Obv I don’t want to get too deep into privatisation weeds as we don’t want to get into the dreaded (whispers) politics in this comm. But I’m interested to know if other people are noticing the postal service deteriorating.
Mail for other houses (my door number is clearly marked)… delivery timelines missed… then the icing on the cake, had a delivery that was supposed to come up to Newcastle delivered while I’m not at home, they left it in a ‘safe place’ despite one not being designated.
Want to hear what the ‘safe place’ was? Out on the street, jammed behind a random neighbours wheelie bin! So yeah that’s £110 of new clothes gone to some lucky local who swiped it. Boooo, Royal Mail, booooo!
To counteract the whinge, I just made a banging pizza almost from scratch. Success!
That’s sad to hear, someone dedicated has left because of the new changes. Absolutely insane that someone can just blatantly swipe your item, in uniform, on camera and there was no satisfactory resolution for you. Not surprised to hear that Hermes wouldn’t help you out, it probably is sat in their depot to this day (imo they’re one of the worst of a bad bunch).
Pleased to hear you have a good postie again!
