Arrrrrrrgh Royal Mail Website!

Is it just me or is anyone else having MAJOR problems with the postage calculator, the website stops responding after a couple of clicks! It is doing my head in, does anyone have a different site to calculate postage for RM?

Or can anyone tell me the price of a 2.5kg package sent via 1st Class recorded?

Thanks

    Thanks for posting about this - i thought it was just my computer browser playing up. Very annoying as I have had to work it out by myself, and I dont trust my calculations ! you could phone them but it costs money & they take ages to reply.

    But at least I know its not just me, think i will email them about it.
