...or at least I hope so!!
Found this on one of those sites which tells you all the best survey companies (http://www.whichsurveys.com if you're interested, but thats in another thread) and anyway I've signed up to this: https://rmselfrecruit.research-int.com/Questionnaire/qstIntroductionPrivate.aspx - can't see this particular one posted up anywhere on the forum unless it was a while back...?
Anyway, it looks like its basically a way to help Royal Mail check that their posties are actually delivering stuff - will be interesting for me as well, as I'm convinced my postie nicks all my freebies cos most of them don't show up! As far as I can tell, Royal Mail sends out tester mails to the address you provide and all you have to do is sign in to the website and tell them when said mail arrived, so they can see if the posties are doing their job. You also have to post out testers as well - they provide you with the necessary equipment for this at no cost (ie sending address, envelopes etc) You just have to fill out a short survey (above page links to it) so they can see if you're right for the panel I suppose.
On top of this, as the link says in point 2 - You will receive 18 first class stamps every month as a thank you for your involvement, as well as entry into daily prize draws.
A day or two after signing up I have received an email from them telling me they will be sending out my instruction pack shortly, and it all seems legit. Might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I can always do with stamps and it doesn't look like this will take up much time, also if it helps my rude, annoying postie get the sack I'm all for it
sorry bit evil but he is rubbish.
If anyone is currently taking part in this, or has in the past, it'd be good to know what you thought, and for those like me who haven't seen it til now, maybe its something you'll be interested in.

what reference code did you fill in
:eek:0 -

i have been with them for about a year, easy, not much hassle, you pick the postboxes as a rule they'll sometimes specify a post office for example but any post office of your choice, on average i send 3-4 letters a week and receive about the same amount i have also won the daily draws a couple of times, also at the end of last year they sent out diaries and limited edition stamp presentation packs.0

Sounds good.. Ill give it a go me thinks!
I have so many different posties in my area, I think a few of them are a little light-fingered especially when it comes to unregistered jiffy bags.
Generally I get most of my freebies, and ebay stuff etc, but there are times when ALOT of stuff goes missing... November last year, I ordered a few bits of ebay a few days between each other, from different parts of the country. Out of 6 items I got one, and that was sent registered post. I wasn't impressed.. But must admit it has got better since Xmas... hope the thief was given the boot!0 -

How about 1: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=597236&highlight=royal+mail+post+survey

Yes the company is ok, worked for them for about 6 months for 18 1st class stamps a month, £10 won in daily draw, free diary and presentation pack. Best thing though is to refer your friends by just emailing postal research with their details (obviously with their consent) and if after 3 months your friends are still working with them you receive £25 for each friend refered.0

Yeah sorry, i missed these - i'm pretty new so not 100% used to the site yet
Looks like some people (including me) haven't seen it before though :beer:
Also, the reference code it said to use on the website I found it on is RMWEB01, but it looks like you can just select any from the dropdown menu.0 -
