Come visit the 'gaff' and have your say on the SR program

rory_gg

Hey Supers,

I'm sorry to say to those of you who wanted to come into the gaff on these days but unfortunately, we will have to reschedule the workshops for the new year.

The main reason for the reschedule is that we just didn't get the numbers we wanted in the poll to get a fair representation for all Supers for the workshop to be affective. We want all levels of Supers from all 3 tiers (apprentice, expert and master) to come to the workshops so we get a fair reflection of everyone's opinions.

What we will do instead then is after the new year put forward some new dates. One will be at the weekend and one will be may be either a midweek day or evening. I will post in the SR forum giving everyone a fair amount of time to see the post. For those who don't use the forum and to encourage everyone to use the forum we will run a comms via email about the visit to the gaff.

rory_gg that's a good idea as it gives a broader chance for members to come .

Is this not something that could have been done using video calling?

As giffgaff doesn’t support conference calls, and part of the idea is to have a discussion with SRs of all levels of SR together, I don’t see how a video call (one-to-one) would replace a Discussion round a table!

Awesomeness! 🙂

jesi23 I meant a video conference call using the likes of skype as a group call rather than a 1 to 1

jesi23 I realise that giffgaff don't have the video calling but there's such a thing called WhatsApp I know really what 80% people got WhatsApp plus it's free
giffgaff need to stop ignoring us with this adult content cos we've been on about this I've been with giffgaff 7 or 8 year still getting nowhere are timer stop messing about get it sorted don't forget you have to take a box to prove that you're 16 to earn money so why can't they do that with the adult content of the joke

This a great idea and maybe some kind of online option for members who cant make the HQ

josup63

bluemoonbaz exactly what I'm suggesting

Not going to lie I find the SR program a tad confusing. It says people I’ve referred have made their second or third top up. But when they made their first I got £5 straight to my PayPal, but for these I’ve seen nothing. I originally thought it would all just be payback points. Then I thought “oh no this is special and gets paid out immediately to PayPal” and now I just don’t know what to think! Haha!

some of us apprentices dont get any recruits at all now since the banners disappeared
so why bother

ijustcantdoit

mcilwraith yes I miss the banners

rory_gg

mcilwraith ijustcantdoit bobrobinson I have asked about this for you all. This option will come back, however, the teams involved with implementing the banner option on the community are working through a backlog of work so it will take time. As this platform is relatively new there is so much work going into fixing and improving it. In the mean time I would advise using the share your page URL.

bobrobinson

Yep i miss the banners too. iv had nothing since the new platform has started.
I know we can put the address on our profile but i dont think that is helpfull.
All the best Bob

there should be something for super recruiters. Like £2 or £3 on activations Atleast for a month Every year to keep them working hard in the field

jason1973tess What's the problem your having with regards to the adult content??

jb29

Any update on the new dates for the SR programme meeting ? Or the suggestions for an online discussion/ conference call options ??

Happy new year anyway Giffgaffers, hope you all had a great time over the holidays, enjoyed your payback with a celebratory tipple or three 😄 and i hope 2020 is an amazing year for all.

All the best 👍

rory_gg

jason1973tess This is one for the main Community if I'm honest. Did you submit any ideas you may have to the Labs?

https://labs.giffgaff.com/

To the best of my knowledge, from when I worked as an agent , the current removal of adult content is a process employed by Telefonica but we would feed back to them via the labs and then it would be their call.

Hi Supers,

Thanks for all your feedback, but save some for when we get together 😆

I am meeting up with our comms team very soon to get an email slot so I can try as best I can to make sure that all Supers see the invitation. I want to give you all good time too to rearranging current plans or to plan ahead for your journey. Once I get a date that suits then I will post the invite on the forum first, followed by an email as I'm aware not everyone uses the forum.

I will always post to the forum first so I always recommend coming on when you can so you don't miss out on any updates or delays or anything SR related.

Also; just to explain to those of you who are asking for a conference call as you may not make it in to the office. Laura and I both believe that it is important for us to meet face to face to get the best out of this exercise. With this being said, this isn't to say that we won't listen to or help anyone who comes into the office. The Super Recruiter email address is there for anyone to ask for help or suggest ideas etc as well as the forum (you can post privately or publicly).

Have a nice weekend!

Best wishes,
Rory
