They need to do something to improve their services. It's been absolutely dire for as long as I can remember. First class is 50/50 at best and I've had maybe 3 in 10 of the last signed for's arrive on time. Service is a joke at it's current levels

However, they can be exchanged for the new ones through Royal Mail's Swap Out scheme, which opens on 31 March.Comment

RM are handling a lot of covid tests so I wonder if this is a factor, or just the fact they have a lot of staff absence right now? Our PO now has Sunday collections, specifically added IIRC for Covid test drop-off.
Originally posted by hobnob View PostThere's no end date for the Swap Out scheme, and I assume this will be similar to when bank notes change; you can't spend the old notes in a shop, but you can still take them to a bank and replace them with new ones.
And that's beside the point. Why should people have to spend millions of man hours visiting their PO? In rural communities many of us don't have a local PO (or bank). So we have to spend time and money sorting this out when nobody wanted it.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
