In that case I would think about reporting him/her as it is obvious that he/she is taking the mail home, unless you live in the sticks. If mail is being taken home, he/she may be trying to see what he/she could pinch. Ask yourself what reason is there to take mail home.

We don't live on the sticks , we are 5 houses off a road on a main road so we don't get it.
We always have our mail by van no matter which postie it is and if it's 5.30/6pm it's not always the same postie.

I wonder if they forget about us sometimes?

You could be right they may have forgotten but if you are that close to a main road I can't see why you don't get your mail at a reasonable time.

Not necessarily, a couple of times a few months ago our mail arrived at about 6pm, the postman was doing two rounds because they were short of posties through illness:D

From the website - looks like they're snowed out:

Due to adverse weather conditions there will be no prize draw today, but additional prizes will be given tomorrow.

From my 'Click this box if no R-number found' it looks like I will be receiving items from:

- Hillarys M3 DM
- Poetry Wrap Mailings

Does anyone one know what kind of things they send?

Thanks
Sunil

Don't know these 2 but I often receive items that are not on the list and have stopped receiving the Rugby magazine which was! So just watch your post and see what delights arrive. If you read through some of the posts, you will find these items come with many weird and wonderful subjects.

Dear Panellist,

We would like to make you aware of a new process which will slightly change the way you identify and enter RECEIVED items WITHOUT R Numbers.

This new process will start on 6th February 2009.

The old process used to involve you selecting "Click this box if no R-number found" and then either selecting the appropriate item from the list along with its issue date or choosing "Other". When "Other" was selected the system would give you a 4 digit number which you would write onto one of the yellow labels we supply and then stick to the item before returning it to us.

In the new process the need for "Yellow Label" no longer applies and Yellow Labels will no longer be used.

The new process is a lot simpler and will provide an easier way to correctly identify items without R numbers. We have outlined the process below:

<LI class=EC_MsoNormal style="tab-stops: list 36.0pt">

Identify that an item has no R Number <LI class=EC_MsoNormal style="tab-stops: list 36.0pt">Select "Click this box if no R-number found" from the data entry screen and click "Next" <LI class=EC_MsoNormal style="tab-stops: list 36.0pt">Use the images and information to correctly identify the item you have received and click "Select" <LI class=EC_MsoNormal style="tab-stops: list 36.0pt">Answer the rest of the questions as usual. <LI class=EC_MsoNormal style="tab-stops: list 36.0pt">If item is not shown, please click on "Please click here if the item you have received is not listed above or does not match those listed above" then click "Restart" and wait for a few days to see if it appears and enter it if and when it does appear. <LI class=EC_MsoNormal style="tab-stops: list 36.0pt">Once you have data entered items please return them to us in one of the large grey plastic pre paid return envelopes we provide.
[*]Any items which have your test initials on which you have not been able to identify after 3 weeks please also return to us using one of our pre paid return envelopes. You may notice that some test items have very similar front covers for every issue. Therefore it is really important to look for the unique identifiers to help you identify these items accurately. The details of the unique identifier you need to locate on each item can be found online in the "Detailing Text" section next to the image of the item. The unique identifiers could be:

<LI class=EC_MsoNormal style="tab-stops: list 36.0pt">

The date displayed on the item <LI class=EC_MsoNormal style="tab-stops: list 36.0pt">The issue number
[*]A unique code Unique identifiers can be found either on the front cover, the back cover, the address label or on the insert in cases where the test items are letters.
Please use the "Enlarge" function located underneath each image to help match the item and its identifier shown on the data entry site with the item you have received.
We have attached an example item and unique identifier for you to look at.
Please note, you may see images of test items you have already received and data entered using the old yellow label process. If this is the case, please ignore these items online and do not re-enter them. They will eventually disappear from your screens. Please only use the new process for items you have not already data entered.

Please continue to log into our data entry site to enter your items. From now on, you will notice the new screens when entering any received items without R numbers.

We have also attached updated training and guidelines to this e mail which should help walk you through the new process.

You may need software that will enable you to 'unzip' the attached files. If this is the case, you can download this software for free by going to the following webpage:
