            Hey everyone - quick question. So I was recently invited back onto the panel (after having rested for 6 months) as a space had opened up in my area. I accepted, and a countdown appeared in the app to say "[x] days left". The countdown should have ended today (having got to 0 days left), but it is now back to saying "You are currently on your rest period" (no countdown). I got an email a few days ago which said "As you are aware you are currently on your rest period and can not be invited back just yet until the six months is passed."Any ideas what's going on? Should I be on the panel again now?0

 Ignore the last email, it’s an automatic send to anyone still in their countdown, even if by only one day.hwg3141 said:Hey everyone - quick question.

Your invitation may well have been an inquiry to see if you are available to go back on the panel once a space is available, rather than telling you space was available.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

            Anybody seen one of these yet? Solar-powered postboxes are being rolled out across UK - BBC News
 Postbox spotters are up in arms saying these are ugly and will be an excuse to shut down subpostoffices in some areas. I can see their point but for sending out the test parcels, this would be a lot easier for me if there was one nearby. No queuing with a mailbag at the PO, can send at 7am if I want to.I need to think of something new here...0

 I thought that's what the RM inpost lockers were for? I can't see these pillar boxes holding more than 6-8 shoe box sized parcels at a time! I can see them being a benefit in more rural areas where people might want to post parcels and have a 10-15 mile trip to do so. Now that would make for a sensible move, but hardly unlikely!NBLondon said:Anybody seen one of these yet? Solar-powered postboxes are being rolled out across UK - BBC News

 I'm due to go on rest in the next couple of weeks after a 6+ month stint and to be honest, it will be nice to have a break over the Christmas period as I usually have enough to post The rest period email states that I can still partake in regular app quizzes which should be interesting.                         ~ NSD 2025 - NSD November 0/15 (11 x💯)# Spectos/Royal Mail Monitoring and Posting Panel - On Rest - 2 x £25 Vouchers Redeemed, 29 FREE Books of RM Stamps & 2 x Presentation Pack.~ Totally FREE Christmas 2025 - 🎁✉️🏷🎀💐🪪🗒🧺⭐️Completed Challenges 2025:# No.36 Make £2025 in 2025 £1698.68 / £2025 (4) 💯💯💯# No.12 Save £2 a Day 2025 £730/ £730 💯# No.27 Save 1p A Day 2025 £667.95 / £667.95 💯# No.19 52 Week Env Challenge £1378 / £1378 💯# No.34 Save £12k in 2025 £20,075.12 / £12,000 💯 (8) - Continuing0 The rest period email states that I can still partake in regular app quizzes which should be interesting.                         ~ NSD 2025 - NSD November 0/15 (11 x💯)# Spectos/Royal Mail Monitoring and Posting Panel - On Rest - 2 x £25 Vouchers Redeemed, 29 FREE Books of RM Stamps & 2 x Presentation Pack.~ Totally FREE Christmas 2025 - 🎁✉️🏷🎀💐🪪🗒🧺⭐️Completed Challenges 2025:# No.36 Make £2025 in 2025 £1698.68 / £2025 (4) 💯💯💯# No.12 Save £2 a Day 2025 £730/ £730 💯# No.27 Save 1p A Day 2025 £667.95 / £667.95 💯# No.19 52 Week Env Challenge £1378 / £1378 💯# No.34 Save £12k in 2025 £20,075.12 / £12,000 💯 (8) - Continuing0
