    I got email from edigital 12 days ago (i had sent all paperwork off) and I did the test that night. Still says they are marking it - does it normally take this long?

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker
    I had this on my first one with them - I changed the time on the receipt (which was half an hour before I even entered the shop!) and then explained in the comments. They have a scanned copy of it, so it should be clear.

    On another note, I just went to do a phone shop and the place wasn't there because of loads of building works being done to extend the next door tube station! I wandered around for a while thinking "I come past here everyday and have never seen this particular shop".

    Should I just contact GAP via the "Enquiry" button at the top of the page and explain? Is that the protocol?

    Yes - I did this when this happened to me and I'm still getting the full payment.

    I now do everything in between checking for jobs - this has become an obsession rather than work .... and in between checking for this sort of work I am checking for freelance IT kinda work and bidding for that to do from home. I am addicted :D

    Not posting it on the Alerts thread for obvious reasons, but having not being able to see banks on GFK for the last few days - I've had one come up now. Worth checking if you haven't seen them right up until this morning.

    Hope that helps!

    I am completely and utterly attached to my computer these days, I can't even get any thing done for refreshing and re checking websites I checked 2 minutes ago!

    Oooh I really want one! I'm praying to all the MS Gods out there to let TERN quickly grade my New Shopper Test so I can do another job... My poor boyfriend is going to get so fed up with me filling up my spare time with shopping!
