Special delivery signed for at Mount Pleasant DO?
I sent some documents yesterday by special delivery guaranteed 1pm to a business address in central london. The tracking info says "Delivered and signed Mount Pleasant DO" and the signature reads DWS. Is this normal or something I should worry about? If it has been signed for by royal mail staff then how do I know the receiver actually got it? The company I am sending the documents to is called VFS Global if that is of any relevance, it is documents as part of a visa application so I need to make sure they actually arrive safely and on time. Contacting VFS to see if they received it isn't really an option as they are extremely difficult to get a hold of. thanks for any help.

If the delivery address is a PO Box then I believe Royal Mail staff will sign for it. It will then be handed over to the recipient when they turn up to collect their mail.

Re: Special delivery signed for at Mount Pleasant DO?
having just googled them VFS is a very big worldwide business so it is likely they get a lot of mail. For large volume businesses, it is possible for large DOs or Mail centres to process their mail in this way.
