    Think that some of the Posties are doing more than 1 round etc, So that is why there are delays, Many days we now get our post after 1 pm.

    You can always tell when the usual postie is off etc.

    So how do you get POP for a prepaid stamped item now then? :/
    Even if its just a normal sized letter, surely they aren't going to put it all through the computer system.

    We've had reports of imminent removal of the COP pads for a few years now, yet if you phone Royal Mail business centre and ask for the pads they insist they are still being printed and ordered and they are not aware of any changes.
