    It's always best to try and stick to the MS companies deadlines. But I have on 1 or 2 occasions posted Gap reports the following day and have been paid. (Only because I did a shop away from home and had a problem with the WAN where I was staying.)

    Last time I looked at the post office scenarios, the brief had changed a month or 2 ago and said that you had to spend a minimum amount, even if getting a POP. This did not use to be the case and in the past I have been paid when just posting a packet and getting a POP. Not sure if anyone has tried this since they changed the briefs?

    I've been sacked from the stamp shop jobs with Gap but DH can do them. His brief this month has different questions to those posted above - have to ask about insurance certificate validity and for a form for MOt expemptions (useful to print a copy off the Govt website so you know what you are actually asking for cos the staff don't seem to know what it is!!!). Also, the brief states 'choose EITHER a £4.40 purchase OR get a POP on a letter'. It appears to be just one or the other - the only condition is that you must NOT buy savings stamps.

    BUT the brief on the 1st page states you MUST spend £x.xx in order for the assignment to be valid!!

    TNS are bombarding my inbox (i'm up to 6 e-mails so far) with briefing details for the same two jobs, but the login they have given doesn't work. Anyone else having this problem?


    I've got 9 emails! 3 for each of the three jobs but none of the links work, grrrrr:confused:

    it seems that people on here have 2 views on this:
    post a letter and get a POP OR spend £x.xx

    When you get a reply please let us all know. I have 2 stamp jobs tomorrow and unless I hear different I'll be spening the £x.xx cos I dont want to risk not getting paid!!

    I CAN CONFIRM I HAVE RECEIVED PAYMENT FROM GAP FOR THE FULL £5 REIMBERSMENT + FEE FOR SENDING 1x RECORDED LETTER WHICH CAME TO £1.20

    Hope that clears it up :)

    ROFL, nice one.

    Be interesting to see if those who complained previously about the use of capital letters do it now. I

    I await with eager anticipation.

  • Apparently there are restaurants on RE but I can't see any - just billions of pharmacy visits.

    I am doing something wrong?
