NO!!! Don't phone GAP. People have been sacked for it.

As I said with any other company I'd phone them but not with GAP. With GAP you'll have to wait until they phone you to ask you to do a particular job.

You're right, phoning them is not allowed. You could always email them though, I've found them helpful on the odd occasion I've needed to ask them something.

Just done that and cheekily asked if there were any other clients I am not able to view, I know I bu**ered up a petrol station question in the orientation and I am not allowed to re-do which I feel is a bit unfair but I'm up far anything they will give me at the moment.

I don't know about everyone else but all these questionnaires about "do you feel better/worse off than this time last year" I keep wanting to give an answer that is off the scale!!!!!!!! The wrong way unfortunately!!!!!!!

Does anybody here work for ASI Outsourcing? I've just had an email saying I've been accepted to their panel, and I don't remember applying, though it's entirely possible I did, I applied for loads!

Does anybody work for them, are they reputable, do they have many jobs, do they pay promptly, that sort of thing?

Thanks!

The most likely answer is that either you have not completed the training for this Client OR you have (in the past) answered one of the screening questions wrongly(perhaps you said you hadn't got the right bank card?).

If you have emailed then they should get back to you within a couple of days.

Regarding not seeing the stamp shop jobs, it's usually because you don't have the right bank card. If you've answered that you don't have one of the ones on the list, then they won't let you see any stamp jobs, even ones where you can pay by cash.

From the sound of things, they no longer re-set the questionnaires either, even if you've since got one of the cards, I guess.

I can see 184 too.

It's usually a purchase of £5 (not savings stamps) or post something and get proof of postage. And then ask a series of random questions, 3-5 depending on the scenario. I don't think the questionnaires are there for April yet.

I did the first of a new scenario today, and the questions were related to PO card accounts and car tax (they were similar in the last scenario).

Usually means you have to ask a lot of silly questions while not appearing suspicious
Click on the webexpress and you might be able to see the scenario now (or they might email you a link!)
