    I had a phonecall from Gap asking if I could do a premium job where I would get paid extra but when I look at my assignments it doesn't mention the extra payment. Has this happened to anyone before? This would only be my second mystery shop with them.

    Yes, the premium usually gets added later (apparently there are only a couple of people in the office who're allowed to do it). I've usually been told that it'll be on by 8pm.

    If you've done the job and you don't have the premium then contact them, but if you've only just been phoned don't worry yet.

    That was the jewellery payments in case anyone was wondering. Cheers BG

    I avoided the jewellery but I've been paid for the computer audits, having done most of the Central Belt the payment has made me a bit happy :-)

    Sounds good! I am also happy as they paid me pretty much maximum reimbursement even though I spent less than reimburse on one and more than on the other. So now I've sold my goods on ebay Ive made a little more profit than I first thought. :)

    Was wondering when they would get around to paying these, they owe me for 7 so a decent sum

    Mimi - over on Alerts - said 'GFK EMAIL re: TV CHANNEL PROVIDERS (you can easily ask for the fee to be doubled, they are desperate'

    So that's just what I have done - but they are not biting. So I guess I will just have to stay home and mend my vest.

    Have a good weekend folks.
    arghhh!!!

    im so tired i just took a gap pizza without a premium as i can not face cooking tonight, what are times coming too...

    then got told they wont deliver to the address as they are not insured to go to my address as it is outside their zone eg postcode **38 0** despite saying the gap brief saying they deliver to **38 0** and Ive had many a delivery inc the messed up one last month when they delivered 2 cold of the wrong type of pizza instead of one of the right ones..
    thankfully she agreed to ask her manager who said they would deliver to my address
    I called from a different number as my mobile flagged up the address last time. will be interesting if they get here on time with the right order this time.


    ETA:

    arrived 15 mins late and only luke warm.. guess they didnt learn much since last time..

    Not that desperate.... No-one even replied to my message asking to visit the 3 in one "town" on the same day.

    Anyone have a contact email for who would be best to contact BARE about carrying out an assignment that I don't quite meet the criteria for? (8months too young!)

    OH! and if there is an easy way to record a phonecall on an android phone (Samsung galaxy s2) so that I can try their phone jobs please let me know :P - I'll probably work it out from google though.

    Is the amount of reimbursement for these visits shown on the Shopper Log in Pounds or Euros? I always thought everything was shown in Euros with Bare, but the amount is lower than it should be so I can only assume it's showing in Pounds. Any ideas?

    Everything is in Euros, if the amount is low it's because they are trying it on.
