staying out that long :rolleyes:. On a better note I got my first GAP payment today and 2 from GFK so I'm pleased - makes it feel more worth it.

    Only ever done banks, 1 shop, a bookies and the arches so can't help sorry.

    Got me thinking though, seems to be loads of different jobs about but I never seem to see them. Is there a certain time of the day when it best to go hunting for them? I normally only get to check at night and seem to be getting scraps
