Got email today, saying being removed as royal mail may be aware i am in the survey. All down to damn postman i think, have had a few opened letters in the past

Flustratingly its probably not your fault in the slightest...

although let that be a reminder to all that you shouldnt be making it obvious that the letters you post are test items...so no dates,time slots or locations...even if you think its in code that no one else will understand...

....and if you use postit notes,please remember to remove them before posting...

Never wrote anything on the envelopes i sent. 2 of the posting packs I received had blatantly been opened by someone before it got to me. You can tell if it was caught in a machine or opened by hand, and defo by hand.

Had this trouble before and made complaints to the royal mail complaints.

Sorry I couldn't work out how people were thanking for posts but this advice was just what I needed, thank you!

I haven't read through this whole thread, just the last page or so so apologies if this has come up before.

I signed up to this postal thing years ago but at the time I seem to remember getting a reply saying they were not taking new people on.

Yesterday I received an email titled 'Quotas- postal survey Downstream Access' asking me to join a panel. It just seems odd after all this time and I wanted to know if this sounds legitimately like the scheme you guys participate in, or something else entirely?
Many thanks

That is something else, though it is in a similar vein and a lot of people who do this one are signed up to that one as well. It sounds all above board, though I'm due to start in January so can't say from personal experience. There's a forum topic on it here.

How would the survey people know though? did you report the opened letters?

I've also had a few of the small white envelopes partly opened, wasn't sure if that was on purpose.

Yesterday received another letter with the posting date and time on, all these don't help.

ive had a ew problems with the site running slow latelt and the only way I've now got it working up tp speed is by using IE with compatibility view.

It seemed to hang on dooor to door leaflet sureveys for me and not bw able to load all the images....I think it is a problem with their website rather than my particular computer but I was able to "work round" with changing to a different browser.

Currently IE is the only one it will work for me on....I also have access to AOL and google chrome but they also hang at various points on the website!
