Yes...
Are all postal services included in the universal service?
Postcomm has decided that the services that make up the universal service that Royal Mail must provide to customers are:


priority and non-priority mail services (letters and packets) up to 2 kilos (Royal Mail’s First and Second Class mail service and bulk mail services)
a non-priority parcels service up to 20 kilos (Royal Mail’s standard parcel service)

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Royal Mail Standard Parcels are covered by the USO. Parcelforce parcels are not. They are a courier, not a postal service.
