I cant trust royal mail

Today, I got my tesco mailing but someone have cut the edge of my letter .(try to open it and see what is inside)
There was no letter on Wednesday but loads on Thursday.
I lost 2 items which were sent by 2nd class recorded this month.
The freebies I got wasnt the amount they suppose to be.
I lost a mobile and a watch that sent by my friend from HK last year(2 different posts)
I also lost Ayton trial this month ...nothing delivery to me.
Complain letter sent and I think there is some thieves in the post office.
Another case, I saw my postman steal my freebie when I looking out the window 2 years ago.
:evil: :evil: :evil:

    If you saw the postman steal your freebies why didn't you confront him ?

    If what you describe is what I think it is, this regularly happens to me and it is not caused by someone trying to have a look, but rather is what sometimes happens to the envelopes when they get stuck in the sorting machine or when they are getting pushed through the letterbox.

    The other stuff you describe is a bit worrying though, and should be reported.

    My mum works for a preschool...last christmas over half the kids they sent Christmas cards to reported that the envelope had been cut open and the chocolate coins inside removed.

    More accountability has to be enforced within the RM.

    I think the postman likes belly bars! I've had several go missing too.

    I work for the Post Office and I would say that if anyone has a problem with the postman/woman, they MUST report it no matter how trivial it seems.

    The vast majority are honest but the disreputable ones get us all a bad name.

    Maybe it's an induction thing! All postmen have to get their belly buttons done! :eek::eek:
