    I have just received my posting pack for next week. The outer envelope is torn and wet (despite no rain at all today) and 3 of the 4 envelopes for posting are very bent and water damaged.
    Do I report this as my postings will be damaged before I put them in the box?

    you should really report the package to kanter as damaged, but they may remove you from the survey as your address has been comprimised. x

    I've just received my posting pack for week commencing 16th July, but i've not had one for 9th July yet. Does this mean it's been lost or could it still turn up?

    They seem to be way behind schedule. I haven't received the posting pack for next week or the following week. And I had to call up to query my missing Correctly Delivered Survey voucher from the end of May!!!

    Just out of curiosity, how many items do people handle a week on average?

    At first I only had a couple a week, now, two months in I am handling on average 10-12 items per week which seems rather excessive. I know that the area I live in has a terrible postal service but this seems well over the top.

    :eek::eek::eek::eek:

    I only ever have to post 5 a week max. Next week I have 2 and the week after 1.

    12 does seem quite a lot. Is that every week and over 6 days?

    I think I got the wrong end of the stick. I rad it as you post 1 a week. However, I think you mean receive after reading mum2one's comment.

    I receive about 3 items a week average.

    Assume you mean items you receive from other panel members? I don't really keep track of how many I receive but I've had as many as three received in one day (one of them was a day late though). I'll admit I'm finding the survey to be more work than I thought but it gets easier with practise - I haven't sent or entered any mistakes as yet but I've had to catch myself a couple of times. Worst thing I sometimes do is rip the envelope too badly so its hard to read the postmark - I sometimes forget that its not my own mail, lol!

    If you mean items from Royal Mail for you to send out then, yes, 10-12 in a 6 day period sounds excessive - the most I have had to post in one week is 7 items and the least is 2-3 items.

    I received my posting pack for w/c 9th July yesterday (Wednesday) - I have noticed that the packs are arriving later though as they used to arrive at least 7 days before the first day of the week, they are now arriving midweek...

    I really wonder about the point of reporting holidays. OK, so you don't have to post anything, but I was away Monday to Monday, involving 2 weeks of postings, and I had recieved 3 items when I came back and 2 more this morning.

    Don't worry about it and just enter them with date unknown and it's fine.
