Much the same as anything else. You click on the bit about items you've received, click that it hasn't got an R number, then it asks which mag and the date of it and follow the instructions. General consensus seems to be that you send back the cover and the envelope at the end of the week like anything else and read/recycle the mag yourself. That's what I do anyway and it seems to be ok.

Have a good read through both the training material (re entering received items) or the FAQ - it's all there. And RI are really helpful if you ring them too.

I've been doing this for 2 weeks, but got an email from them last night saying that I was no longer required as they were full in my area, but they'd put me on their reserve list. Pooh. I quite enjoyed doing it too.

I'm hoping to move soon to a completely diferent area. Will I be able to rejoin, providing that area isn't full too?

Yeah you might find that you will be back on again, worth a try!

I have always sent back the entire thing as it states to send back everything, so they get the blank paper back as well. Having said that, Caterer/hotelkeeper and rugby world isn't exactly my sort of magazine anyway :rotfl:

Someone else on here had been told by RI to just send back the envelope and cover of magazines to save /weight postage. I've always done it and haven't been told not to. The mags I get aren't exactly my cup of tea but actually are quite enlightening, make me feel quite angry to read behind the scenes of marketing and how to pull the wool over the eyes of consumer while pretending to offer better service - it's a whole other world!!

lol, i didnt know you just had to send the front of the mag back, ive always sent it all back!!! ive been with em about a year now , sometimes they take the Pxxs with the postings but what the hell!! if ya going past anyway!! i have loadsa stamps now ideal for sending parcels for ebay or christmas cards at the moment, and the little bonuses of LTSV come in handy!!

Why should there be - you are also a customer. Anyway as I remember I don't think they ask you about employment so go for it. I won't have to buy any stamps for the Christmas cards this year so has been well worthwhile.
