Our unstamped letter wasn't even delivered. Send the £1.42 cost to the post office first, and then we'll deliver it..!! Didn't mention who it was for nor whom it was from.
Or make a journey to the sorting office and pay cash there. I understand the PO employ someone to sit there all night long looking for unstamped letters and sending out demands for postage...plus everyone's favourite, the £1 admin fee. The world doesn't get any better and the post office, or what ever they call themselves thesedays, are not making life any nicer.
The unstamped letters are ejected from the automatic sorting machines at the mail centre as they havent got stamps on they dont employ someone to check every letter.If they didnt surcharge letters as usual in this country people would take the pi55 and just put letters without stamps on because good old royal mail would deliver them for nothing.Some slip through the system as i have had letters delivered before without any postage on so its swings and roundabouts0 -
A couple of years ago I had to drive two miles each way and pay about £1.25 for a letter which didn't have enough postage on it. This was from the Yorkshire Building Society. I rang to complain about this, they were very apologetic and credited £5 to my account for the trouble and expense it had caused.What part of "A whop bop-a-lu a whop bam boo" don't you understand?0
