Alternative address to receive deliveries

XiangLin

Good day everyone, I am searching for a service that provides an address(Preferably cheap) where I can order and have any letters, packages and deliveries deliveried and collected there. Royal Mail as it costs £30.50 per month, £165 6 months or £300 12 months https://www.royalmail.com/business/manage-mail/po-box I have a tremendously troublesome and busybody housemate who lives in our shared accommodation who also has cctvs to everywhere of the property. Me and the other housemates have our privacy and freedom affected and are troubled by this. My housemates are using their friend's/other address to receive deliveries, however, I do not have. I would truly appreciate if anyone can recommend me a cheap delivery and collection address service I can use.

The main 'high street' alternative is Mail Boxes Etc.
https://www.mbe.co.uk/mailbox
Price depends on your local store, maybe £240 for 1 year + a £20 set up fee. 
The advantage is you can use it for packages and courier delivery as well as Royal Mail.

Remove the cameras.

DPD and possibly other delivery companies will send parcels to a nearby drop off shop for you to collect.  Whoever is sending to you will pay less for this service and probably be delighted.

But what is the problem with your nosy neighbour?   I assume that they are not opening your post, so is it a worry that they like looking at the outside of an envelope of cardboard box?

I assume this is single room occupancy accommodation and the housemate is putting cameras in the common areas.  If that is the case, it is just downright creepy.   Try posting on the "House Buying, Renting & Selling" forum here.
