I am having the same trouble as Petew below a couple of weeks ago . - I picked up what looked like a short quick webchat and then found a lengthy and horribly complex briefing note and a test so arcane it should be on the puzzle page.

Has anyone done GfK's webchat assignments? I can't get through the test, despite being pretty sure I've got the answers right.

(I do try to search to see if my questions have been answered before ..... because I would not want to annoy anyone....you know who you are:eek:.)

So, tempted to just chuck it back.

I've done that a good few times, and I tell them why as well, I can't pass their stupid test.

The questions and answers often aren't mentioned in the brief, and I've found they have contradicted themselves a few times too.

N.I.M

Or just coded the test REALLY badly

I've found it more a case of trying almost every option before it lets you pass the test. Reading the briefing notes won't help, the answers almost always contradict them. I recently did a covert visit and the answer in the test was overt or it would not work. Confused!!!

And why does it say check the coversheet when the coversheet isnt unlocked until you pass the quiz!!!! Really irritates me that one! Lol

My son does loads of work for them every month (age verification stuff). Totally different bunch of people. Names on every email, polite responses every time within minutes. Never query anything and good bonuses too. I would not believe its the same company as the idiots we get to deal with!

yeah the age verification people were really nice! While I was still 19 they often sent me emails with three figure bonuses to do roundtrips and offered accommodation and food for some of their slightly out of the way shops. It was amazing considering the shop itself would only take a max of 10 minutes!

I think GAP has paid, I have had it so you might have to email them but remember they pay a month behind and it's all July calls paid this month. August next month.

Thanks for that, this was for jobs I done in July so 'Should' have been paid in August, but will email them.
