Spectos/Royal Mail Monitoring and Posting Panel

I've not had any Spectos bundles to post in about 2 months now, but received all the stamps. Anyone else in the same position?

I was surprised to reach it so early, yesterday I had 1750 points, I checked today and it had gone up overnight to 2560, not sure how, I am half way through a correctly delivered post survey but did not think that would make much difference. I have emailed them with a query about claiming rewards but have not had a reply yet. xx

You got Correctly Delivered from Spectos?   I've seen nothing of that yet - maybe they are testing in some regions.

The Dec 1st newsletter said to look out for CD surveys but I have had nothing yet. Must be done through email as the app doesn't cover it yet (or does it?). Their quiz said they will only be for people resting.
Not great increase in my points overnight although they do owe us for returning RFIDs.

I'm now getting a posting pack once a week with 1-3 items to be posted all on the same day.  Spectos finally seem to have got ahead of the curve as I've already received my packs for next week and the week after.  Plus I'm receiving occasional items from other panellists, nowhere near as many as Kantar though.  I currently have nearly 1400 points so it will be a while at this rate before I hit 2500.  For anyone who has done so, I would suggest emailing Spectos to enquire how you redeem your points.  As another poster said, we may not be able to do this yet but at least you will know for sure.

Same for me, nothing to post since early December, but received stamps and Presentation packs a few weeks ago.

Had more stamps from Spectos today with items to post on 22nd and 23rd. Finally seem to be getting their packs out in plenty of time. They did not say which month the stamps are for and I have lost track.

I’ve had a couple of Spectos letters where it’s a mail mark rather than a stamp, but the amount on it is actually less than a stamp would be.  So for example today’s second-class letter had 51p marked as the cost.
Anyone else finding this at all? It just seems strange.

That's the right price for Mailmark 2nd class.   https://www.royalmail.com/sites/royalmail.com/files/2022-03/royal-mail-business-price-guide-april-2022.pdf  Page 11.

Spectos must now be testing with Business Panellists as well as Personal.  Kantar did as well - so its not unexpected.

It looks like Spectos have started awarding points for returning RFIDs. I noticed yesterday that my points had increased by what seemed like a random 20 points and another 10 points have gone on today. That would seem to correspond to 10 points per RFID based on what I’ve returned recently.

Mine went up 70 overnight
