The books I get seem to all be really thick & don't fit in the post box.
Wish they would send more DVD's!

Yes - I packed up two books today for posting, thought they might just fit in the postbox but not a chance, fortunately my post office is just down the road from the main postbox I use.

Worth downloading the Ziffit app and seeing if you can earn some money from the books.

This is a good shout, thanks for sharing. I’ve scanned all my stash of books to be returned, 7 of them total £3.10 👍
The others I’ll post back.

I’m finding that they’re posting 2 books together, 1 thin and 1 thick which are too thick to fit in a post box - I’m having to send them back individually.

Don't you just pack them side by side instead of on top of each other ???

I should but I always end up ripping the packaging they come in so can’t return 2 books in it.

I’ll need to try opening the packaging better.

I think it depends how they get folded up and taped round whether you can get it open easily.   My last mailbag came in a large grey sack which was rather easier to open, invert and hold ready to send a pile back.

Feeling left out 😕 haven’t received any books/packages yet! Been on the panel since December

When I was with Kantor I never had an issue with expected UA leaflets being delivered. However my failure rate with Spectos is really high. Not sure it the issue is with them or more of a local one.

Haven't done a UA survey with Spectos yet, although they did ask me a few weeks back but it never happened.  
Did loads with Kantar over the years and had quite a few where I received nothing whatsoever during the duration of the survey.  Did email them at the time and they said not to worry about it,  not that I was.

Think I might take a look at the Ziffit app - I have parcels of books coming in faster than I can package them and send them back.  Had 4 parcels this week alone.

Seems a lot of work for little reward.

Same here, on the panel since autumn last year and only received bits of polystyrene. But had several parcels with books in them to post...
