    When I load the page to login to Gap, under where it says 'Welcome Shoppers', there is a red box stating "Cookie is disabled in your Internet browser. Please enable cookie in your Internet browser ."
    I've gone to my Internet Options( IE version10), and changed the Cookies setting to "Accept all Cookies" under the privacy tab. But this still doesn't seem to be enough. I am using Windows 7 on my PC.
    Can anyone tell me what I need to do!!

    Thanks

    I have this very same problem on my laptop. When I try and log in using IE I get that message. When I use firefox, no problem.

    Wouldn't mind but I can login on IE on my notebook and PC, with the same settings :mad: however they have an older OS. Looks like it's IE 10 on Windows 7 causing the problem.

    Is anyone doing sending things for GfK? Do you know if the cost of sending is on top of the stated fee please? I find their breifings really hard to get my head round without reading them over and over and now I have confused myself. (I just found the email about these in my spam box by the way. )

    I am receiving things for GFK. Is this the same project?

    Sorry with my late alert, hope I have not woken anyone up. Apologies if I have.

    PS. When will these companies learn? When a shop closes, don't keep putting it up for me to pick! You will have to pay me for doing sweet f/a! This is the same phone shop I have picked up from TNS/BARE and GFK today and it shut down like 5 months ago. So that's just over half a ton for simply emailing them and telling them it's no longer open :D

    According to an email I have, the cost of sending is also reimbursed. Last time I did something with a cost to be reimbursed (last year sometime) I just added the amount to my claim - not sure this is correct but it worked.

    Don't forget to include a little gift (small packet of sweets or similar) to brighten up the day of your fellow MSer !

    I thought of doing this - not sure I'll have time now though! Lovely idea :)

    anyone seen the MF/RE perfume visit? £10 TOWARDS a minimum of a £20 spend.....no thanks! Be out of pocket to get a perfume (that i may/may not want depending on what the assistant recommends?) I can get cheaper on ebay?

    Anyone know if you can (secretly) return the item afterwards as that is the only way i'd do it, especially with no fee being offered.

    Intrigued by the spate of MF Wife Beater visits. Can't believe the reimbursement comes close to covering the vile stuff in any of the listed locations.

    Are the wildly expensive handbags on react still buy and return? My credit card won't take that mush strain - even briefly!

    there's an australian bar visit or a beer visit, im assuming you mean the beer visit. On the shopper notes it shows an example receipt for £4.05! with only 3.50 reimbursement on the visit??? hypocritical much?
