Do ALL of us have exactly the same INSTANT NEWS displayed at the same time ?

At the moment, started a few days ago, I have ....

"Instant News
Please ALWAYS enter any test letters you receive.
Open your app, click the red button at the bottom of the screen and scan the QR code.
Please then enter the time and date you have received the test letter and pop the RFID tag (small brown envelope) into your closest postbox."

ANYONE GOT ANYTHING DIFFERENT ?

It's just that I thought it was a "general broadcast" to the world of Mailagents ...

... because an individual message would come through as a QUERY ?

But then whilst doing a bit of "housekeeping" (checking awarded points) I found that I had been credited with returning a RFID for a test letter that I had NOT recorded as having received !!!

I've checked and can find no evidence of the item, no envelope nor letter that would have been in it.
Given I do not discard anything until the survey is 100% finished I'm certain that it never arrived.

So a bit ODD that NO QUERY for this "ERROR" but that Instant News was suggested not recording a test letter.


Anyone else had 10 points awarded for an RFID they never received/returned ?

Instant news is the same for everyone. Just coincidence for you.

Yes I occasionally get 10 points for one I have never received which balances out for the ones returned that never get credited

I have also received the 10 points before I have even returned the RFID

Mailserver

The instant news seems to be randomly generated by computer,  similar to notices on motorways,  like "check your tyres", etc and lose affect after a while.  I no longer takes the notices personally.  

With RFID's I make a note of them on the sheet with the date, time and post box (yes, I vary them) then mark  once points have been received.  Not had a problem, so far.

I've been resting since the start of May but this week they credited me with 10 points for returning a transponder. 

As far as I knew I didn't have anything outstanding.
