    Can I ask a question about GYP pay? How do you know which ones you have been paid for...I can't find anything on their website and they don't send any paperwork.

    I did 8 travel shops and have only been paid today for 3. They queried one on Tuesday but that leaves another 4 not paid??


    Oh, and can someone answer my question from last night. If you get sacked from burgers is that you sacked from all Gap jobs?

    ETA:- no new jobs on ESA ):

    With gyp you need to look through your jobs and add them up. This month you're being paid for 1st - 28th Feb. They can send you a payslip if you request one but it takes ages.

    As far as I know if you get sacked for one client that doesn't stop all of them. However I have noticed that people who query a specific client sacking do sometimes find that the others follow and they get sacked from more or all of them. Kind of puts you on their sacking radar.

    Got mine today too, and my surname is a 'C'.

    I have done a lot of jobs for ESA and regularly get called on for others.

    MrShopper, good luck with your call, I only do perhaps a quarter of the work you do with them each month, and if I hadn't got the email I would be fuming.


    Thanks SM, I'm gonna ring them at 9, lol. I often get called by them asking for me to cover late jobs or re shops so I would have expected a little more from them.

    I know them all on a first name term basis and I must say they are usually great and on the ball.

    Just bear in mind everyone, when you earn over around £400 in a month with ESA they have to switch you to a tax code. This doesn't affect your self employed status if you are, but it does make it difficult with the self assessment and tax allowances etc. One has to be careful you don't end up doubling up on NIC and tax.

    :)
