    I've managed to get my gift card (voucher) but it was quite a struggle and some of the correspondence was in German. Couldn't get anywhere with it on my phone, finally got it using my laptop. Did anyone else find it difficult?
    A little. Got there in the end but I am now subscribed to a German newsletter from Cadooz   :)

    I found it perfectly straightforward and the e-mails were in English.   There was an option the first time I hit the Cadooz website to select country and that was all. 
    I need to think of something new here...

    Hi everyone. I've signed up since November, and have only ever received a handful a letters to record as a receipt, but they've been incredibly generous sending me stamps every month.
    My question is, I'm just curious to know what people do with the stamps?? Surely you can't be using them all up at the speed they're being sent? I've not used a single one and feel like I'm wasting them...

    I use a small amount for sending birthday cards etc and some of the large letter stamps I use for sending the occasional parcel.  Most of them I save for Christmas and put them in the cards of family and friends, usually much appreciated given the price of stamps now.

    I’ve given some to friends and family. 
    Some I’ve sold on Facebook marketplace. Below face value obviously but it gets shut of some of the surplus. 
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    I use them for shipping eBay items, birthday cards (large family), and Christmas cards (again large family) and various other cards / letters required through the year. I also like the large letter ones as I don't have to worry about choosing birthday cards that will fit to a standard letter and can pick up some nice embellished ones.
    I find I use them quite a lot.
    I also give the odd book to DM.

    I’ve been rewarded 10 points for returning a transponder but I haven’t!! The 1st transponder to be returned went into the postbox this morning. Yet these point were rewarded on the 8th March.
    Do we get points when a recipient that has received something we sent them returns one?

    What is the code displayed with it?
    It should match a test item you have received.

    It doesn’t match anything I’ve sent or received.
    It must be their mistake  ;)

    I've also received points for an item I didn't receive/return which was balanced out by not receiving points for something I did return!

    I'm guessing these are teething issues but if sending several back, you may want to keep a track of which ones!
