    Hiya, I don't use the larger size stamps that they have been sending us recently, just wondered if everyone else has been using theres, and if they haven't what have they been doing with theirs? (Don't be rude?! ) x

    I thought it was money saving idea from Royal Mail!

    I assume RM provide the stamps at no cost to Kantar and therefore the "cost" to RM is when they are used. The large size first class stamps aren't used frequently (not in my household anyway) and certainly not in the proportion of 1:3 which is how they are supplied. So, stamps sit around without being used because it would seem a waste to use them for ordinary size mail. And if you do use them for the regular size mail they have supplied the mail service for four envelopes instead of the previous six.

    If you are never going to have a 'large letter' to send then I would suggest just using them on your ordinary sized letters. Royal Mail don;t care if you put too much postage on the letter, its only of concern when you put too little on it.

    I just managed to sign up for this and will hopefully be getting my welcome pack soon. I worked for RM up until 2005 as a customer service manager so hope that there is no problem with me doing this survey?

    I mailed them & asked if they would give me the 18 first class stamps instead, but they said not as people had asked for the 4 large stamps - I didn't :confused: I usually use these at Christmas time, or put them on a parcel.

    The 4 large stamps have come in handy when I have had the ocassionaly large birthday card and I usually use them on jiffy bags that I'm sending but like others have said I've ocasiionally used them on normal letters just because at the time they were the ones I had on me.

  • I had my stamps in yesterdays envelope from the survey but I only received 12 first class - no large stamps. I'm almost sure this was all I received in December as well. Has this happened to anyone else, are research international cutting back?

    Kind regards

    I received 12 first class, 12 first class christmas stamps and 4 large first class stamps in the December pack. Think the christmas ones were a bonus for a limited few.

    I would e-mail them and ask about the 4 large first class stamps.
