Persistent posting to wrong accost!!

I am constantly stunned past the delivery of our mail to an address around the corner because the postman is either as well lazy to deliver or he tin can't read or he has not had preparation with the streets ?? This happens everytime their is a new postman on the route !! Some other trouble exists in that the house that they deliver our mail service too is rarely inhabited ,and when information technology is ,the lady cannot be bothered to deliver ??? I have lost cheques and very important financial information in the 9 years we take lived here . Nosotros accept complained on numerous occassions without anybody listening . For us the Royal Mail service has descended into a joke institution which has been led over the recent years by overpaid and incompetent figureheads !!! :lfo

Y'all're right most the overpaid and incompetent figureheads!
In that location can be many reasons why your mail is being constantly delivered to the wrong address. Peculiarly when a new postie is trying to learn a new round. Why does it ever get delivered to the same house effectually the corner though? Is the entrance to your house actually on the corner of the next street or something? I think because your mail keeps going to the aforementioned business firm past mistake in that location must be a defoliation betwixt your house and theirs. like the same number or or street name sounding similar? Inform the local delivery function should prove to right the problem.

Just cutting downward your post to the about pertinent matters - RM at the moment believes that with absolutley no training beyond a 2 day induction at the start of your job, that anyone can do whatsoever route with no problems and without claiming overtime. Your address is evidently one of those, like many on mine, that you need local knowledge to evangelize besides.

I don't know your accost but i matter that may help alleviate the problem is placing a sign on the entrance to your property indicating which fashion to go (if its a long drive or shared building etc). Or y'all could write a letter to the Delivery Office Manager explaining the problems and giving directions to the property. She/He should and then include these management in the walk log and this should aid.

I hope it gets sorted.

Please too be enlightened that the postman is not just shoving information technology through any letterbox. When holding your letters and standing outside your house it is difficult to imaging how you could brand such a mistake simply after reading a random mix of several thousand numbers and street names, then sorting your ain 1500 letters to 500 houses and then subsequently well-nigh iv hours of that carrying 10 stone of postal service around a 6 mile stop and start trek in all weathers to deliver over a quarter of a one thousand thousand letters per year to an unrealistic deadline then, information technology becomes very easy to lapse your concentration for a couple of seconds and assume that for example the last house yous can see must be number ane.

I'm non making excuses simply I am saying that even 99.99% accurate is withal a few mistakes per 24-hour interval and you seem to go more than your fair share. If you don't get any joy with 'bringing the problem to Royal Mails attention' then try taking a stride dorsum and seeing for yourself why the mistake is actually being made, you may be able to gear up it easily.

I feel sorry for anybody having problems with The Purple Mail. The service is an absoloute joke. My postman doesn't even bother knocking the door now considering I used to leave for work early in the morning, he thinks I'one thousand not going to exist in. I'm forever going to the mail office centre to pick up small packages that won't quite fit through the letterbox, but even though they don't need signatures, he won't leave them, simply because he can't be bothered to open the large box by the side of my door.
The postal service office ? Waste product of time!! When they all lose their jobs and the service is completely obliterated, then they will mutter. Like all of our institutions are becoming, Lazy, Unreliable, Scruffy and adopt an 'I don't care mental attitude'

Q. I'm forever going to the post function centre to option upwardly minor packages that won't quite fit through the letterbox

A. Become a bigger letterbox, don't social club then much or use a courier then y'all can travel 50 miles to collect your stuff..........simples :Very Happy

So keep on moving, moving, moving your anxiety
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost trip the light fantastic toe beat
Just keep on walking downwards never ending streets

Small-scale items are the same as big items. If they don't fit through letterbox they don't fit through letterbox.

It is not that he can't be bothered to open your (unsecure box) , he's protecting your mail.

Believe me he volition accept knocked on your door. It'south far quicker to get you to respond than stand filling out a 739 card.

Promise you apologise for your comments in y'all next postal service.

I wouldn't hold your breath...it wouldn't affair if yous turned upwardly at some people's door with their mail service freshly ironed on a silver plate....they would still complain.

Non half as much as the customers will squeal when TNT gives yous mail 3 times a week if yous're lucky and HDNL start throwing your precious small packets from the van door in the full general management of your firm.
The staff at least tin can get another job...the customers will become,in some cases exactly what they deserve...not a lot.
