Royal Mail Deliveries

[spex4you]

Hi.

Is anyone experiencing Royal Mail delayed delivery issues?

I am unsure if they have started the alternate day deliveries yet, but 2nd class large letter are taking up to 7-10 days at the moment in certain areas,

Loads of INR being opened.

Many thanks

Oh yes. Second class is indeed taking 10 days or more. I am getting letters dated at least 10 days ago. Loads of INR s opened and on our Amazon store as well. So bad I am going to find another career and close our eBay and Amazon store after 25 years trading. It’s simply not worth it anymore

Found this yesterday, hope this helps with buyers complaining and show that there is delays being reconigsed by royal mail themselves. good luck everyone.

As a buyer, I've definitely noticed that I don't get any eBay items on Saturdays that have been sent by 2nd Class post.

eBay's EDDs still often state a Saturday date for delivery, but I know from common sense and from reading the discussion boards that EDDs need a major overhaul!

Royal Mail has a service updates page on their website.

The problem is it doesn't show previous bulletins, so not so much use for trying to defend late delivery claims.

My postcode is on that list, I think it was Friday I received a bundle of mail which was probably a weeksworth.

Not noticing any major problems yet - a lot of the items I posted 2nd class Wednesday were delivered yesterday (Saturday) which isn't supposed to be happening by now I thought.

yes I'm noticing some Large letters taking 2wks.  I've had to refund a few but I'm just putting claims in.

Aren’t you getting INRs opened therefore affecting your metrics?
