Cause for concern

I am in the process of waiting to hear from Halifax bank re my statements which I requested at the beginning of APRIL. Had no joy even allowing them an extra week to supply them.

So into the cupboard I went and found some of my statments and compiled my list. Sent it off Recorded Delivery 30th April to Leeds. have checked quite a fwe times on the Royal mail website to find that it's not arrived and the excuse I'm being offered is that my letter is still in the process of delivery some TWO weeks after I sent it. However I sent another letter Recorded Delivery on the same date to Nottingham and it arrived on 2n May.

So.... are Royal Mail crap or is it, as I suspect that the Banks aren't signing for these letters or are they deluged by claims they just take them and put them in one pile??? I work for the Post Office BTW so I sort of know about these things, something the Royal Mail "Helpline" didn't know

In response to my first letter I received a lovley response saying my claim is invalid and the charges are correct but no refunc of my £10. Is this part of the danvce as it were?
