Spectos/Royal Mail Monitoring and Posting Panel

silvercar

received the email that I’ve finished 6 months of active duty and my rest period starts…..except I’ve had nothing to post or receive since I took a week’s holiday at the end of May.

So I’ve effectively had only 4 months being active and really have already spent 2 months resting. I’d did raise a ticket about this, but the only reply I had was that it’s been passed to a colleague to deal with.

Is anyone else having problems with the app? I have tried to report CD/UA update several times this evening and it's just a blank page.

No, although there was an app update a few days ago. I would suggest checking for an app update if you haven't already done so and see if that helps:-)

Last app update was 08/06/25. Most problems with data entry and app speed are down to the systems at Spectos.

I updated my App last week, so obviously behind the trend.......

So you're not currently on version 1.14.0 ??

I am since my app update.........

I've not had any issues with the update & am continuing as being active with more bundles arriving and postings through August - So can't be bad.

It looks like I'm back on the live panel after a very long break. They rested me back in February 2024, then after 6 months I was on Amber, waiting for a space, been parked there for nearly a year.
However, yesterday, as I returned from work, I was greeted with a very familiar looking package! I knew straight away it was a couple of books , posted from a business. I recorded them on the app, but I'm still Amber and I've received nothing from Spectos saying I'm going live, so it's a mystery for sure!! I've constantly been doing both UM and CDM since being parked though, so get their emails/updates etc.
Has anyone else been in this situation? I nudged them back in June, to check if there was a problem (been running out of stamps ) and was told there were no spaces in my area. Very strange indeed.

Yes, I'm the same. came off resting last December and received a box yday with a book. Still showing as Amber on app! does this mean we are back on panel or not??

Coming up to the end of my sixth month stint, at least I'll request it as I will be travelling a bit the next few months for work - haven't really had much to do to be honest. Mostly just receiving letters and posting back the trackers, think I've had 2 parcels of books in that tmie to post been a bit quiet.

Anyone know when the current unaddressed mail survey ends? Feel it's been gong on for months. - we never get much of this to begin with so it's always just reporting 0 99% of the time too.

I think it ends on Sunday.

The email invite you recieved will list the 5 week period. Beware that the survey will be on the app long past the required dates.

I just received an email from them, also still on Amber:

IMPORTANT- PLEASE READ BELOW

You are still currently in the "Ready" status and waiting for a space to become available in your area.

You potentially will receive an item/s over the next few weeks commencing 21st July 2025. This is due to a technical issue from planning, and should be solved by 18th August 2025.

Please log them like normal and return the RFID tag (small brown envelope) as soon as possible; that would be greatly appreciated. You will still get the points allocated to you for processing the item/s. 

Thank you for your support with the measurement, and we hope to have you back with us very soon. Keep an eye out for an invitation to take part when a space becomes available.

Kind regards,

Your Mailagents Team
