Hmmmmm, thanks for that - tried it and it tells me the assignment is not valid??????? yes - I did put in the correct number - tried it three times. Against the assinment on the "my assignment" page is has in red rejected/cancelled - have I been sacked already? lol

This just means they have cancelled it for some reason, its normally if you were the last person to shop that address. However obviously thats not the case for you. CAn you double check the date? Try contacting them via the website.

Yep - as soon as you think things are going well someone puts a barrier in your way - story of my life that! You cant even sneak through the goods entrance any more - how sad is that!

OK I have a question, hardly dare ask nowadays in case I get into trubble ! But - I am doing my first job for Gap this week and have had no assignment notes, am I to assume that I just do it as per the training manuals that you do for your initial test?

[STRIKE]It's all done online rather than by email. You go onto GAP's site, go into "WebExpress", put in the assignment number, then choose "Show assignment paper".[/STRIKE]

Far too late...!

No - you need the assignment ID number, which is on the left of the title of your assignment when you go into "My Assignments" at the top of the site.

So you copy that number then click on "WebExpress" at the top of the site.

In the box that appears, type/paste the assignment ID number into it and click "next".

2 options should appear below - left hand side = assignment notes, right hand side = entering results.

Select the appropraite one for whatever stage you are at. - Don't foget to print out the questionnaire!

EDIT: Whoops, I'm not a very fast typer!

When i was young i was in to trains and spent far too much time at norwich station. When they tried to instigate something similar we found they sold platform tickets. Do they still do them?
