    I have not done the mail monitoring & posting for years now, I struggled to fit it in with working when they started wanting you to post at more specific times.  I have regularly done the correctly delivered surveys, several times a year, depending on how quick I am to sign up. 
    They regularly invite me and have invited me to the monitoring & posting again, but I have now noticed they say in the email: "Please note that we will stop contacting you after 5 consecutive invites that you have declined or not responded to."
    I always respond and say not available, but am concerned if I keep declining will they stop me doing the correctly delivered or remove me totally from the panel.  Does anyone know if I can just the correctly delivered?
    In short no you cant. 
    They will remove you as stated.
    Is that for all surveys though incl CD? I've done CD in the past but this is my first time doing the postal part as I've never been invited before.

    Letter from Kantar today telling me the Stamp Holdings Survey is being dropped.  Ah well, at least I'm £10 up for 15 mins work each quarter.   
    Letter also invites me to make sure I'm registered if I want to do other surveys - but even though it's more convenient now I'm WFH; all your tales of hassle with parcels and mailbags make me think it's not worth tryig again.  Obviously, I'd do Correctly Delivered and Undelivered if offered - wouldn't everybody?
    I need to think of something new here...

    I currently have 20 books of stamps, I struggle to give them away !!
    Try selling them on eBay if you can't use them.  Aim for 1/2 to 2/3 face value and of course, you have stamps to post them out with....

    If you send birthday cards to people it,s always nice to drop in a spare book of surprise stamps.  Most people have a use for them at some point

    So much for stint coming to an end....just received 2 more SMARTs through the post (one 'smart' business glued the sheet with the R number to the front of the envelope) and another letter to post mid-June. 
    I got a glued up one this morning too.  I had to rip the envelope and the A4 paper so I could get to the smart and also read the info.  My stint is due to finish soon but the test items keep coming  :pensive:
    I believe the “glued up” ones (usually envelopes with windows) are prepared by TNS then sent to the posting hubs / businesses include in their mail.

    They are the ones that say on the sheet with the R number “sent on behalf of TNS” etc

    Hi. Does anyone have any links to join this panel or any similar ones?
    I was part of a similar project with a German company, but they didn’t need me anymore.

    I put a book of stamps in my Christmas cards to immediate family members - given the price of stamps it is always much appreciated!

    Just done a check of my stamp inventory and have in value about £200.00 worth. I am happy to keep them as they do go  up in value.
