    No, I think it’s just the technology again. I’ve had the same email invite today as you . For an unaddressed mail survey I have already accepted. 
    So I accepted it again just to be on the safe side.
    Same here! Then a reminder with the CDM survey to complete yesterday's as late....which was not showing yesterday! 
    I keep getting a notification to return transponders but I am up to date and resting.
    Same here! Really think the right hand doesn't know what the left hand is doing.
    & me. I suppose it’s easy for them to send generic messages to everyone🤷🏼‍♀️

    Personally I think it’s a shame they do not, for whatever reason, target their notifications. It’s like crying wolf, after a while everyone will take the notifications less seriously as they are usually irrelevant.

    I think if it is not automated they don't have a scooby doo.

    A few weeks back, Spectos invited me to UA.  I passed as I'm on holiday for half of the expected period.   Last week, they invited me again for the same period and today, I get another request telling me they need more people and they are asking me as a valued panellist.  Well - I'm still on holiday....   Wonder if they will have to rethink (offer more points) if this happens in other areas.
    Must be struggling to get people going by the problems reported here. £3 for 5+ weeks reporting is not worth the hassle.
    I agree and will think twice in future. It should be easy enough to do but is more confusing and taking longer than the two mins than the Kantar version took and they're so slow (or don't) answer queries.

    I now have the same items showing in Due and Items Received More Than Once - so could be due, duplicates or both!  I'm also in the fifth week of a survey unless I'm on a fresh back-to-back survey as previously suggested but no invite to confirm that. Maybe a new way of filling places, just auto enrolled!

    I did not get my points for my last UM.
    I am currently doing another stint & have deceided if no points this time I am doing no more UM.
    I dont have problems with CD & points are allocated correctly right after last entry completed.

    That's been my experience as well but as I'm resting and am so close to another reward thought this would get me over the line... :s

    Also on also only doing a survey to get over the line, hope this CD posts correctly as I still have a ticket revised from the last one not posting.

    with a few of us more interested to get over the line, maybe Spectos do have method in their madness.

    You could well have a point.
    As well as saving a months worth of stamps as you get none for the first month when you are 'resting' but still posting & receiving.  Mmmmmm.
