Awful Royal Mail service
Comments
- 
            Yes I can read, but as I said, the OP paid for a next day service which they did not receive.
 fair enough, I missed their comment about couriers who provide a same day service, but this is not what RM was paid for. They were paid to deliver a item the next day and they failed to do this.
 Why didn't you comment on this failure of RM in your earlier post instead of simply criticising what the OP and myself posted?0

 if you want same day then pay for a same day service. I dont see the point of you even mentioning this?
 Or if you want a next day service then pay for a next day service.
 Oh, I forgot. A next day service was paid for, but Royal mail failed to deliver the next day didn't they.
 Maybe rliyu mentioned the next day service offered by some courier companies to show that some firms are able to provide the services for which they accept payment for.0

 deary me.you really do struggle with striging the words together
 where did I criticise the OP?
 I made a statement on what they had posted.
 I asked a question which may allow me to give them an informed answer
 you on the other hand simply jumped in with both feet and failed.
 As for George. good to see he is still chasing around after meGeorge_Michael wrote: »Or if you want a next day service then pay for a next day service.

            where did I criticise the OP?
 Did I state that you criticised the OP?
 No. I stated that you criticized what they posted. A subtle difference, but a difference none the less.I dont see the point of you even mentioning this?
 And still no comment on the failure of RM to deliver the service that they took money for I see.
 If you are going to try to criticize how other people post, at least try to ensure that you can type correctly first.deary me.you really do struggle with striging the words together
 The simple fact is that RM took money and failed to provide the service that they were paid for.
 Why have you consistently failed to acknowledge this point, instead of trying to divert the topic by pointing out errors posted by others?0

 Are you sure?no George. try again

 Sent out Wednesday, should have been delivered Thursday.
 By my reckoning that is a next day service.They sent me the tickets via Special Delivery on Tuesday evening, with the mail out being Wednesday I should have received them Thursday morning
 My, don't you have a high opinion of yourself if you think that anything I post is done simply because of you.As for George. good to see he is still chasing around after me
 Seeing as I posted on this thread yesterday and you only posted today, I would say that you appear to be chasing after me!
 Even if I had not posted yesterday, just because I post a comment/opinion doesn't mean that I am "chasing after you".0
