    I wish we could do more than 4 of the train station visits.

    Also, do GR give you the full reimbursement for the alcohol part of the slapper visits if you buy something for less than £2?

    I did my 4 yesterday and breezed the reports. I only do the ones with the big reimbursements mind.

    I did a boozy slapper and my booze was only £1, they gave me the full reimbursement though. Hope they do with you too.

    4 DAY FREE LISTINGS on EBAY so if anyone wants to get rid of any coffee from bare, or clothes from re, or anything else for that matter, go go go. PS. Don't forget to pay tax on any sales!

    Re: The last alert.

    Burgers on Gap are not news ;-)
    They were most definitely new for me! I presume they were so desperate for someone to do them that they put them out last night for anyone to do even if you'd failed the questions years ago like me. I was pleased to pick up a few right near me for a decent fee last night.

    Probably a bit late now but I was having this exact same problem last night too. I was tempted to ask on here but thought that the chances of someone being able to help me were pretty slim! I managed to get around it, if I remember correctly by putting it 399 (for spending 3.99). Either that, or I put it 0399 (can't remember I'm afraid). As you've uploaded your receipt, they should be able to tell how much you've spent anyway but I agree, it's so annoying!!

    Yeah, it was 0399 (or whatever) that was required. Which is irritating when the instruction directly above states the format should be 00.00

    Ah well, done now!
  • I'm trying to join TNS. I deleted my account after moving abroad for a few years and now wish I'd never been so stupid. I've tried twice to pass their shopper test and can't do it. Apparently, my score is a 4/5 and my answers weren't up to their standards, despite having written long and detailed answers to each of their questions. Has anyone been successful recently in joining TNS? I really wanted to sign up again as I know they offered quite a few jobs in my area. Any advice would be much appreciated :)

    Hi, I just recently joined TNS and I think I searched online for some ideas for the questions, that and rephrasing some of their own ideas and needs from their information section. (Above ideas also help with job applications!)

    Well Gap dude phoned me up, and as I said, I asked him where he was calling from.

    Guess what? It WAS Australia. I asked the lad what time it was there, and he said half two, IN THE MORNING?!?!

    Isn't that mental?
