    but aren't they required by law to provide me with a receipt if I ask them? I just thought they could write one or something if they can't print it...

    If you don't want a receipt at the time of purchase a shop is not under any obligation to give you one 20 minutes later as the transaction is long since past, plus the times on the receipt may be at the time of reproduction so GAP would probably sack you for trying to input misleading times.

    I can see your point... wouldn't change the info, just trying to find solutions really. Thanks.
    I usually just ask for the receipt, and then say something like "It's good when my boss reimburses me for lunch on a non-work day!"

    I did have an email from Gap last week saying we can now pay with plastic so should get the receipt automatically that way so not drawing so much attention to ourselves.

    I got that email too but thought you still had to get the vat receipt, probably best if I re-read it! Thanks for advice!

    I have only done about 6 jobs for RE so far, is that why I can never see the underground ones! Any idea when I will?

    I think its just the location. I can see two, both 20miles away from me.

    PM if you want to know where I am!
  • I haven't done any RE jobs and I can see the underground ones so it may just be they don't have them in your area
