  • I guessed the store number bit, but the rest ain't clear. I rang them up to ask in the end - the guy didn't know and acknowledged the shopper instructions were confusing. And apparently this question has come up quite a few times, but he couldn't remember the answer. He said he would ring back, but didn't bother. So I rang again just before 5.30 pm and spoke to someone a bit huffy who didn't really know what was classed as the receipt number, but suggested I put all the numbers after the store number.

    Very impressed with their knowledge and helpfulness :undecided

    Haha think I know who you mean, one of them can be a right dragon at times!!

    They have the image of the receipt attached to the job so it probably doesn't make a great deal of difference as they would change it anyway :)

    So I am new to all this, can someone explain why I can't assign any jobs with GAP. I did one last Friday my first and now says there is a limit of 0 per day please try again tomorrow, is it to do with me being new or do you think I am being locked out!!?!?
    Thanks in advance

    I think it's something to do with your bank details - this is what they said to me and since I've put my details in again I'm allowed to go for jobs again.

    I had this problem, I had to email GAP for them to put it right. It's some sort of error on the system.
    Moving onto a better place...Ciao :wave:

    I do hope that this is RE's usual monthly "shift all the payments to the next payment date then pay you anyway" trick. I'm owed a lot today (25th), but it isn't in pending payments on Internet Banking, and on the dot of midnight, knocked over to 10th September. I will not be impressed if it's delayed...

    EDIT: Actually, scratch that. I'm confusing RE with a company that pays on the date they say they'll pay on, whereas looking back, they issue payment on that date, so it's days later you get it...

    Personally for the phone calls I get an itemised bill and put the real cost down as an expense. However I don't use the phone for that many MS calls and the phone package is mixed up with the internet etc so it would be a right faff to look at a percentage.

    Remember to include a reasonable chunk of your broadband because all your MS stuff is probably done online :)

    I have just completed my first assignment for PiP and I have tried (twice) to enter my results and submit, both times as soon as I hit submit the page says 'timed out'. Luckily the second time I re entered my results I printed them off so it'll be easier to input again but I am a bit concerned now about what I am doing wrong. I can see no way of getting in touch with them once you log in??? Help!

    I've found an email address now and asked for assistance - I've tried opening in Firefox and IE but the page still time's out once I've input my results.

    There has to be something written in every box even if it is N/A. Was that the problem?

    Does anyone know what day payment for tns will be this month. I do believe there were a couple of problems last month with payments. Are they meant to pay around the 28th of the month (ish)!
