    Do you mean when every other job in a long list is grey? I thought that's just to make it easier to read :confused:

    No, I think Timne means when the date is greyed out. It's VERY frustrating! :p

    I was just renewing my husbands car insurance and he needs business cover as he uses the car for work occassionally.
    Should Mystery Shoppers technically have business insurance?

    I suppose so yes as you're driving as part of earning money - this is potentially already included with your insurance; it is on mine (Direct Line)

    Yes because you are using the car for business purposes. It's worth having it for peace of mind should the worst happen.

    Hi All,

    Could someone please help. I have done a job on Saturday for Gapbuster and I'm not sure whether the pymt has been processed or if they've read my report or where to actually find feedback.
    Can anyone point me in the right direction?
    Thanks

    Yes, I've done one of the ones where you have to visit about 4 times and use various services.

    Definitely NOT worth the hassle unless you are intending to use their services. On the other hand, if the gym is in a convenient place, it's nice to have a swim (potentially) jacuzzi (ditto) and gym induction in smart surroundings, plus possibly a beauty treatment and nice meal. I intended to use the gym a lot more than I actually did, but still found the experience interesting. And I got a free rucksack with the gym name embroidered on it! :T But I did find it hard work for the money.

    Gap are simply appalling, they never give any:

    feedback (unless there is a problem). No news is good news!
    payslips
    indication of what the money in your bank is for.

    Make sure you have given them your details, and that you have scanned or faxed them any receipts they want, and eventually the money will suddenly appear in your bank account. If you did the job on Saturday, start looking on about 24th July........:o

    They should have sent you an email saying they had received the report....Did you get this? If so, you will be paid providing you completed the assignment correctly. Beware, they will try to get out of paying you for the slightest little thing, so always follow the brief exactly.:beer:

    Hiya.
    Yes I recieved an email saying that it had been recieved, but it also says this:
    ''However, the results have been sent to a pending database. An operator may be in contact soon to confirm, clarify, or obtain additional information. Please have the results readily available and don't forget to submit your receipt if one is required for your assignment. Failing to provide a receipt when required will result in you not be paid for that assignment and being blocked from completing additional assignments for us.''
    Nobodys been in contact yet though.....
