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.

Still a mystery to me who you are though.

Would I be correct with the initials SE or NR ?

So! "The man from the Post Office"
What is your background?
I have got a lot of questions but I'd like to know how much I can rely on your answers?

The Horizon produce a 'A' Label for BFPO items -this is what RM have requested.

The staff instruction is NOT to add any airmail labels etc, or country name.

Is this sufficient or should a different identififier be used for BFPO letters etc?

(BFPO parcels have a 'BF' identifier)

Servicemens Name
Section
Unit
Station
BFPO 12

bfpo letters

Post by morselll »

i have seen the bf horizon lables what is happening here is that the post office are using A or airmail horizon lables, subsequently bfpo is being sorted as air mail what needs to be done is all post offices need to be alerted to the fact as people are being over charged for bfpo
