    It is strange that more post from PPCs goes missing than from any other industry in the country.

    .

    Out of genuine interest are there any stats out there to prove this.

    Volunteering at CAB I can tell you a lot of post from the DWP and the courts goes missing too!

    You had your own reasons for paying. It is a shame but hey, it's done now.

    Just in case anyone else in a similar situation reads this, I'd strongly recommend always persevering with landowner complaints. If McDonalds really are not the landowner, then someone is and there are ways to find out who they are. Never be intimidated by big companies with flashy websites, just complain like Friar Tuck as The Deep would say.

    I doubt it.

    I am only going by my own personal experience. I hardly ever, if at all have a problem with sending or receiving post to and from all sorts of individuals, companies, government agencies and the suchlike. In fact I cannot think of any event where something has failed to arrive whether sent by or to me.
    Of course, if I wasn't expecting something then I wouldn't know if it didn't arrive, but otherwise I have never had a problem.

    Late deliveries, yes, but failed delivery, no, at least not as far as letters and cards are concerned. I have had problems with items purchased online not arriving, but that is a different gether all tomatter.
    I married my cousin. I had to...
    I don't have a sister. :D
    All my screwdrivers are cordless.

    Thanks

    The only thing I would say is that it is amazing that some correspondence does get through!

    For example, the number of times I have seen folks who have received the letter saying that a court has made a decision against them but they had nothing previously,....
