    Great, gyp send out a lovely e-mail saying they've extended all the deadlines, please go and reschedule as normal. Have they extended the two I need to do today? Have they heck!

    Send them an email - it says to if you have any problems. Quite impressed that they are pro-active in sending out a reassuring email!

    Yeh I sent them a message this morning via the enquiry thing. They took just over 24 hours last time to get back to me so they should respond before they get taken off me.

    I have 3 jobs to do after work tonight - 2 corner shops and a pizza. Shouldn't have too much trouble weather's not been too bad here and they are all on the same road. I'm hungry already!

    Yes you can spend more than this but they will only re-imburse you £3. And I was told in the last wave thet your return item whould be within this £3. So the 1st one I did the other day they had no eggs due to delivery hold ups cos of the weather amd then I got re-imbursed for the sannies so I spent £0.00

    Mind you I have only done one before so I would suggest you phone them tomorrow to set your mind at rest. If they say you shouldn't have spent more just say your sorry and won't do it next time.

    I was a bit worried about that too. I spent a bit over the max spend on one of mine. I put in the spend on the report as the maximum amount and hopefully this will be OK. If you get an answer from them I would be pleased to hear, as could do with picking up a few bits and don't want to go to yet another shop to buy them!

    HP - thanks for your reply yesterday, I have added a thanks but to one of your later posts.

    I have got through to RE and their IT department is working on the problem as we speak. However I still have not seen a new job and how the hell are they making any money when there has been no activity with them since 24th December.

    It really is not worth risking a broken bone or two on the ice to complete their jobs.

    Cheers Paul

    Same here
    Not a single new job since the site "came back up" (ahem!) in the new year.

    Thanks. I just panicked because on each one I brought something for dinner with took me over the £3.

    I will phone them tomorrow to double check.

    Cte if they say anything tell them you couldn't get to your usual shops due to weather conditions so had to use this shop for essentials. Esp if you bought red wine.:rotfl:
