Even this is wrong they will send a PDF Document.

Was just going off what the FAQs say:

Some of our other panellists have found that their Internet Service Provider has compatibility issues with our site which prevents access to our training area and this may be the case for you. Please try the below suggestion first, but if you continue to experience problems then please let us know at postalsurvey@research-int.com and we can send you a “Word” version of the training instead

I started doing this in dec. We have problems with our mail but I know it's definitely NOT our postie, it's the sorting office. I have recieved stuff to post every week and have sent them as instructed but have only ever recieved one lot of stamps right at the start. Shall email and then give them to end of Feb although I'm not doing it for financial gain (fat chance), I'm certainly not doing it for nowt!


I've got a copy of the training doc in word format if anyone wants me to email them it PM me and I'll forward it to you

Sounds good.. Ill give it a go me thinks!
I have so many different posties in my area, I think a few of them are a little light-fingered especially when it comes to unregistered jiffy bags.
Generally I get most of my freebies, and ebay stuff etc, but there are times when ALOT of stuff goes missing... November last year, I ordered a few bits of ebay a few days between each other, from different parts of the country. Out of 6 items I got one, and that was sent registered post. I wasn't impressed.. But must admit it has got better since Xmas... hope the thief was given the boot!

Any suspicions of stolen mail must be reported to Royal Mail. It can then be investigated. My husband, now retired, was a postie and the majority are hard working and honest. Incidently I also am a member of this posting panel.

I did this for a couple of months, but have just cancelled. I was being sent loads of things and couldn't keep up, they kept asking for things to be posted at certain times (sometimes between 10 and 1pm which was difficult for me to do). Then if you register more then one post box-they'll ask to post things to different ones. I couldn't get to the one box one week so that was a nuisance. Its easier if you drive and can pop out to post things, i dont so was a pain.

I was paid with stamps, which was good but im another who would prefer cash or vouchers.

If anyones having problems with their post man/woman, id ring up and ask to get it looked into. I had to complain about ours before xmas for various reasons and i got a good response. They also sent me stamps to say sorry. I haven't had any problems since, so things are looking up.

I rang up the number on the back of a card that had been pushed through, because i was out when a parcel was delivered.

ps-so if you havent got much time to sort post out, and adding labels, entering items recieved, and re posting stuff each day i wouldnt bother. Its a lot to keep uo with IMO.

Thanks for the link. Ive registered so will wait and see what comes. A friend of mine has been doing this for about 10 years but because she hasnt got the internet theyve just made her redundant!
