    I think paypal payments were made before the bank transfers, weren't they. In any case, someone posted a few pages back that they'd received their on paypal...maybe last Thu/Fri?

    I had gyp fries with my meal tonight. It was odd because I had ordered ordinary fries, but the MoS assembling the order called out for "gyp fries". Gosh, the gyp ones are better than the ordinary ones - so hot and fresh! I'm going to specifically ask for gyp fries next time.:rotfl:

    I had a funny encounter similar to this, two or three months ago;

    I visited a GAP Burgerjoint and ordered a breakfast item exactly as is on the GAP Briefing, and then asked for a receipt. The guy handed me my receipt and then shouted over the his mate in the prep-area "That's a GAP one that one Matt". I asked him what that meant and he went all sheepish "It's just to let him know to do it quick" yeah, damn right it was...so, he'll have told his staff (he was the manager on duty at the time) that they've been "buster-ed" that month, only to be visited a couple of days later and potentially (hopefully) be caught off-guard and get a sh*t report.

    He came wiping tables, even picking up rubbish outside the building, all the while I'm laughing so much I could hardly eat the food!

    God I'm a menace!

    I searched the thread for Paypal but thought that was about another company but I could be wrong (it has been known ;))

    Thanks though - can't understand why Paypal would take so long as I thought it would have been instant. Oh well, if its not in there then I can't spend it!

    And wondering why on earth I bother with the first 3 posts on this thread??

    ....................... No, I've never done that. Not once. Not at all.

    It might be a good idea to add this to the header for the forum - please read the first page before posting. Probably a lot of people end up in the forum and don't realise that the first page has all the information. I know it is tiresome but please give them a break - we were all new once :)

    That's exactly what it DID used to say if you look back at old threads - and still people didn't read it!

    I have got one of the online queries to do for GFK but the website address given in the briefing is wrong. I have found what i think is the correct address using google but I am not sure if i am ok to do the assessement on that address or if i should go back and query it further.

    I'd query it with GfK. They are usually pretty helpful, and it might be better to let them know before you proceed.
