Yes, but this bloated nationalised company was haemorrhaging ridiculous amounts of... oh wait, no it wasn't.

Oddly I have a Guaranteed by 1pm parcel due to arrive (they still sell it as that) but terms of service state its actually Guaranteed by 4pm... I am so glad that privatising RM has improved the service.

I’m waiting on a delivery of ITFC Xmas tree ornaments. They were shipped on Nov 25 but the tracking info still says “processed through Langley UK” . Not convinced they’ll arrive before Xmas.

This week I discovered a mould problem in one part of my home.

So I've had to order a dehumidifier, damp-proof paint, wood treatment, extra refill crystals for the mini dehumidifiers for the window sills...

But of course they all show up on different days so not so easy to co-ordinate a proper plan of action.

God, life is so dull atm.

Well, hardly any point bothering now, the Royal Mail is in crisis in IP13...

Waited for [redacted*] delivery this a.m.; watched from other side of glass front door as driver sat in van for 2 mins, never got out of it at all let alone attempt to make delivery; left & then 1 minute later I got the "package handed to resident" email

*OK, Amazon "Prime" (I know, I know) who are actually even worse than Hermes, which I didn't think would be possible for any courier to 'achieve'. Cancelled free trial membership.

Royal Mail are v. good round here tho.

Next door neighbour had exactly the same experience 2 weeks ago, which led me to come to same conclusion as you, esp given amazon's easy replacement policy. However, he emailed me back 20 mins ago saying item was eventually found by another neighbour 1/2 mile away ...

Shame really; a commercial company specialising in delivery during a year when there has been huge growth in their core business (unlike the entertainment and hospitality sectors). Given they have had all year (well, since March anyway) to get ready for a COVID Xmas it doesn't say much for their senior management team...

We have been getting really odd postal times - the other day post arrived at 4.45 pm, just a normal delivery. We do have exceptionally good postmen round our way in IP3 though.

Captive market innit.

Yes, you've got plenty of alternatives in the guise of Hermes, DPD etc., but Great Aunt Maud is never going to turn her back on good old ROYAL Mail.

Exactly the same business model as BT.

Opened the door yesterday to a delivery lady.
She handed me a parcel and asked
"Can I just check your surname?"
I told her, and she said "Not Brown then?"
"No, not Brown. The Browns live at number 9."
"What number is this then? she, asked.
" Err seven, like it says just here, " I said pointing to the number 7, right next to the doorbell!

There's another "7" on the gatepost too.

This happened to my mate with someone like Yodel

Unfortunately for said driver, the guy fits CCTV for a living and sent the footage to Yodel within 5 minutes of the 'failed' delivery

It returned in an hour 🤣

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!
