I'm just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this because I can't be the only one!

1) I have been on the active panel consistently since October 22,  fifteen months solid with no resting period (not complaining though)

2) I have not received any bundles to post for about three months but I receive a high volume of test letters and parcels (at least five times a week, often three parcels in one day)

3) I'm always getting invites for the UA mail survey to the point where as soon as one finishes, I'm straight on to the next. I actually cannot even remember when I wasn't doing one! 

I'm definitely not complaining and am not going to contact them because I'm happy to continue but I'm sure the above isn't normal!

Anyone else in the same position please?

Yes, exactly the same for me. Only reason I can think is that I live in a fairly rural area and there are not many other participants around here.

Would be nice to have a bit of a break , but about to cash in another £25 soon, which will be £250 since the start, so not complaining either.

Rolling straight into a new cycle of UA and more images have appeared.     The Bosch clothes brush thing is familiar - is that another dummy image?   There's one believable one from a local college.

Yes, I've had the Bosch one this time and last time but never received anything. Although I never get my unaddressed mail from RM anyway but it seems unlikely they'd be paying to have it delivered twice so close together.

Yes!
300 points today for the unaddressed mail that finished last Sunday.

Ive done a few of the surveys, but ive just recieved my first thing to actually post..............and its a sack to take to the post office , which im assuming has books in ,  So i do i attatch the manifest to the sack or just hand it to the post office person ?  and some say fill the red tag in , others say leave it blank , Its a bit confusing

I just take it in and wave at the post office staff, and say I haven’t got a clue what I meant to do with this, I’m bringing it in for someone else, over to you! 

A couple of times I’ve had post office staff tell me they don’t want to know what to do and I’ll have to wait for someone else to come in, but most of them should’ve got the gist of it by now.

I give the manifest to the po person. Only once have they asked me to attach it to the sack (the first time only as don't think the staff knew), so I take a rubber band in case that happens again and ensure it is folded so the barcode can be scanned. Leave the red tag blank.

Thank you for your reply, I'm so glad that I'm not the only one!

It may be because you are in a rural area but I'm in Central London so I can't think of any explanation as I would have thought that there would be plenty of panelists.

I think that I've had about £250 too, it's brilliant as I'm always shopping on Amazon.

The stamps though, I don't have a clue what to do with them as I never need to send letters or parcels and I have a ridiculous amount now 🤣🤣

I keep getting emails asking me to do the unaddressed. At the same time I’ve had an email that I’ve finished my resting period and will be asked back to the main survey as soon as there are vacancies in my area. This suggests that people aren’t interested in the unaddressed.

No way I am doing it after they declined points twice previously, particularly when I am not on the panel, so won’t be able to get newer a voucher.

I got rid of my excess Large 1st by selling them to this dealer:  https://www.philatelink.co.uk/buying--stamps-prices-4-w.asp  (scroll down halfway to see the price list)    Better than just leaving them in a drawer if you will never use them.
