I keep getting emails from RM saying I 'may' have posted out of my area and so can't include the test items in their results. It's really annoying because I always post them in my allocated post boxes in my area. Does anyone else get these emails?0

I used "ethics" in my first post on this but actually that was being gentle about what was being suggested. I was really writing about what is lawful. Trying to re-use postage stamps is attempting to steal from the Royal Mail.
It is a pity if someone thinks stealing is ethical (in this "area" or any other).
I've made my point as best I can and will leave it there.0 -

I think we have well and truly heard your stance on the matter. As has already been stated people are best left to make their own decisions in life0 -

Thanks Weegie, I've emailed them too with no replies and I must admit i'm getting a bit fed up of it, especially when it's the same date they are querying again and again. Well at least I now know it's not just me that gets them.0 -

Although this was a large scale fraud (£639.00)! (you can see this on eBay where you can buy a huge pack of unfranked stamps, they get away with it by saying that it is an offence to re-use, but the amount the stamps go for people are obviously re-using them!)
Whereas the odd one or two unfranked re-used is still the same offence but not likely to be prosecuted for or even noticed:)"Sealed Pot challenge" member No. 138
