    Interesting! I spent more than the reimbursement allowance on three projects and the figure shown is about 75% of what it should be. Oh good, another company to chase and a minimum of another month to wait to get my money!

    What I got paid was about right if you factor in a crap conversion rate. Without putting amounts on here it was about £2 less by the time it hit my PayPal in sterling from what it says the reimbursement is on my shop log. If the amount was in Euros It would be about £20 less by the time it got to me. Only other jobs they owe me for are from this month.
    Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk

    I have a Gap to do where I need to order an extra value meal. Do I actually have to ask for an extra value meal and then tell them what I want, or if i just order the food will it be the extra value meal price? I hope that makes sense.

    Just ask for the meal in the natural manner you normally would. Ask for the (insert specific burger here) meal please. That's it.

    Just say you want an X meal with X drink. No need to say extra value meal.


    Haha great minds etc!

    Thanks. I did think it would seem weird asking for an extra value meal and then ordering the burger I'd want.

    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.

    In the Play store, there are a couple of apps. I used one recently and you could email the recording to yourself. Very useful. Same phone as you.

    I have used the retailer before yeah but not this particular store. I don't think I'll get paid for it anyway cause even though I asked for a receipt I was only given a debit card receipt which doesn't have the info you need. Ach well.
