  • Do we still get 200 points for each trip to the post office to post parcels? 
    I've posted parcel the last 3 weeks and have 5 to post over the next 2 weeks! Is it just me or are they asking us to post more parcels nowadays. I've never had this many to post during previous waves  :#
    Thanks

    I have requested they send me a form to swap twice but it never arrives ☹️ When I rang customer services I then received a letter asking when I had sent my stamps in 🙈
    I too asked twice. 
    Ended up getting someone to print for me.

    It is now 200 points per trip.

    Since it used to be 200 points per parcel plus some profit on the postage, I’m no longer prepared to do it. Kantar seemed quite happy when I told them I couldn’t post parcels.

    Yes 200 points per trip. It must vary as I've had far fewer to post this time around. One sack per month with only one parcel in each time!!

    TNS seem to think none of us would need the "more than 200" form.

    Easier to get Royal Mail to post you a form and envelope. They come within 2 days.

    But Busylizzie said the have done that twice and nothing has arrived.  So the simplest way would seem to be print one off, go to the local delivery office or get one from the TNS link.

    All I can say is that I have found the Royal Mail swap out service exemplary. Three forms and envelopes received within 2 days and my first swap out took 4 days. The envelope they provide has the full address on too.

    I'm glad I got mine in early - got the form from RM same week and turned round in a week.

    I've just ordered one on the Kantar link to see how long it takes...  I don't need one but I'll be passing it on.

    Well - I am astounded at some people here announcing they had hundreds of stamps to be swapped.   I know that people don't use stamps as much as in previous years but it then begs the question of why are you doing a job that is primarily paid in stamps if you don't want the stamps?  Or if you don't use the stamps - why aren't you selling or donating them as you go?  It doesn't seem very MSE to be putting in time and effort if the reward is just shoved in a drawer...

    I need to think of something new here...
