    I was given a phone in carry out visit to a pizza place by Gap and the paperwork gave a phone number for me to ring to order the food. It said if I phoned any other number, eg the advertised number I would not be paid. I phoned up the number they gave me and got some private individual, not the venue. So that was that! I couldnt do the visit as I would not be paid. I have emailed them to tell them as now my profile looks as though I have rejected the assignment. Furthermore I had to cook myself!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:mad:

    Grr how annoying!! I did the same assignment, but luckily for me the number worked (and was the same as the advertised number anyway)

    I've also got an assignment marked as "Rejected" on my profile which looks bad, but THEY changed the date without asking me first and I couldnt do the new date :mad: :mad:

  • I'm registered with TNS for online surveys, and love being paid in Nectar points as I'm saving them up for Christmas - how do I become a Mystery shopper with them as well?

    Can you be paid in cash?
    Noobie (not so :D) trying to make loads a dosh - please bear with all my questions :beer: Thanks :D


  • Noobies - the best company for noobs is probably TNS, as you can taste the waters without having to do your own tax, and they have a good range of assignments.

    I consider that my 'apprenticeship' was doing all sorts of MS in DIY stores etc. as well as food assignments, so I could find what was actually best for me.

    I found their link at the start of this thread, but I can't find the bit where you sign up on their website :confused:

    Does anyone know what Gapbuster consider to be a "session"??

    I just tried to do one of the client-specific certification tests, and got one question wrong - could kick myself but that's beside the point - and it says I only have 3 attempts to get it right in "one session"

    Does that mean if I log off and log in again, I can try again - or do I have to wait until tomorrow - or what???

    Thanks

    I'm 99% certain that you can just do it again without even having to log-off.
