Keep notes of any conversations you have with Royal Mail, also take names of who you are speaking with, as future evidence for an employment tribunal, solicitor, acas or even your local citizen's advice bureau.

You might find the matter is sorted quickly once people know they are being held to account for what they do and say.

Good luck in your endeavours!
