    Yes you have to use post boxes that you register but within your post code area and you can choose up to 10 boxes. I do believe once you choose the boxes you cannot change these so choose wisely... lol

    Just got accepted to the panel, and got my mailing pack yesterday, ready for sending my first ones next week - does anyone know of a website which shows the geographic area a postcode covers?

    Come on people, it's not difficult: lose means to be unable to find, loose means not being fixed in place. So if you have a hole in your pocket you might lose your loose change.

    I thought i'd get the answer straight from the horses mouth as they say and ask.

    Here's my question to them and their email replies.

    I have a query about the test items we are getting.
    One of the questions we answer when registering the test mail is:
    'Do any of the following numbers appear on the envelope or wrapper'
    709
    709000
    None of these
    etc

    What if the number is on the inside of the mail but can be clearly seen through the wrapper or through the envelope window?

    Would this still count as it is clearly visible?


    Reply from Survey Team:
    Yes if it is clearly visible then count it as a yes

    My Reply:
    So if it is hidden inside with no way of being seen from the outside until you open it then it's a No.
    And if you can see it from the outside before opening it's a Yes.
    Have I surmised rightly?

    Reply from Survey Team:
    Yes spot on
    Many thanks for checking this out.

    ==============

    So now we know!
    Hope that helps any of us that have wondered!

    And also if only the first half of the number appears i.e. you have 70900
    then you would click on 709 is another query that I had answered

    The mess up with the holidays seems to have happened to a lot of people including me. They just don't seem to be able to get it right!
