  7. The UK’s private postal company (which bizarrely calls itself “Royal Mail”) has written to say that the are improving the service by reducing deliveries (of second class mail) from six days a week to two or three.
    Why can’t they just be honest and say that they are trying to contain costs?

  12. Sick and tired of Royal Mail saying they have delivered to my “safeplace”. I do not have a “safeplace”. Just a place where it can get damaged or stolen. Complete whack jobs. #royalmail #fail #postmanprat

  16. "Small changes for more dependable delivveries", lies the UK's #RoyalMail.

    1/ halving the number of deliveries each week is not a "small change".

    2/ it's nothing to do with dependable. It's about cost-cutting.

    These lies are being delivered to every home in the UK. No punishment, of course, 'cos corporate mendacity isn't criminalised.

    But say you support action against #genocide ... 😡

  23. I'm seeing claims that #RoyalMail uses this method to hide the dates (machine or hand cancels with stamps usually have a date on them) so folk can't tell how long its taking to deliver the mail, but that would require switching off the part of the automatic machine on the conveyor belt that does the cancellation - its normally only unusually shaped envelopes or anything that can't be auto processed that gets a hand cancel..

  28. I'm sorry #RoyalMail, but if you send me a notification that my parcel is at my local delivery office, and will be delivered between 10:10 and 14:10 today, you should effing well deliver it. No ifs, no buts.

    They should be made to remove the Royal part of their name, rebranding to something more accurate such as "Can't Be Arsed Mail" or "Fuck You Mail".

    In other news, the Amazon Prime order I placed on Thursday for delivery on Friday wasn't even dispatched until today (Saturday) and will arrive two days after it was required. Even worse, they wouldn't let me cancel it despite the fact it hasn't even been dispatched. I shall take no pleasure in sending it back.

    The race to the bottom continues.

  33. Not an expression of republican sentiment - but a pen cancellation of a #postage #stamp by #RoyalMail #Chelmsford - maybe because the sender used an odd shaped envelope - it is from one of our service users who pays by cheque, they tend to be seniors who still use notepaper and writing cases!

    When I worked at RM there were hand stamps for this if the sorting machine didn't auto cancel the stamps. but they have likely been abandoned to save time and costs post privatisation, and RM don't want the stamp being reused, especially at £1.80 a time!

  38. We had a leaflet through the door from the postman to tell us that the service is going to start being shit. Which is quite a surprise as it got shit several years back.

    To be honest if they keep to their promise to deliver letters every second day, that's going to be a significant improvement on what we currently get.
