    For the first time I have to post items between 10 am and 1 pm at the Post Office and also at the Post Box which is a bit of a pain. I thought that there was only one collection a day from post boxes but must be wrong.

    Hi

    I thought it was before last collection not at specified times any more.

  • So did I, so it was a surprise to suddenly get such a specific time slot to post at the P.O and post box. Really hope this is a one off. I don't mind when it is simply after 1p.m or before 1pm.

    I have a post box 1/2 mile from m house but the post office ia 7 mile trip there and back in the next village. Not somewhere I go every day.

    So I post one in a post box on the way to the post office.

    Or post both in the post box at the post office.


    As long as you post them in the same post code you use any box.


    I do think the time slots in the 24 November packs may be a slip up.
  • I had an email saying several of my items seem to have been posted outside my postcode area but i am 100% positive this has never happened.How on earth has that occured?
  • My next weeks items have got times to be posted like between 10am-1pm

    Did you check the box postcode on the collection plate?

    No real need because all my boxes are within half a mile from my house.I would need to travel approx 10 mile to post outside my area,which i never have.

    When my brother-in-law was on the panel, he received several emails stating that he was posting outside his area.

    He definitely wasn't, and the issue never seemed to be resolved.

    He's resting currently.

    Well you asked how its possible. I suggest your first check is the postcode on the boxes.
