    Doesn't it just make you so :mad: , now you have said that I would buy the extra bottle, hope someone who has done the job comes along soon. It is hard to say no to them when they are on the phone, I am the same !

    Yes it does :mad: And knowing their reputation for using the slightest excuse to avoid paying, makes it worse!

    Anyway I am off out now, have a couple of jobs to do in town. Will check back in when I get back so if anyone knows for sure about the Gap drive-thru, I would appreciate the advice.

    Hope the reimbursement covers the spend this time! I DID ask about that on the phone and was given a vague sort of answer that it should cover it. God help them if it doesn't!!!

    I'm reading the instruction differently. I think what they are saying is that you must buy a post mix drink, not a can. I can't see where it says you must buy two drinks.
    Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.

    I've done a bucket meal and a single meal for the chicken place where you need a "post mix" bottle drink.

    For the single meal I asked for orange - be aware it's 30p extra (or so the member of staff told me). Not sure about the water. On another visit for the same scenario, they had neither orange or water so I had to just ask for cola. GAP didn't say owt and just approved it.

    For the bucket meal I just specified the drink which comes with it to be cola. Submitted my results last week and haven't had any queries so far, it's been approved according to the website.

    Hope that helps :)
  • Got a pizza job for Gyp to do today. It says on the briefing notes that:

    "Shopper is to visit the restaurant and purchase the buffet option and a portion of garlic bread, which comprises one buffet selection and 2 refill drinks, for up to 2 people."

    However the assignment notes make no reference to Garlic Bread and only mention a Salad Bowl ?? :confused:

    Also, can we get 2 buffets or do we just buy one ? Seems a bit weird to say you can take up to 4 people but only buy one buffet.

    Any thoughts?

    Hiya,

    I have just done a job for Gap and am in a pickle as things didn't go to plan and I obviously can't contact them. Is anyone free that I can pm as it's impossible for me to say what happened without saying what job I did as it's a service rather than a shop. Hope that makes sense!! Hopefully someone will have come across the same prob...
