thanks a lot!!!

No probs, I'm sure it'll be ok.

ABAi are a great MS company, one of the best IMO - staff are very very friendly and are always happy to help in my experience.

Not true. Alone on burgers but not on chicken. I take my kids to chicken and have had verbal confirmation from them that its ok to do so.

I don't do chicken, I don't like the restaurant. I got a begging call for the burgers once though, and I said I was sorry I couldn't do the visit because I had no care for my baby. He said it was fine if he was strapped in his car seat as long as I didn't mention it on the report I didn't take them up on the offer though!

I agree, if they're going to use the report then you should be paid for it- if they wanted to be really picky they could just give you the fuel money. I'm *hoping* they'll be sensible and allow mine at 1p under, fingers crossed.

Look. please don't jump down my throat but the instructions clearly state that you have a minimum spend. I can't see it makes any ifference either BUT thats what Gap say and thats what you should be doing! However daft it is, Gaps rule should be followed if you want to be sure of payment. The fact that the job hasn't re-appeared doesn't prove they are using your report and you really haven't got a case to argue with them if they choose to reject your report.

I don't do them but I know it involves scales and a thermometer!

I take it this was aimed at borders and not me? I admitted I made a mistake and under spent, and just hoped that 1p would be ok. I have no idea if they are taking or rejecting my report yet.

It wasn't aimed at anyone - just a comment on the overall discussion. Its never worth taking a chance on Gap nor arguing the toss after the event - they can be VERY picky and usually stick rigidly to their rules. Some of their rules have no bearing at all on the job results but, if thats what they want, its best to stick to it. Its annoying when they reject your results but thats just Gap!

The are very straightforward and quite routine. The only difficulty is taking the temperature within two minutes but I usually park close by and go back to the car. You will be given a stopwatch as well but I tend to use my mobile. They are worth doing less hassle than the burgers.
