Second class sent Thursday
The service as we know for letters is terrible at the moment but at least we try to deliver first class next day. I say try although I know it doesn’t happen! But second class sent on Thursday is not getting delivered until following Tuesday as a walks on heavy day start Tuesday, this new dm is embarrassing and an insult to people who pay for a service they are simply not getting, I’ve had complaints about second class not delivered and now we just cut off as work load is too much. What is happening to this business?

It's being intentionally trashed to get the USO watered down even more.matthew68 wrote: ↑04 Oct 2026, 21:49The service as we know for letters is terrible at the moment but at least we try to deliver first class next day.

Re: Second class sent Thursday
My Parents are lucky to get mail once a week in their area and we received mail on Thursday past with dated lettwra from 18 days ago.
We don’t get much mail but have been waiting on a bank card now for 9 days and its now i realise what an absolute s**t show of a company this has become. A crowd of greedy thieving scumbags at the top, taking the Publics money and refusing to provide the service.

Re: Second class sent Thursday
That’s terrible service, management have just pushed through dm26 with no planning or thought it just leaves you scratching your head a company the size of the royal mail pushing through these changes without even testing the walks fist! We have posties leaving after 2 weeks in the job now due to workload and stress, they say they can get same money elsewhere for much less hassle and work, with these heartless and greedy bosses they are asset stripping the business whilst they can, and yet still people come in early no breaks and run on delivery!hero22 wrote: ↑04 Oct 2026, 23:09My Parents are lucky to get mail once a week in their area and we received mail on Thursday past with dated lettwra from 18 days ago.

Re: Second class sent Thursday
It might not even get delivered on the Tuesday as if it gets in the MECH then doesn't the system hold for up to 5 days unless more mail warrants being delivered earlier? In my DO we now seem to get inundated with MECH at the end of the week but hardly any at the start of the week.matthew68 wrote: ↑04 Oct 2026, 21:49The service as we know for letters is terrible at the moment but at least we try to deliver first class next day.

If you send it on a Thursday and it doesn't get into the DTS system until the Monday it might stay in the system until the Friday, then get delivered on the Tuesday, which is well over a week after it was sent, that's only in an office with no DM26 back logs!!
