  • Hi Timmilne,

    I received an email from matterbox some weeks ago confirming that I would be receiving my olympic edition box and to confirm my postcode - which I did. I have since not reecived any box though have emailed matterbox contact email 5 times over the past few weeks to find out where it is - I've even got the delivery receipt emails. Though no-one has replied to any of my emails.

    Can you help at all?

    Hello everyone

    I thought I'd drop by to say hello since we've got a new box coming out and I know everyone will be asking the usual questions...

    Do I get a box as soon as I join? - No, we send them out only when we have participating advertisers.

    I've just joined, do I get the next one? - only if you joined before Monday afternoon (6th June) and received an email inviting you to get them.

    I've been with you ages, why haven't I had one? - We've only sent a few out in the last few years (the last being Dec 2010) and we don't have enough boxes for everyone.

    I've been with you ages, my friend joined after me and got one, why not me? We don't do it on a first-come-first-served basis, as then, only a few people would every get them. We try and make it fair.

    It's still hard getting advertisers to use Matter; they'd rather make TV ads you ignore. When we start to get more advertisers to use it and make more boxes, we'll try and make sure more people get them.

    I know it might not seem fair, but it's the fairest way we can do it while we have very limited supply of boxes.

    Do you email every freebie that you apply for 5 times?

    Some freebies arrive and some dont, its just a case of applying for what takes your fancy and then having a nice surprise when the postie brings you presents.

    Here's what it says on the website that was updated yesterday:

    Matter News

    28 July 2011

    The next edition of Matter, from Cadbury, is on its way.
    If you're one of the lucky recipients, we hope you enjoy the contents and join in the fun from Cadbury Spots v Stripes by playing the game and helping us create the rules.
    This is only the third Matterbox (after the pilot) and the latest after the last Cadbury edition in Dec 2010. If you missed out on this box and if you've joined since we closed the list on June 6th, you'll be eligible for future boxes.
    Everyone who receives the next Cadbury box, I hope you enjoy the game. And please join in�there's a great prize from Cadbury to win and this Matterbox will be a success if you do.
    Oh and don't forget to tell your friends about it and Matter.
    Thank you
    Tim Milne
    Matterbox creative director
