Spectos/Royal Mail Monitoring and Posting Panel

Today I get an inbound letter... It has a parcel size label on a DL envelope. That looks odd but it's 1st Letter 100g so OK. The enclosed slip says it should be 2nd Class. When I log it; I choose 1st Class as the postage rate and when the app shows me pictures of 2nd class labels I say - No it doesn't look like that. So the app then invites me to upload a photo of the label. So that's a good idea, they don't need to ask me to confirm again.NBLondon said:Spectos is getting interesting - Part 2I need to think of something new here...1 -
On the plus side this means our 'pay' from Spectos increases - on the minus side it's a step nearer to the end of Royal Mail.gt94sss2 said:Debt Free Wannabe by 1 December 2027

A pleasant surprise from Spectos for once - my first posting pack of this session arrived today and it was a single letter, not a parcel in sight. Less pleasant was yet another invite to the UM survey, albeit it does not take much time but its the constant worry over whether the points will be added. Still, it will help me to hit my next £25 voucher this month so I sadly agreed.

Hi everyone, I've finally decided to activate my Mailagents account having done Kantar for years I decided to have a long break. Today I received a test item which I noted on the app with the QR code and confirmed date, time etc. The item is a brown envelope with Spectos' address on it and it says to drop it into any postbox - so far so good - but is there anything I have to record with this? When we used to get test items with Kantar we had to record the info of posting them back but seems like with Spectos we don't, is that correct?
Many thanks

Just pop it in a post box. Nothing to record. You will get 10 points for this.joeyjimbles said:Hi everyone, I've finally decided to activate my Mailagents account having done Kantar for years I decided to have a long break.

How long have people waited approx once you received the 'account has moved into ready stage' after their rest period.
Received mine back in January and still nothing. Went on rest back in July 23. I know its when there is space in my area but just thought I'd ask how long people have waited on average. They not the most organised bunch.0 -
I was rested in June, account moved to ready stage in December but I’m also still waiting to go back on the panel. Been meaning to ask this question myself!mr662 said:How long have people waited approx once you received the 'account has moved into ready stage' after their rest period.
