    Mind you I've just had an invite to UA which will be the third in a row with no break.  So at least I'll get enough points for another voucher.
    Points for first UA of the year awarded promptly - hope this means they've got their act together

    I'm still waiting to be invited back as I've had the ready e-mail in December.
    The invite back came this afternoon to expect items and stamps in next few weeks.  Will be hacked off if I end up with more Christmas stamps.  Will I be lucky and get the Spice Girls?
    I need to think of something new here...

    Christmas stamps are £8.60 compared to Spice Girls £19.65. Good luck.

    My stamps came about a week after receiving that email so unless they very quickly exhaust the Christmas stamps, I suspect you will be unlucky (or lucky, depending on your perspective!)

    The books of 8 stamps I received were KC3 but the books of 4 were still QE2.

    I had 2023 Christmas stamps and the usual stamps - luckily for me they were in the system before I was removed. I’ve asked they for information on why I was removed

    Have just received this message asking about two items, one from earlier this month, the other from November last year. I always add all the details I have at the time of reporting but then they're wiped from my memory.

    I am contacting you in connection to the Royal Mail Mailagents survey you are helping us with. We would like to as you a few questions.

    The received items and dates in question are for items -

    Item B339545 with date on 27/11/2023, Item B560637 with date on 08/01/2024

    I was wondering if you remember receiving a Something For You card for these items or potentially a Fee to Pay card. Our records state they should have arrived earlier than the date you entered you received the items.

    If you would like to give me a call you are more than welcome so I can update the data, if not please can you reply to the message.

    Please note if you do receive a Something For You or Fee to Pay card in the future, please make sure you always enter the date you received the card, not the date you collected the item.




    27th November!!!!!
    They are very behind aren’t they.
    Round my way they no longer leave 'something for you' cards so unless I had reason to ask the postie about it, I have to assume the day I receive a parcel is the first delivery date and that's what I input. I'm sure there were comments about this a while back with other panelists not receiving the cards in their areas either so potentially it could skew a few inputs.

    I think the policy is now not to leave cards for anyone until there is a third failed delivery attempt. Fortunately, my regular postman leaves my parcels around the side of the house and then drops a card in to say he’s done so, so not sticking to the policy makes it easier for me and also means I get the correct date.

    but it is where I redeemed my vouchers before so I’m guessing it’s a problem at their end and you might need to give it a bit of time.
