Royal Mail Robbing B&5T&RD5!!!

our postie is great. He leaves parcels at the front door, puts letters that need to be signed for into the letter box. Postie we had in Scotland was a jobsworth. Was at the sorting office weekly to pick up stuff. sorting office only opened from 7-12 and it was a right pain trying to get there. I love my postman

Yet he clearly doesn't do his job properly.

Personally, the signed for letters, I'd be pretty narked if they were posted to me without a signature. There are times when even though the postie can hand me letters requiring a signature as he sees me outside, I'd still rather stop & sign them.

he maybe doesnt stick to all the rules, but I get my post. I dont have to walk into town with the pram to pick up my post, if Im there I sign but if Im not he just pops it in the box. Glad he breaks some rules as it makes my life easier, as already stated, I love my postman

Only about 25% of underpaid letters get picked up on, the rest get posted unpaid/underpaid. Think of it this way and the handling charge is 25p. That's not much at all.
Regarding the posts about posties leaving parcels outside and posting signed for letters, they're not aloud to do that, and can get in a lot of grief for it but most postmen and women will do it. The majority of customers want it done this way, a lot even ask. Also it makes the job much easier and you finish earlier. But I'm not supposed to say that...
