    thats right business as usual with parcelforce
    It's business as usual for all Parcelforce Worldwide services during the current Royal Mail industrial action, so you can continue to despatch your parcels with confidence.

    This site will be updated with any further information.

    thats not the RM site is it?

    They are delivered separately from the post as it is a separate service which incidentally won't be affected by the postal strikes along with Special Delivery and Royal Mail Tracked items

    Hi hun,

    Parcelforce are a different company to Royal Mail. If a competition promoter sends prizes out via courier such as Parcelforce or DHL etc then there will be no delays but if they send it as a parcel via normal post then it will be affected by the strikes.
    Hope that makes sense and doesnt come across as being rude.
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

    Thanks Ikkle :) I do know all of the above at no point in my op did I say that Parcelforce where not a seperate company,
    I said They are delivered separately from the post as it is a separate service which incidentally won't be affected by the postal strikes along with Special Delivery and Royal Mail Tracked items

    Parcelforce will operate as normal as it has its own collection, distribution and delivery network
    Special Delivery and Royal Mail Tracked items will still be delivered on strike days
    In hindsight maybe I should have said company instead of service, but what is the newsgroup becoming when one is attacked for trying to be helpful this is now a regular occurrence and is happening all to often now our forum used to be such a friendly place but has recently been infiltrated by a mindless set who are just out to cause trouble and mayhem and because of this a lot of posters are staying away and not posting anymore :(

    custardy was just looking for a fight and took the post out of context remember He was the one who was rude and caused trouble before in the subscriptions thread and called all of us compers moaners Here

    Don't mean to bump, but tbf, the OP didn't mention about RM, so anyone can assume she means parcels in general. I admit that it's not all parcels that are delivered via parcelforce, but some from competition wins are.
