    Raise an enquiry - put 'urgent' in the title. Tell your friend to email them as well (via the enquiry thingy) and demand payment as she organised her life round it! :D

    I think more likely, if you have done quite a lot, they just want to diversify their shopper base. (Heaven knows why, as they find these assignments quite difficult to fill IMHO).

    Either that, or you were caught on camera doing something inappropriate - you're not the Phantom Clown Stripper, are you? :D

    hahaha! Atleast then that would be a reason!

    Just think its odd they have done that when i seem to be the only one who does the ones near me. They ring me constantly near deadline days asking me to them so just dont understand! Oh well, at least il stay slim! lol

    Grass roots get in touch with you so it depends whether you meet their criteria and what they have avaliable in your area.

    They send you and email and you have to ring an automated phoneline - if you are the first person through then you get the job

    GRG don't seem to have had anything for me for a while - last month they offered me about 12 visits! (a lot, for them)

    I'm booked in for 3 of the "Bakery" assignments for Gap, and I did actually go and do a shop based on the limited information available. When you try to express the assignment, even that doesn't make sense, with answers to questions that just do not match.

    I've already sent a message via enquiry, and also direct via email, but that was 36 hours ago, and I've heard precisely nothing!

    Gap are useless at communicating - they take an age to reply to anything and usually when it's too late!

    I agree with the questions for the "bakery" type shops, they question don't even relate to that kind of shop. I have 3 too - this is going to be fun :mad:

    I've now managed to print off the paperwork for the "bakery" assignments, however, I haven't tried to express until I return home.
