    Anyone else having problems uploading to GAP ?

    The Browse button has disappeared. "Receipt upload" option appears next to the assignment in "My Assignments", but still no browse feature.

    Anyone any clues?

    Been able to upload my receipt over an hour ago although I have had to come off IE and did it on Firefox instead.

    Oh you want to send anymous letters ?

    Gosh that REALLY gives a good impression of mystery shoppers to the clients

    I actually think it gives a VERY good impression...caring enough to take the time to write/call/email the client? Definitely!

    Send them back a proof reading query squidgeum.

    She needs to correctly spell "writing", a comma is needed after the word "that". Sentence 2 doesn't make grammatical sense, especially with the capitalisation of Proof Queries. Neither does turning Clients into a proper noun.

    Certainly dock 2 points there.
    Oh how funny, lol. I was so cross I didn't spot all that.

    Oh dear, ESA have dropped the freezer shop fees again :(.
  • Has anyone else had the email supposedly from ESA offering work if you follow their link and log into your account? How did they get my email and how do they know that I MS for ESA? Think I might send a copy to ESA and ask.

    Ok Im new to MS and this board so Hello all and be nice!

    I have registered on a few MS sites and have taken some tests and passed, now what I dont get is how do I get jobs allocated to me? I get emails every few days stating jobs available but they are too far away and there is no real incentive! Are the fellow money savers on here snapping up these jobs quickly! Or are they allocated to you individually?

    Hi , it all depends on the company - gap/re you have to log into their site. Other companies you get an email when they have jobs in your area. Incentives are not usually great but worth it if you can get a few jobs in one location.

    As if they weren't obvious enough already :(

    Many of them are small stores and you end up having to ask the MOS at the till everything. I can just imagine the impatient stares from the customers queuing behind me when I ask that :eek:

    I'm expecting a parcel from ESA any day now, containing a standard issue blue flashing-light helmet (to be worn on all egg shop visits)

    This one had a really dodgy web site address. Not the usual ESA one!! Looks like someone might be trying to grab account details :eek: The thing that worries me is how they got my contact info in the first place.
