Trial D2D

[reddevils]

They've got the data from the manual parcel scanning in MCs and from packet sorting machines in MCs and the superhubs. They probably have enough data from that to generate a list each day.

A list each day? What do you mean? A postie is handed a list each day of which addresses require D2D's?

Or do the d2d's have addresses on them?

We are currently carrying 2-3 days or more of bundles of mail, many of which already have D2D's in them in addition to the 100- 200 parcels we are carrying each day.

Where do these non time sensitive d2ds fit in? Does it mean they are trialling all door to doors as non time sensitive and only for specific addresses or is this another product on top of the D2Ds we already do.

DPR drivers are the only people who could do them because a postie isn't going to carry D2D's around that may or may not be being delivered on account of them having a parcel.

It sounds like complete rubbish to me, exactly where most D2d's go anyway!

No knock no D2D, no answer no D2D.

So you take a parcel to a customer's doorstep, knock on, no answer. Instead of putting the D2D in your hand through the letterbox and possibly a card, you take the D2D back to the van...

So during the week all the people who have parcels, the doors you knock on, you hand them a D2D. So in theory a customer that receives parcels every day will receive a D2D every day or is it up to the postie to have a memory like an oracle and remember each door he delivers parcels to all week?

Possibly it's some kind of new direct marketing trial i.e. the postie is handing the D2D directly to the customer in the hope that they will actually read it? It could easily just be a load of made up nonsense?

RM should axe D2Ds and make them use machinable envelopes, so that we could sequence them. Across the country there must be a high % of D2Ds just sat under benches.
