Targets for delivering first and second-class letters on time have been beaten in recent months, the Royal Mail has revealed.

A total of 93.7% of first-class mail was delivered the next working day after posting, ahead of the 93% target, while second-class post achieved a 99% performance, 0.5% ahead of the target of delivery within three working days.

Standard parcels were 6.8% above target at 96.8% in the three months to September.

Mark Higson, Royal Mail's managing director, said: "These results have been delivered alongside Royal Mail's wide-ranging modernisation programme. They are a credit to our postmen and women's commitment and dedication to our customers."

These targets must have been before the revisions had started, though we know how good RM are at manipulating figures

[DGP1]

My office is pre-revision and we haven't cleared packets for months now and most of the office streams their mail at least once a week.

We haven't had our revision yet, and we are collapsing walks almost every day.
There is something amiss with the information that RM is putting out.

[Lincox]

The same guy who counts the mail in the mech boxes I shouldn,t wonder.

[plainpat]

Cooked Books and Figures come to mind

[BELIAL]

Quality of service; traffic volumes ; profit/loss ; statutory/regulatory accounts "lies ,damned lies ,statistics , and RM statistics

[RelocatedRick]
