Why is Parcel Force and Royal Mail two differing bodies.
Why does Parcel Farce say they will collect goods from my house, then do not bother to come and collect orders?
DHL are far better.
As for going on strike, perhaps this is the final nail in the coffin for any reasonable business that uses Royal Snal for delivery. And it does not alter the fact that in 2007, I watched as the posties shoved a 'We're Sorry you were out' note through my letter box, instead of ringing the bell. Lo and behold when I rang up, the parcel was in the sorting office, but I could not get there that day, as it closed at 12.0 -
Oooh I love Royal Fail, this morning my post comes, well half of it at 10.10am, 13 minutes later another set of letters come through the door.
Now I know you are all going to be excited about this but please be calm, Royal Mail now offer time travelling postmen, nestled beneath my two letters was a failed delivery slip for recorded signed for delivery, dated today but exactly 37 minutes in the future, how exciting!! Amazing!!
Except to say I was in my home, and I am not in receipt of my parcel which I paid to be delivered from Ebay so I guess it doesn't really work. Lazy, lazy postman, I am actually really, really annoyed and have sent a complaint email to Royal Mail. It's so annoying, the options presented to me now are to pay £3.00 for a daily bus ticket, pay 50p to get it redelivered or have to schlep down to my local post office to get it delivered there for nothing even though I have paid to have the parcel sent here.
To add insult to injury the contact phone number on the back of the slip is no longer recognised and also this is part of my wedding attire so it's really lucky I haven't left it until the last minute.
Good old Royal Mail, they love their customers!!:A :

Ohhh you should have posted it. That way you can't lose. They either accept your complaint and deal with it or say that they have never received it and point proved about shoddy serviceIf At First You Don't Succeed, Call It Version 1.00 -

Well it's not what that says on my card, so I think it's an old one which is why the number is not recognised!:A :
