My UA has disappeared overnight….. was asked to continue but it’s now gone.
anybody else has the same?

Both my UA and CD have disappeared, which I finished weeks ago.  I am resting at the moment.  Still be asked to return transponders, which were sent weeks ago.

I think the transponder message is generic. I returned all the ones received & I've been credited for them all. However I too have a message which has been there for a week, reminding me to return transponders.

I have had this message for a month. It is not targetted. A waste of time.

I had 10 points added yesterday for a returned transponder, I have been resting since June and the app still says I have 2 to return and an outstanding item that should have been posted 29th December last year.

Stand 2.37m away (or 7' 9 ¼” if you're old). If you don't get it in in 3 tries, you don't get your 10 points

I think they always add one per week that is a fake item as a control, to make sure that the survey is being completed correctly. So if you only have one item showing per week, it’s likely to be a fake.

I think I know which one it is....  I've had the same picture in 3 UA surveys - a blue leaflet with international flags that seems to promote an exhibition on maps.  I haven't seen it - and I'm nerdy enough to have been interested!

I had that one too. As it appeared a number of times I tried without success to Google the supposed exhibition. So I tend to think those posters who've said Spectos include fake items as a validation process are correct.

Kantar always used to include fake leaflets, so Spectos are just carrying on. 

Most are pretty easy to spot, I currently have one showing for a Bosch product which costs 200 Euros and the website mentioned only ships to Austria & Germany so I can be pretty sure that leaflet isn't going to come through my door in northern England.

Yep - I've got that one showing this week.

I am doing both CD and UM surveys this fortnight.  Touch wood, both are working fine so far - although I have only received one of the pictured unaddressed items up to now.  Perfect timing as the payment for these will take me over the £25 for my next voucher.  I know there have been some issues with voucher choice, they better still be doing Amazon or I will not be happy.

I have posted a bundle today but was unable to scan the QR code as the corner of it was ripped off (not by me). Is there another way of inputting the posting details or is it an email to Spectos? Thank you

There is a bundle ID on your posting plan. Just type it in.
