    Just a quick question re Gap, I have just done my first ever assignment with them and when I tried filling in the forms it kept coming back with faults, has this happened to anybody else before?

    Also, I did manage in the end to send it off and shortly after got an automated mail stating that it had been received, however it had been sent to a pending database and somebody may be in contact.
    Does this mean I have done it wrong and will they definately be in touch?

    It may mean that they have picked up that somewhere you have not scored the shop very highly (capital offence! lol).

    So, sometimes they call you to clarify (i.e. repeat yourself a couple of times) what you reported. But, I have had these and the majority they do nothing at all. Everything is probably fine. :D

    Josie as you know I now work part time in Asda. It is a crime punishable by death not to wear your name badge. We all have them pinned on to those dangly things round our necks. I like it as I now find I have regular customers who are getting to know me and this way they call me by name.

    It is astonishing the things I pick up from customers like the lady yesterday who is a trolley dolly. Did you know when a plane has a possible crash landing and they might have to evacuate via the shute the passengers have to discard all sorts of things...like their false teeth.

    Now Josie bet you didn't know that.:rotfl:

    Sounds like you're getting daily entertainment then, at least too!

    I can only assume this supermarket does not have a policy of name badges, as none of them wore one. Oh well, will just have to wait and see if they pay up. It's my 1st one for OC, too.

    Thanks very much to the two of you, nice to know that I am not alone, I thought I was going to loose it over the KS# on the till receipt, still I will just have to wait and see.
    I have to say, I love reading all the comments on this forum, so many good ideas on all aspects, now all I need is a bit more gumption

    No, that's just a standard response and doesn't mean they're going to query it, necessarily.

    I've always got on ok with Gap, although sometimes they do query some funny things, like at the pizza place for a dine in, they asked me - "you say it took longer than x mins to get your drinks - how come?" I put because they were slow! :rotfl: I did also add it was fairly busy, but there were plenty of staff on, so shouldn't really needed to have taken that long.

    Can anyone advise me on Bare registration. Their site is doing my head in. I did the test and got a code but don't know where to put the code. So my profile is still showing 1 test to be completed. Just done the flaming test AGAIN and still cant see where to put the code.It said something like take a note of this code and click away this window.

    Aaaarggghhh:mad:
