Not sure why you are surprised, they have dropped the fees for pretty much everything they do. Good on them I say, people are still taking the crappy stuff they have and they are making more money. Expect the fees to drop again to the point they can't shift them or the quality gets that bad they have to increase the fees

Loathe though I am to admit it BUN, your totally right. No point railing against them doing it, ifpeople take the work they'll keep doing it.

Just wondering if anyone has been paid by Gapbuster for their July assignments? Seems a bit late in the month which may be due to the bank holiday but I easily worry that these guys won't pay me.

Ignore the gap website, they told me that they pay on the final day of the calendar month but more often than not I find they pay straight into the account via instant payment usually a day or 3 before. Officially it's the final day of the month unless they state something went wrong on their website. HTH

My opinion is I have bigger things to worry about other than if someone has breached the confidentiality agreements. It's their problem not mine, I play by the rules.

to clarify they werent breaching confidentiality
it was just listing the companies they do work for so like an online cv
i agree def bigger things to worry about
it was just a more general question as to what people do or dont publicly say about themselves and their roles.

If you dont like how a company pays, don't work for them. If you think the fees are too low and you are worth more, don't work for them. This is major part of the concept which is self employed. If you keep paying me late you can B*gger off I don't need you and in sure you don't really need me.

If you are willing to ignore companies being useless (TNS) but find jobs convenient (remember no MS job is easy) then stick with them and shut the hell up. (this may also apply to me.)
