    Why do so many folk in life winge and winge and winge. You all have choices in life. If you don't like something then change it. Stop doing it, give someone who wants to do it a chance. Vote with your feet.

    £5 incentive for logging a few bits of post for 12 days (2 weeks) is fair I feel. It takes all of 30 seconds okay maybe 40 seconds to click the buton, type the amount of post received, click on the no button to say no misdelivered post and done. Easy!! It really is nothing.

    Even if it took folk one minute a day that's 12 minutes of your time for £5.00. And if it takes folk even longer then you are doing something very wrong!!! lol :rotfl:
    The art is not in making money,
    but in keeping it!!!

    I am fairly new to this, and I have just prepared my items to post next week. For the last 3 weeks at least every item I have prepared has been ammended to 'no longer a Smart item'. Consequently I now have 12 smarts in stock, no manage my smarts option on my page, and have had no requests to return then.
    Time to phone them do you think??

    Yes give them a ring or you can e-mail them also

    I'm more concerned that someone always pops up to defend a cut in their wages. The numbers may be small from £6 to £5 but it's still a pay cut. Sir Martin Sorrell boss of WPP which owns Kantar (who run the postal survey) is getting a £6.8m pay package this year up 60% from last year - so this small cut is contributing to that increase. This is an exact reflection of what is happening in this society today - the rich are getting richer at the expense of the poor.

    What gets me the most is people whinging on about people whinging. And don't get me started on people who whinge about people whinging on about people whinging.
    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.
  • Love your signature StumpyPumpy, one of my pet hates as well!

    I play on bingo sites(Free games as I try to make money not lose it), it always makes me Grr when people say how much money they are loosing!

    Can someone please tell me what is the procedure when you are unable to post the item on the specified day ? I have a funeral to attend in another part of the country so even if I took it with me I could not post it locally.....Thanks

    Just been on the News section of the survey site. They're starting an extra survey (like the correctly delivered one) with a £5 reward for checking, what they call, 'Unaddressed Mail' i.e the leaflets etc that the postman sometimes delivers with the post.

    Good news is that you can still do this if you're a 'resting' panelist - sounds good to me :j

    They are also asking for us to record more post received remember for no incentive at all ie non Royal Mail items. Is anyone doing this?

    No way - I don't see it as any part of my rôle to subsidise Martin Sorrell through Kantar.

    Isn't £6.8m enough for him? :p
