Anyone got any earlier than first 8000?
I also got this in the post today, having inexplicably received the points a few days ago. I'd already banked them before I was offered today's opportunity to exchange them for a T-shirt. I really rate Octopus, but this seems like unnecessary waste to me. I haven't scratched off the map yet, but in the end it looks like everything will end up in the bin or recycling. I'll see if I can find a neighbour whose kid who fancies a small octopus finger puppet.
You *could* do that, but mine has kept guard on my car's dashboard for nearly three years now.

This prompted me to look in my app and I see I got the bonus points on the 24th. Nothing in the post yet either, intrigued to see if anything turns up.

I was also baffled when I saw I’d been credited the points. Then I saw someone post about this on one of the FB groups. Looking forward to receiving the goody pack…

Package arrived today. Ordered a t-shirt! Though, they give enough points for two t-shirts, so maybe I should get another…
Not sure if the same where you live, but the volume of junk mail we get weekly in our post is a far far greater issue than a one-off mailing from Octopus, who are attempting to bring a small amount of cheer to their early pioneer customers.
You could try this: Royal Mail opt out.
Not trying to divert the thread or start a discussion. For information only, and I admit there are downsides in that you might just miss something you wanted - if you read it before throwing it.
I filled that in several years ago. It made not the slightest difference. We have a different postie most days - the chance of any communication needed to make sure these opt-outs are heeded is approx. zero. RM rely on their income from all the junk ad material, so I suspect they treated my copy of the form in the same way as we all treat the daily pile which comes through the door
I'm sure it varies. We filled it in and now see very little.I filled that in several years ago. It made not the slightest difference.

That's encouraging. I suspect if you live in an area with consistent RM staffing, it probably works.
