    Hello ‘resting people’ 👋🏻
    Have any of you received (out of the blue while resting) a packet from Spectos to log as received and with a transponder to return?
    Or am I special? 🤣
    No. Not sure I would agree either unless they sent some Christmas stamps with it.
    Brilliant answer. May be it was lost in the post since before you were resting?

    No, not me! 
    Nor me. Still waiting to hear when I can start!

    Received a bundle today to be posted on 29 December. Included in the envelope was a Christmas 2023 Presentation Pack which included 5 stamps. I had already received the 8 “normal” Christmas stamps last week.  Since starting with Spectos in March this year I have now received 4 Presentation Packs, I am not complaining  :)
    Previous posting plan states please find your stamps for December. Today’s plan says please find your December Quarterly Incentives.

    So you have been on the live panel for more than 6 months? They can't be believed sometimes when they trot out excuses for not giving Christmas packs to everyone..

    I hadn’t thought of that 😂
  • What are quarterly incentives??  
    CD completed and points credited immediately (the second I completed data entry for the last day) which is great.

    No quarterly incentives for me ??? , first I have heard of it . Also nothing on the app mentions it under Rewards .
    They are always quick giving the rewards for CD .
    Wait ages for the Unaddressed though .

    I was surprised by that too, especially as it was on a Saturday!

    CD points have always been awarded immediately after you complete the survey. UA are awarded the Monday following completion. Some people have had issues but things seem settled now.

  • I have just completed the UA/CD mail survey and was awarded my points the same/ next day.  I have just been able to redeem my first voucher.  I have been lucky with Spectos so far as I have not any problems since joining in April, other than being rested rather quickly in July! I am hopeful that come February there will be an opening for me to get back on the live panel.
