Hello all
Just starting to sign up for MS, accepted by a few but Gapb has said no! Can anyone tell me if I can reapply / when? Bit gutted, actually.



xx truly

Don't know as I never heard of Gap refusing anyone. Surely they must have given you a reason. No harm in trying again.

Brilliant! :rotfl: Thanks for posting that - gave me a little giggle!

Does anyone know if you can ever do the RE casino jobs a second time? Do they have jobs where you are allowed to be a member, or can you cancel your membership and be allowed to do it again after a reasonable gap? Or do they do another casino client? Not that I've got the bug or anything but I really wouldn't mind doing that job again!

Owlet, was yours last night or tonight? Either way, I hope you enjoy it - I was really impressed with the place!

are you signed up to t n s? they do a different casino brand and they defo have jobs for experienced casino goers - as i am sure you are now!!!

Hi All,
I have been allocated a mothers day flower purchase by emysteryshopper. As the website I'm testing also offers other items - ie clothes etc, there is something I'd like to buy as well. My question is - as the allocation info is pretty basic - is there any problem with doing this, or do I have to purchase the flowers alone?

I also have a code for free delivery when spending over £35.

I haven't done one of these before and don't want to mess it up!

Any advice appreciated, thanks

Sorry I can't help, I've only just signed up with them and haven't done any yet - the site is still a bit of a muddle to me . I expect many people are out doing assignments at the moment, but someone will be along soon I expect.

could someone do me a little favour?

could you pm me with the number of chicken jobs available on gap. just curious as i failed the test and now one job is showing up for me. just wondering if this is the only job on there at the moment or is there a load i still cannot see.

thanks

Yes, I am with TNS. Can't say I remember seeing any casinos on there, but I'll keep a look out for them. Thanks!

Yeah, sorry about that. I thought I had posted on this board but then I realized my mistake and deleted it.

No worries, I just thought I'd point it out, in case you weren't aware.

Firstly, I thought this store didn't charge for delivery anyway - although that may just be the flowers. Regarding your question, it may be best just to email eMS, or use the messaging function within the site to contact them. I doubt they'll mind you asking, and the worst they can do is say no.

Thanks for the reply Owlet - I do find they don't have clear instructions like other companies I've done assignments for!

If anyone can help with an answer I'd really appreciate it!

I'm doing a stamp shop today and I want to purchase a Savings Stamp but it says next to it ( Do not purchase savings stamps if you are paying by credit card. Saving Stamp - cash only). Now in the rest of the document is says to pay by Debit Card which I'm going to do, but is that considered "cash" or does it have to actually be physical cash and therefore I have to buy something else?

Don't buy a Savings Stamp on this one - Gap won't accept it and you won't get paid!!

Their paperwork is confusing - the second page usually gives you a list of items that you CAN buy and also lists those that are not allowed but the rest of the paperwork can be ambiguous. Some jobs MUST be paid for with a Debit Card (so the staff member has the chance to offer you cashback) and the forms will clearly state that. Other jobs can be paid for with either cash or debit card - and then you CAN buy a savings stamp but only if you pay cash! Apparently, they are not supposed to sell you savings stamps with a debit card, only for hard cash - I actually got a staff member to check this in their Handbook - so if you try to pay with a card you will almost certainly get refused.

If you do have a job that you can pay with cash and buy a savings stamp, don't forget to ask for a receipt !

I think the one that you can see is the 'Experience' special project one. There are still more than 100 showing on a separate line which you obviously can't see.

I'm ineligible for the burger ones but whenever there is a special project for them I can see those.
