    Can I just ask is 'Gyp' actually... er... don't want to say the real name, would it rhyme with 'nap', by any chance?

    Just curious because I have recently registered with them and have spent ages going through the orientation tests on various different shops - which are long and involved. If this is the company I'm thinking of then I don't think I'll bother with them at all - they sound pathetic.

    It is and they are :rolleyes:

    I assume people are not say GAP because someone has decided it is not PC to slag them off on this forum. (I may be wrong though).
    IMHO if they or another firm are cr*p then they deserve the criticism.

    I'm reserving judgment until I get paid!! They are good to start with as the assignments don't take long and the questionnaires are easy to fill in. However if something goes wrong it REALLY goes wrong and their a nightmare to get hold of!!

    I'm awaiting payment from GAP this month but have a question about GFK.
    It has been my first month with them and wanted to know when they pay and if I will get an email to say I've been paid or not.

    It states on the brief that : Note you MUST NOT request this visit if you have worked on the last 4 waves of this job (approx. 4 months)

    Now does that mean you can only do one per 4 months or that if you have done the last 4 jobs you can't do this one?
    I did one last week so not sure if I can get this one or not?
    Thanks

    can I ask a question about RE? I signed up a week or so ago, but so far have had no assignments, and can't even see any assignments available when I search for them in other areas. Is there something obvious that I haven't done or do they just not like me?
