Do Amber Arch ever have any jobs on their website. There's an alert on the alerts thread about an email (but I never get any emails off them), and I always check both sites, and I've never seen a job anywhere in the country on there.

You should be getting emails from them each month - check your profile and make sure the email you've got registered is correct, and then maybe check it hasn't gone into your spam folder. Failing that you could try emailing them - but they've never bothered to reply to my last few emails (in the end I had to register an old unused email address in my profile in order to get them to STOP sending jobs emails!!!) :mad:

As mentioned jobs are email only (at the moment), they are in the process of moving from email & cheque payments to Sassie & paypal

I have only ever received two emails from them. One of 5th July and one on 6th July. Nothing through today. Very strange...

A question to my fellow Suffolk ms'ers. Has anyone else got a greyed out fast food shop on Gap. Its for the place near the pet shop. Been greyed out for a while and I was wondering if this meant I couldn't shop it anymore.

Phew, i'm glad you asked that. It's been greyed out for me for the last 2 months and my last shop with them was a bad report so I thought i'd been banned from shopping them!

I wasn't paid for a visit in June and I asked them and they told me they had problems with some expenses not going through on the website and I've been paid it this month.

I've been paid for the 2 TNS coffee jobs I did in June. One of which I just had the coffee and cardboard wafer, the second, I also purchased in addition an almond croissant. Got paid in full.

The 3rd coffee job I did on 1 July hasn't been paid yet.

I really wish they'd update the payment totals on the Sassie site like all the other companies do!

It's a bit of a strange one. Usually when a job is greyed out, it means the timeframe to do it has passed but Gap don't normally take so long in providing some new shop dates.

How do you know which specific jobs you've been paid for?

Just tried to do a Gap Petrol job. The forecourt was roped off saying "Temporarily closed for electrical testing". I couldn't go back as it was in the middle of a circuit, and would have been out of the time-frame anyway. Anyone know if I have a hope in hell of getting a payment? I have photos of the site and ropes!

There was one on my area all last month that wouldn't accept any of the allocated dates. Stayed till after the deadline then disappeared. Never grayed out though. When trying to accept it it said "another shopper has accepted".
