  • also I don't see royal mail taking this well because with freepost letters the reciever usually pays for the postage??!?!?

    Of course both Freepost and the BRS (Business Reply Service) methods require the receiver to pay. However, it was (and I assume still is) possible to buy pre-paid postage envelopes - the postage is printed on.

    So those could be used in conjunction with advertising, but it would be fairly costly, untargeted, advertising which is why they probably haven't sold too much of it and therefore have no envelopes to supply.

    So then, the envelopes contained a normal stamp as opposed to a Royal Mail prepaid indicia?

    Hi

    First post!!:T

    I also got 2 envelopes with 2nd class stamps on today.
  • hi just thought I'd bump this one up as this was the original thread for freepost4u.com & credit where it's due to the OP ;)

    I received my first 2 free envelopes from them this morning, each with a standard 2nd class stamp affixed and ads printed all over the back so looks like it is a genuine freebie!
