    so what facts are you going to tell the OP?
    You don't know where they live,so.....

    Not exactly where they live but their profile narrows it to a specific part of the UK,
    Location
    County Durham
    so there may be other MSE members from the same area who know if something is going on with regards to RM deliveries in that locality.

    that could cover many delivery offices. I'm listed as Edinburgh
    Edinburgh is covered by around 20 offices under EH.

    So you don't have any answers. just felt like chipping in.

    No, I felt like giving the OP some support because you took it upon yourself to attempt to belittle them by ridiculing their question.

    Even though, as your objection wasn't the most well thought out or intelligent, your attempt failed at the first hurdle. ;)

    It wasnt an objection,it was common sense.
    The OP hasnt even provided what the explanation was(if there was one)
    The OPs question can't be answered,only hypothesised on.

    The OP on that thread asked a sensible, easy to answer question and your first response was sarcasm with no attempt to post anything useful.

    The answer is:
    No, there is no section on MSE regarding Royal Mail failures and compensation.

    That wasn't too difficult was it, and the question had already been answered before you decided that sarcasm was better than useful input.
    If you wanted further info from the OP, why not ask instead of trying to make them look small?

    So whats your answer for the OP in this thread?
  • So whats your answer for the OP in this thread

    I don't have an answer for the OP as I don't live near them so have no idea as to what the problem may be, but neither do I have any pathetic sarcastic comments to make towards them for asking for help and advice.

    Shame that your signature "Honesty,integrity,self sufficiency" doesn't extend to being courteous as well.
