  • Hi Everybody - this is my first post :wave:

    I have also registered and received my pack today, but before continuing I wondered if anyone has checked the authenticity of this with Royal Mail?

    Just a bit concerned that it's some sort of scam as anyone could knock up the Royal Mail letter on their website, and if you go on holiday for example, you're telling perfect strangers you're house is going to be empty for three weeks. Maybe I'm being paranoid, but it could even be a "Big Brother" style test on us !! :rotfl:

    I'm going to contact Royal Mail and see how I get on - will post any feedback here. This won't invalidate any survey as Royal Mail won't know where I am from my email address alone.

    Also, does anyone who's done this for a while know if my address will be sent out to other people? Will I receive post from other testers or are they all designated addresses? (and if so couldn't that invalidate the test??)

    Questions..... questions! Interested to hear your views!!

    I registered yesterday morning, still no confirmation email. Will update if there is anything to update (or if nothing after a few days).

    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).
  • Ok the other people who you receive mail off do see your address as they need to know where to mail it to, and it's either printed on a label to be stuck on an envelope or it has to be hand written by them. All RI and Smart codes must be entered on the website prior to postage and afterwards. Prior as to say it is ready to be mailed off and afterwards to say which Post box and what time and date etc.
