Fecking blind postman

Only asking, in case I'm forced to install ramps and duckboards across my gravel drive to accommodate them.

I've been waiting for an important PIN number from a business bank and it appears that although it was posted on the 3rd April, I never received it.

Now of course I have to deal with the bank, whose IT systems can't cope with the concept of a missing PIN and anyhow it's all in India, and no one speaks English anyway, oh what's the fecking point....

Vote with your feet - do not use finance houses with offshore call centres - I was talking to a lurvly Scottish girl last night (at First Direct- & yes I know they are HBOS) and thoughts soon wandered to (de)flower(ing)(girls) of Scotland & baby Daleks... but not quite the same when you talk to a bloke (why are they always blokes ?) at Cater Allen in Romford

You can call your local sorting office to complain but tbh it is pointless, over the last 3 years done something like 6 registered complaints over misdelivered mail. Problem is the postman keeps changeing so much it is totally pointless, by the time a complaint gets actioned the guy is already gone

Mr Prawn, have you considered the possibility that your house number might possibly be a few millimetres too small for the aforementioned postman to read?

I'm very aware of these things and have my house number in Braille, Urdu, Gujarat, Hindi, Punjabi, Chinese (Mandarin and the other one) as well as hex, binary and Vedic Sanskrit.

Well theres the problem you haven't shoved it up the postmans arse, he is sure to remember your number then.

And what about those with a hearing deficit then!!!

There you go you see. Yours is the only house in the street your postman understands (unless he speaks English and works to Decimal).

So, in a nutshell,

A Paid-For Service which accepts Item A and should deliver it to Person A, instead delivers it to Person X, or doesn't deliver it at all ?

Mate....open the curtains, take a look outside...it may surprise you but we are in the UK. It's not about quality anymore, it's about cheap as possible.

Perhaps this book will explain everything.

totally agree.

I lived in Thailand for a while and the level of service (no jokes please!) you get is outstanding and it's all done with friendliness and a smile. Relocating back over here was a real crash back to reality. More often than not you are made to feel you should be grateful to be receiving a service which you are paying for... bollox.
