Hmm, sent a few parcels 1st recorded, got there the next day, also recived one the day after ordering the item, maybe so sorting office issues in you area:confused:

So I paid for special next delivery 2 days ago and cos the bank holiday it wont get there? Also I dont think anyone was slagging off the local postie. more the royal mail as a company. So Easy tiger!!! |
Glad we agree then Chris.....I've been unfortunate a few times now to have bout kit off the bay and found myself at the start of a holiday, so yes your 1000% right, they shouldnt offer next day delivery in these cases.
Believe me when I tell you that they ARE trying to kill off Royal Mail, aided and abetted by stupid internal policy. No offence intended, you just hear the PO bashing everywhere buddy...soz! |
Special Delivery is next WORKING DAY, which does not include Saturdays or Public Holidays, if it isn't then delivered by 1pm on the next working day, you can claim the postage back.
Recorded don't mean next day, nor does 1st class recorded. |
Now 3 days into the next day special delivery. And the lad i sold the stuff to has now gone back to singapore!!! NICE!!!
So ive now got to sort out delivery back from the hotel in brighton back to me, which wont be easy then £90 to singapore!!! Love the Post Office!!:thumbdown: |
ive been to post a few engines ive repaired for people today via special delivery,the nice lady told me they are not guaranteeing special delivery getting there on time as there is some strike on with the aeroplanes that move the mail about..so you can pay for special but no guarantee it will get there ontime at this time,maybe this is why the mail has been slow these last few days?
dont know how long this is to go on for tho. |
Oh that could be why!!! Cheers Dave.
Best thing is this guy may not be able to go back to singapore 2nite so may get this parcel? |

it should only really affect international male, although domestic parcels should be slower. the volcanic ash hasn't closed any roads....

It is....believe me!
Airmail has to be sorted as usual then stacked into special pods made to fit the planes, you only have some many pads, but a shedload of mail to backlog...where do you think that gets stacked ? That also slows down your mail process time. Not just international airmail, some mail gets flown up here to be sorted, then either flown back down or lorried off to other local offices. Its a nightmare....but if you had a look at the millions upon millions of items that arrive daily with no problems, the pictures not half bad. Not for you if your missing an item certainly. And Im referring to Royal Mail only here remember, if you use Parcel Farce then your on your own. |
