    I'd be interested to know as well, because I did some petrol jobs last weekend and didn't send them but I do remember having to input some details from the receipt.

    Hi

    Can someone please help me?

    I have done a petrol job for Abai and I can't work out what I need to do with my receipt. I have read the paperwork over and over but can't see whether I have to send it off or email it somewhere. BUT I'm sure I saw something saying I needed to send it to them

    Can anyone help??

    You don't need to send it anywhere. Just keep it safe "in case". In 2 years of doing petrol jobs (all jobs for ABAi come to think of it) I don't think I've ever been asked for it.

  • Has anyone had an email form 'Bing Search Team'? I use one email address for MSing and nothing else. I have never had any junk sent to this mail, however this arrived today.

    does anyone know how the gap pizza works. I did a job at a particular branch over a month ago and a different one since then. I now tried to apply for the 1st one again but was told i cant do it because "i cant shop the same site twice in a row regardless of shop month" ????? its been longer than a month so bit confused :((
    Its really, really badly worded, but I understand it means that someone else must shop the branch before you can do it again. Sometimes you'll find they'll phone you do it anyway if they get desperate!

  • Sorry, to be the bearer of bad news but I messed up the burger jobs over a year ago and have never been allowed to see the jobs again! I have asked at several monthly intervals can I do the test again and the answer is always no! :mad:

    Thanks Jedi - I thought that might be the case :( Damn! Sorry to hear about your burgers - you can have mine if you like, as they're starting to recognise me at our local branch :p The whole manager-holding-the-door open for you and everything. I've had to have a little break from doing them!

    Hi

    This happened to me with the burgers, apparently its the client who wont allow it.

    However, it also happened for the sandwiches under ground too - and they reset it and let me do it again. So, its worth asking.

    Ooh thanks for that truly1. Good to know some clients allow it. I've emailed them to ask (and asked about the stamps at the same time too) so fingers crossed - they prob won't let me but oh well, I should be on a bit of a diet atm anyway with summer coming up! :rotfl:

    Oh yes I did actually, now you mention it (also to the address I use for MS'ing, although I use it for other stuff too so didn't click that's what it was for). I just deleted it without reading as it looked like junk - did anyone open it? What was it about?

    Evening all. Well this is the end of my first week back in work and it was SOOOO weird being back. After being off for 10 months I found it really weird. The best part though is that I get to nap for 20 mins each way on the train and eat my dinner without someone else trying to steal it from me lol. At least I'm off tomorrow so can spend some quality time with them. Did a couple of MS jobs in my lunchtime but ended up like a headless chicken as I'd forgotten how long it takes to get from the office to shops!

    In relation to the Bare debate I'm agreeing with SC. If they ask you to call a particular place that's their doing. It's as SC said - you didn't just choose to call random places. Mine were just calling to see about the price of something and all 6 of mine were OK but if they'd tried the half a fee on me god help them I'd have been straight on the phone. Anyway got one GR job on tomorrow and then a peaceful weekend. Got offered overtime (already!) but not quite up to that yet - I'm off to bed in a minute x

    Aside from the 2 per day max, is there a MONTHLY max total for gap chicken shops?

    They mean that the same mystery shopper (you) can't shop that pizza place again before another shopper does.

    I asked them this question yesterday about the burger places.
