Thickness of large letter

I tried posting a large letter today which measured 2.3 cm thick. Label printing for royal mail says a large letter is 2.5 cm thick. This is not the case as it wouldnt fit through the post office measurements thing. It was 3 milameters to big. So I'm having to post my item as a small parcel. Has anyone else had this problem?

You can buy large letter templates on ebay, worth buying 1 to check sizes before taking packed item to PO.

Mine is slightly under 25mm, so I know if it slides through, then PO will acccept it.
