This is a legitimate business. You mail things for them and you earn points which you can trade for vouchers. They're just trying to recruit new operators - I know as we participate in this survey and have done for a number of years. The call today was regarding a business survey. They did not ask for any information, just confirmed that we had received it to the registered email address. NOT a scam.

This is genuine, as also confirmed by Royal Mail on their website https://www.royalmailwholesale.com/news/important-update-from-the-royal-mail-quality-of-service-team
Called saying he was from Spectos doing a survey on behalf of Royal Mail in relation to franking machines and that we would be rewarded for taking part. Advised that we weren't interested.
They are a survey company. I know as I am participating right now.
Definitely NOT A Scam.
This is genuine, if you join them you get postage stamps & points to turn into vouchers (Amazon etc.) Also special edition stamps.
Royal Mail Survey - It is a genuine caller so don't believe every person who commented here.
Said they were from Spectos, working with Royal Mail. I stupidly said “yes and “no” really hope it’s not one of the scams that use such words to do you harm.
Claim to be working on behalf Royal Mail and got my mobile number from Royal Mail as "the person responsible for the business franking machine". Thats complete rubbish, Number blocked.
Said doing a survey on behalf of rm and will be rewarded with vouchers - not likely! She sounded foreign but it was a very stilted call and tbh I wouldn't have trusted personally never mind through my business!
Definately a scam, block the number. They telephoned and said they were doing a survey for Royal Mail. To participate the calling company would have to send us 3 items and we would then send them on for them! Yes ok then!! haha as if! Just hang up and block.
No scam, official and trustworthy. They are doing transit time measurements for Royal Mail

Liars, claim they are from Royal Mail - trying to obtain email addresses.
