Hello all

I did my first shop for Gap today. I didn't note down what was to the left and right of the shop as it didn't mention this on the assignment notes. I've submitted the results and receipt anyway and just entered places I remember in the vicinity in the fields so that I was able to submit. Any chance of me getting paid for this?

Thanks

Google earth should let you scoot up and down the street so you can check out what's next to it.

Thanks Money maker.

I'm not sure it would have worked because the street was pedestrianised but I'll keep it in mind if I manage to get over the trauma of this shop and do another one. I only just managed to arrive in time to do the shop because of public transport delays and was really stressing out!

The other thing you could do is, as you have the address of the shop on the brief/notes/questionnaire, google the address next to it and see what comes up.
So for example if the shop address is 8 High Street, Whatevertown, then google 6 High Street Whatevertown and 10 High St Whatevertown.

I had to do this with my first MS (Gap burger) as I hadn't even worried about looking even though I knew it would ask for it, as it was my local High Street, and I've walked past it a million times so I 'knew' what was next door. But if I hadn't checked I would have got it wrong! It's amazing how often we can walk past things and not really take notice!!

Good Morning!

Yes I have allocated the bulk of the telecom shops last night, sorry if I missed anyone out but we had a massive response for nearly all locations.

Have a great friday!

Hope it comes through soon. I find ESA quite mean too. It was all I could do to get the £3 mileage out of them last time, that just made it up to the original fee before the cuts were made! I have heard some people getting good fees from them though. Oh well.

I get loads of calls from ESA asking me to cover urgent jobs that are only a 10 mile round trip. As soon as I point out that this trip involves crossing a very expensive toll bridge and I need an extra £7/8 just to cover the expenses, they quickly back off!!! Only managed to get it out of them once.....

btw, is there anybody on here that covers NE lincolnshire? Always tons of jobs available with most companies. Just wish they would scrap the toll - could be making far more than I do now

Oh no, don't bother asking ESA for any extra, they won't do it. Wanted me to do a 2 hour 50 mile round trip for an extra tenner! Told them to stick it where the sun don't shine. GfK are great for negotiating extra money but they hardly ever call and GAP are good for negotiating extra corner shop, stamp or petrol jobs. Abai never give any extra money either.

Wasn't a pharmacy was it :rotfl:
