    Just incase this helps to clear up the last few queries, have quoted Tim Milnes latest posts. For those of you that don't yet know, Tim is Co-ordinating the Matter Boxes and and has got in touch with us all personally/directly via our freebies board to sort out confusion and explain matters, particularly as some e-mails (like mine!) get lost in the great ether! Hope this helps.

    Hello again.

    I realise that there's been a dearth of information coming from us and that it might also be a little confusing about what's coming when. I'll try and summarize here:

    If you signed up at any time before 6:00pm on Sep 5th, you'll get the box on Nov 29th. If you signed up at anytime since then, you'll get the following box, which will be in the new year, probably Feb / March time.

    We sent an email out on Oct 24th to tell everyone who joined before Sep 5th that their box was coming on Nov 29th. Unfortunately, this email didn't reach everyone.

    I had the idea for Matter many years ago. I could see that TV would change and that as digital media grew people would want real things in their hands. It took many years for that to look like a reality. We ran the original pilot to see if the concept had any merit. We thought a few people might hear about it, but what we wanted was to carry out some research and see if it was worth progressing.

    We hadn’t planned for so many people joining while our plans weren’t fully developed. It took that long to get everything ready.

    Matter is still quite radical and we have to convince advertisers to use it. It will get easier and boxes will become more frequent. Luckily, lots of people–including everybody here–has been very patient and supportive–as have Royal Mail who are very committed to it.

    I'm about to publish some FAQ's on the site. But, if anyone wants to know anything, please just email me via the site.

    No, just because you didn't get an email doesn't mean you won't get the box. Some emails didn't reach people with Hotmail / Yahoo type accounts.

    No, you don't have to reply to the email–if you did get it–to get the box.

    If you joined before 6:00pm on Sep 5th, and we have your correct address, you'll get the box on Nov 29th.

    You can check your address on the site and change it if you've moved. It's vital that you keep that up to date.

    Your edition of Matter will be ready early next year.

    To make sure someone else doesn't get your box, please keep your details up to date-especially if you move house between now and then.

    To access your details, please go to: https://www.matterbox.co.uk and log-in your email and password. This will take you to the Edit Your Details section.

    You'll also see we've added some new questions, which will help us create better Matter boxes in the future.

    We'll drop you a line in the new year to let you know when you can expect it and again the day before, so you'll know it's coming.

    Thank you for your patience and let me know if you have any questions.


    Warm regards
