    Anyone else doing the photoshop for ESA? Just had a 2nd job, that I didnt apply for, for the same place put into my inbox. Different scenario from the first. Not got time to phone them just now, anybody else know whats happening with these jobs?

    I've just had a phone call from them about this. Apparently the first job had the wrong questionnaire with it, so they've cancelled those then reallocated them with the correct paperwork. You just need to accept it again :)
  • Anyone else having any issues with GAP ? I did quite a few jobs for them in December and have not been paid for anything.

    They queried one job I did and only gave me two hours to reply or would not pay me - as I was at work I didnt get the email until later that day so didnt bother replying as they had already said I wouldnt get paid, but now when I log in it says that I have exceeded my maximum number of assignments......plus no pay!

    Have mailed them, and not bothered if they sack me, but want payment for all that chicken and burgers I had to eat!

    How strange. Whenever I've had an email query from Gap, they have always given me till 12pm the following day to reply. I agree 2 hours isn't much notice.

    i just got a phone shop from bare but asked for it tio be cancelled it sound s a right faff
    record yourself on your mobile
    in my experience trying to upload these files is a nightmare.

    I have done a couple of these, you just have to press 1 for yes and 2 for no through some questions they read you over the phone whilst in the shop, then write down confirmation number at the end. I find them easy, hardly any actual work to them. Write up is about 2 questions.

    Did one with two assistants and me the only people in the shop, just said at the end that my bank had kept me on hold and they sympathised.
  • Actually went into a Maccy D's for breakfast, not on a mystery shop, today but still asked for a receipt and it was hilarious. Mopping an already spotless floor, opening doors for people etc etc. Bet they thought they would have got 100% (which they may have done had I actually been doing a shop!).
    It's too much fun to wind them up and it doesn't half make a difference to the speed in which you're served !!

    Everyone in my family asks for receipts - it's a sure fire guarantee for hot food!:rotfl:

    You may find yourself barred now. I had to hand back a car circuit because I had flu. I've not been successful in an application since - prior to that I always got nines and ten out of ten so had a score of 9.

    That seems a bit extreme!:(

    I cancelled some telephone call jobs because my recording facility packed up unexpectedly. Luckily, this hasn't actually made any difference to me: I'm still getting work allocated when I apply and recieving phone calls with offers.

    That's not the experience I've had with them, I took on a job but realised prior to doing it that it was still a bit beyond me and cancelled. They were lovely and emailed me to say to keep checking for jobs and they are sure something else would come up that I would be more comfortable with..
