Email to Postcomm fired off.

Post by mclovin »

In reply to their failure to see what was coming.

Email I recieved 26 January 2010 regarding later finish times.

Hello

Royal Mail have not informed us of any changes to the 2 / 3pm times.

Postcomm’s remit is to protect the one collection and one delivery per day at a uniform price however the times of collection / delivery are not included in our remit, therefore this remains with Royal Mail.

However, Postcomm would not welcome any change that led to a deterioration in service and will monitor the situation. I will highlight your concerns to Postcomm management

Regards

Email I just fired off.

Hello again.

Not even 3 months down the line and RM and CWU have an "agreement" which sees delivery times increase to 3pm and 4pm, INCLUDING Saturdays. What exactly is the point of Postcomm if you let RM just do as they please against the wishes of their staff and more importantly, the customers whose mail deliveries you are there to protect. There are already postmen and women up and down the country who cannot complete delivery and either take mail back or have to leave it in, this mail is left for the following day in many cases. How exactly is this a good service?? Its deteriorating fast while Postcomm sit and watch. And with a later finish time of 3pm and 4pm even more posties will be handing back or cutting off. This "agreement" is nothing short of a disgrace. Modernisation?? Its a joke.

CAJ.


Cant wait for the reply.

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.

Good work, however to ensure you get a reply and the attention you deserve you should have asked specific questions eg
What is Postcomm doing to ensure later finishes are not introduced?
Is Postcomm being consulted over the changes to service as outlined in the New Agreement 2010?

let us kow if they do get back to you.
