    They ask if you don't scan anything that you should just scan your clicker each week so they know you just haven't forgotten to transmit. I would think if you ask to pause they will remove you from the panel.  Remember you only need to send 1 receipt to receive your extra points so you could just scan 1 shop to get points.
    I didn't shop this week. I was going to shop today but my neighbour went for me so I will be able to transmit my clicker but no receipt. I remember when I had a baby and wasn't shopping properly that they flagged me and said they would cancel my account if I didn't start shopping properly

    I’ve never transmitted a single receipt. When they first started it, I didn’t have a camera ‘phone so couldn’t do it.
    I just transmit my barcodes each week.

    I didn't do any shopping last week but still connected my scanner to transmit. They gave me the usual 1,100 points but as I hadn't uploaded a receipt I rightly didn't get the 500 points for that.

    Interesting. I assumed that you had to do a minimal amount of shopping to collect the 1,100 points.

    Same here, I was doing it before I had digital camera, so never went down that road even when offered & stuck to bar codes only

     No that is not correct, I  did have an email sometime back that stated even if you have not bought anything during a week they still wanted you to transmit and you would  be rewarded.  I got the impression that unlike Consumer Pulse if it went on for any length of time they would ask for the book & scanner back and you would be removed from their data base

    Been having problems for a few weeks on Microsoft's Edge, though if I do it through Chrome and one set of receipts at a time it seems to work - chrome gives an upload status in the bottom left hand corner so I can at least see something is going on, whereas Edge gives me sweet FA!
