gamezone07 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 (edited) Waiting on an important package, not arrived, despite next day guarantee(12), anyone else had problems.Private company now, just hire more staff. "may arrive later than scheduled" very open ended, do they mean sunday, monday, when? RM service update "Heavy mail volumes into our Sheffield, Belfast, Chelmsford and South Midland Mail Centres meant that some mail posted yesterday from other parts of the UK to parts of South and East Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Northern Ireland, Essex and the South Midlands, may arrive later than scheduled."

ECCOnoob Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Firstly being a private company is sod all to do with anything. Lets not pretend that Royal Mail was perfect when it was state owned. Secondly, next day delivery is usually 9am or 1pm working day dependant on what the sender has used. There is an extra charge for some guarantee Saturday delivery but do you know if they have used it? If they have it might still arrive today but just later if there is backlog. I would suggest you double check with the sender to see how and more imporantly exactly when it was sent. All of the special delivery options will have time cut off.

haddy Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 Which service is it as they are delivered for 9 am or 1pm and it is extra on a Saturday and I've never known the next day delivery stuff to be delayed as this is always fast tracked. The only stuff that is normally delayed is normal post or recorded signed for signed on delivery at which there is no compensation on these if they are late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bottletree Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 As a postman of 22 years the next day "guaranteed delivery" is Royal Mails baby and god help anyone who stops it from getting to it's destination on time. No if's or but's your job is on the line. As a postie I would never hear the end of it if this ever happens. You would be fully compensated if it did happen and the managers goolies handed to you on a plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geared Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 I had some stuff held up by DPD recently, they blamed a seasonal increase in deliveries. I don't know how it creeps up on them every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
