Seeing as this has turned in to a 'tell-everybody-how-much-a-bawbag-RM-is' thread, I had an experience with my posty a few years ago who threw my etek2 over a neighbours fence and left me a 'your parcel is with your neighbour' card. Think he must've been sacked soon after because I was waiting to see him again to throw him over a fence...I've caught my postman putting "sorry we missed you" cards through my letterbox twice. I actually watched him do it yesterday.. I was in. I opened the door as he was putting the card through the door. He never even had the parcel with him... Does my nut in.
The one thing that continually peeve's me off about the RM is when the postman doesn't have the common courtesy to stick a delivery note through your door to let you know your parcel has been taken back to the depot,so your sat at home wondering were you parcel is.
I've had several signed for deliveries go AWOL at my end - local sorting office is staffed by retards. Most of these eventually turned up but one from Amazon just vanished without trace.
Worst balls up recently... I had been waiting on an overseas delivery (5 weeks from USA), which was eventually left in our waste recycle wheely bin when I was at work. Card was dropped through my door and I found parcel when I got home. All sounds fairly harmless.. yes? This happened on a Tuesday... but If it had been a day earlier on Monday, our recycle bin would've been emptied by council. Bye Bye expensive overseas parcel
Nice one RM you utter Feckwits

Complain, complain, complain, not to your local delivery office but to the customer service line, I know the people on the other end of the phone may not be the brightest sparks, but a complaint raised this way, generates a paper/pc trail and has to be actioned by the delivery office manager. The phone number is 08457 740 740I've caught my postman putting "sorry we missed you" cards through my letterbox twice. I actually watched him do it yesterday.. I was in.

When you go to the post office always get a proof of posting, with a recorded your receipt should have the tracking number, and make a claim, the post office branch will have forms.And they lost the 1st one i sent via recorded as well
cost me £2.50 to post TWO pods in a carrier bag yesterday, and to be honest i think my farts weigh more.
Yep, the revised pricing is good if you're sending small, heavy items - it works out cheaper than before, but you're stuffed if you're selling bulky, light items.
The new pricing structure to my mind is to move the larger parcels onto parcel force in preparation for it being sold off.Cost me just under £10.00 to send a pair of Eclipse distortion pants by 1st class standard parcels..
