    They'll never correct it, just put it in the postbox on the bank hol, it just won't go anywhere.

    I posted this earlier in the thread, but I was scheduled to do my very first mailings on Xmas Day & Boxing Day; I emailed them & they said to just post as soon as I was able, so I did both the day after Boxing day (had a lot going on, of course!)

    As others have said, the post isn't going anywhere until then & as long as you record when & where you post that is what they check against, rather than whatever was instructed originally.

    I get the impression that is just a guide, to spread out what they monitor but really as long as you enter true information, it isn't that important to stick rigidly to the schedule. Posting at different times & wherever is convenient is absoutely fine.

    I have just received first mail to send out after being on
    Training for 6 weeks, and after reading these helpful
    posts on here that say you do not have to stick to the
    times to post as long as you follow the day, but do I
    have to put the correct time on the posting schedule
    Or put the time down that they say I have to post it
    Thank you

    always record the actual time you post the item online...

    The times that are allocated to to posting should be adhered to if you can but if you post outside of those times I believe you should record the actual time you post the item which may differ from the guideline...if that makes sense!

    So for example your schedule says post between 10-1...then you must try and post it then and log the time you posted it online...

    If you post the item at 8am instead of the timeslot allocated then you must log it in that it was posted at 8am.

    The purpose of the panel is to monitor the flow of post through the postal system so if you dont log the actual times that you post the item or you make it appear that youve posted it at a different time its not actually measuring the flow of post in an accurate way for the purposes of the panel.

    Yes, enter when you actually post the items.

    The tracking of the post is checked against what you enter, not the original schedule.

    (I'm not suggesting that everybody deviates too much from their posting plan, just saying that it doesn't matter if you do a bit. But it is important that the info you enter after posting is correct. If you don;t stick rigidly to the plan they are not going to complain. But if you lie about when & where you post that would muck up the system)

    I received my extra SMART today- just 1- after all their fuss and in a massive A4 envelope which required a large letter stamp/ frank, when it could've easily been fitted into a normal letter. I don't even need the darn SMART!

    I got one too. However, it is not showing on my online screen. So if it does not appear in a week they can have it back.

    My number came up today on the daily prize draw too. :j
