Yeah ya bloody tossers raising the tv licensing and that, sending your goobers to peek through your front window and that. Deserves it you bloody tossers and that.
I get my letters delivered in bulk so either I get no letters or a minimum of 3 at a time.
It’s as if a service is being run as a business.
The list of things that shouldn’t have been privatised in the 80s and 90s is almost exactly the same length as the list of things that were privatised…
It’s laughable as the MPs go in to offices, get fed some nonsense by the manager there and then go on their way, then they’ll go on fb saying look at me I’m putting my foot down.
I work at RM. They don’t care about mail not getting delivered because ofcom and MPs won’t do shit. Ofcom will fine them, but considering the savings they make it’s nothing.
P.S the posties get the flak and it’s not their fault, they want people to get their mail!
Our local delivery office aren’t even going that far. They are only concentrating on TRACKED packages. If it’s not tracked, or just a letter, it’s at the bottom of the pile.
I was getting suspicious so sent myself a letter and a postcard while shopping in a different town in November. Neither have arrived yet
My mate is a postie and has been saying this for years now. He even wrote to the alimentary committee that were investigating this and sent them pictures of posters up in the sorting office. The boss of Royal Mail flat out lied to the committee.
They are told to take parcels first and leave letters. They also now have extra vans that purely take parcels, despite there being a backlog of post.
But how many letters with any vague importance are affected? Over the last 20 or so years, as a company, we’ve gone from 3 pouch’s a day to 3 letters/ magazines a day
My street now only gets one postie a week on a Friday. When we had to give up and go to our local DO (Dudley) to collect a very time sensitive letter they point blank refuse to admit that they’re doing that, yet everyday there’s Royal Mail Parcel vans up and down the street.
We get post once a week on a Saturday and only if there’s a parcel coming at the same time.
Literally never see a postie on any other day of the week doing their rounds like they used to; everyone is in a van doing parcels.
I’ve lost track of the number of urgent hospital letters we’ve had arrive after an appointment was due causing us no end of problems. And letters from and to HMRC are constantly late meaning you end up arguing with the revenue guys about tax payments constantly.
It’s a complete disaster in this area.
The universal service obligation should not be optional.
Fine the bastards until it’s more financially viable to do their job or turn it back over to the public
This is literally the delivery reforms royal mail are trying to push out nationwide.
I got a jury citations, and a warning I could be fined for not responding to the citation in good time, on the same day. It was a tad stressful.
I received my credit card and pin letter together ehich they specifically send seperatly
My business is based at my home. It’s on a RM rural circuit so we will get a different post van to the villages a mile either side of us. Friday’s are like Christmas Eve. No deliveries on other days. Even 24 hour Special Delivery comes on Friday’s and the postie signs for it ‘on our behalf’ so he doesn’t have to wait for a signature.
Royal Mail management are lying. But they would do wouldn’t they?
1. Renationalise Royal Mail
2. Impose universal service obligation on ALL delivery companies. Allow opt out with payment of a fee proportional to size of company.
3. Distribute opt out fees to companies that keep USO.
Yep I’ve missed a new SIM card causing a day of being uncontactable (I contacted and got an esim instead) and very nearly missed a hospital apptmt because of this. Royal mail are a joke nowadays, letters needs to be auctioned to elsewhere
This has been an ongoing issue with our local delivery office in South Yorkshire for best part of a year.
We get letters once per month. Managed to get a parking fine I had to pay full whack for as it arrived on the 28th day when it rolled over to pay in the full amount. Can’t exactly contest to say we only get post once per month.
Local Facebook groups full of people waiting on hospital appointment letters etc
