@Mrwhite86 , @Azzja and @Ashlynnej have you read The Great Big Review and Testing Guide?
Do you have at least 8-10 good (meaning in depth, helpful to potential buyers with information that’s relevant and can’t be found in the product description), well written, live reviews on the shopping site?
If the answer to the above questions is yes, great, you stand an excellent chance of being picked to become testers. If it’s no to either, start there.
Apologies if this has already been asked but how long is a tester list post typically live for before the final tester for those items is picked?
It varies, if the post is still live, some items at least, are still available 
With the regular tester list you vote on, you obviously can’t tell which items are still available. With the tester lists where you post stating which items you’re interested in and your order of preference, Brenna will often cross off items from the list that are no longer available so you know you can only request the others.
I had an issue twice in a row with reviews not going through so I had to be contacted and do them agaim, twice, in a row! Since then I haven’t been chosen to do a review and I’m starting to get worried I have been black listed. How can I get unblacklisted if I have been? Or even how canI know if I have been?
I’ve had dry patches where it seems I’ve not been chosen as a tester for months and months and then others where it has been back to back. I think there will just be times when products match other people better or the luck of the draw just isn’t on your side.
Maybe there is lots of new people. Or I need to make an order. Maybe its something else. Hopefully one day I get chosen again.
I don’t think ordering helps, I got selected for a tester almost a year since my last actual order, but then having the tester did prompt me to have a look around and order a few bits afterwards lol
I have been looking a lot recently, so maybe I just feel I need to order something. Good excuse I guess.
It’s as good an excuse as any 
Maybe this has been asked and answered before but how come the UK site has “helpful” feedback buttons but the US site does not? Its always nice to see if your review is helpful.
Apologies if it’s been asked before but whats the difference between voting for the tester category and selecting an item to review, compared to requesting to review an item from the normal list of items listed to test? Thanks.
The vote is the normal tester list. These are products that are already live on site and is generally open to all who have completed the relevant steps. The lists of items are normally secret testers which haven’t been released and are more likely to be sent to people who have previously received testers
Hiya, am I unable to apply testers due to being new?
Has all the info you need as you provide more and more reviews of what you already own.
After doing a review for tester item I received email to verify my address . The link lovehoney sent didn’t work I’ve contacted customer service heard nothing back still. My review still not been added. Worried lovehoney think I haven’t done my review.
Was it a live item? Maybe @Lovehoney_Brenna can investigate? 
For my tester item, will there be a link to review or do it via the website? Happy with either.
For items that are already live, please submit your review via the item’s product page. Thank you 
Will do! Thank you
Does anyone know roughly how often people are usually picked for testers?
I definitely have enough reviews, and they’re hopefully good enough quality! I was last picked for a tester over a year ago now, which I reviewed on time but nothing since then 
I’ve voted in almost all the polls since, I’m hoping I’ve not done anything wrong, and just been unlucky!
