The Poolie Bunker

I know they don't deliver as often but I sent a birthday card to my son's partner in Clavering 8 days ago and it still hasn't arrived, first class too, it's only coming from 30 miles away, now I'm hearing people in the area haven't received post for up to 3 weeks, are other posters experiencing the same problems too?

My daughter gets a bulk delivery usually on a Saturday, she lives in Seaton. Parcels take precedence over letters now.

I was on holiday in mid October & returned on the 18th, I haven't had any post since I got back & I am waiting on a couple of letters, so it's not as if I haven't been sent anything. We used to get a bulk delivery once a week, it looks like it has now gone to once a month, which is strange as the postman passes my house nearly every day going to other houses in my street.

Terrible service now. I live the far side of Northallerton, and the postman are so scruffy too!

So is there any point in buying 1st class stamps then?

I spoke to a plumbers business about a quote for a boiler replacement. I was told it was posted on 28th October but still haven't received anything yet.
My main worry is that a hospital appointment could be missed because of the terrible service they're giving.

This is governments selling off the countries assets to line the pockets of wealthy shareholders, has a Czech owner now, who sounds as though he's just assett stripping the business at the cost of reputation, customer service and workforce.

I was at my mam and dads a couple of weeks ago and they got their Tesco vouchers delivered while I was there, yet mine didn't arrive until 8 or 9 days later, I only live about 2 miles away from them, I would have thought that they would have been sent out at the same time

Went to pick a parcel up, bigger queue than Harrods food bank…and most people were picking up sheaths of letters…..so much for flogging off the Post Office to overseas buyers…results in the service becoming rubbish.

Better hand deliver my Xmas cards this year methinks.
