    I remember seeing on this thread that someone asked for a statement of what they had been paid, so i have asked them to tell me what jobs i have been paid for the last few months. It is nearly time for the tax form stuff, but i can't say i have/have not been paid for a job by them if i don't know!

    I did this a while ago but it was as I had a query for pay not for tax and only for one month. I don't suppose there would be any harm in asking though if you wanted a whole years worth. The most helpful person is Matt so if you get him he might help. I think if loads of people ask they might issue one of their 'no we won't do this' comments, so get in early! I would suggest though keep a record of all jobs as you go along for both tax and checking you're paid the correct amount reasons.

    Tigergold I had a phone one where they didn't fill in a form too. If I have a shop where I know I need to collect something but they don't appear to be filling this in, then I try and get them to write something down even if in my case it was just the person just circling the appropriate phone in the catalogue and writing down the price, that way you have something at least.

    Any chance anyone could help me with Gapbuster cos I emailed them (it was quite important) like last week and no reply... I tried the generic email, online form and personal email of someone who has emailed me before.

    Does anybody have a better way of contacting them like knowing somebody and might be able to help me out?

    Cheers

    anyone done any pizza ones With Gapbuster. Just done one and not sure if done it right. It said you have to order a medium pizza with a minimum of 2 toppings. Does this mean the pizza you order should have 2 toppings or do you have to get 2 EXTRA toppings on top of the pizza you order. I didnt get 2 extra toppings but the pizza did have 2 toppings and now not 100% sure iv done it right. Hope i have now done right as spent quite abit and do not want to lose out.

    GAP do give you a breakdown for tax purposes. I have asked them, and they got back to me straightaway.The photo of the staff is hilarious. Bless them.

    PHEW. Another question it also asks for receipt. Think i only have the bill - the one they give before you pay. Thought that was the receipt at the time but on the assignment paper it asks for telephone number so that made me think its only a bill. If i upload that do you think it will be sufficient or will i need the one which shows you have paid and your change.
  • I think I used that when i did pizza shop as we left money and went!! But then I haven't been paid from them yet!

    GAP are notoriously poor at replying to e-mails so you just have to try a number of times annoyingly.

    BTW where is the photo?? I couldn't see it on the site.

    It's somewhere on the way in to searching for jobs - on the shopper messageboard.

    Good to know they will give a breakdown for tax!
