Royal Mail Я POO

[Paddy]

You should move to the mainland instead of operating from the Outer Hebrides.

In the past I've used FEDEX, UPS, or DHL when speed and security matters. Recall sending a document to a Norwegian client not that long ago, sure it was FEDEX, cost ~€30. Arrived at the client's desk 30hrs later.

1. I am less than an hour from central London.

2. GLS is a German Company and locally known as Große Logistik Scheiße

They're never going to replace email with that kind of tulip.

The signed for service is atrocious. They "lost" three signed for deliveries I sent last year. One of them finally made it to the destination 18 months late. Another one finally made its way back to me having travelled around Switzerland and Germany (it was addressed to Spain).

Quite happy with mail to Europe taking 2-3 days however, I had some documents that needed to be signed for. It cost £6.30ish to send and included tracking.

I was expecting the mail to go by air and delivered by the local post; oh how I was wrong. Royal Mail now use GLS parcel service.
