Has anyone else looked at the new 739 card and scratched their head ?
There is now a box to tick to say "No Access" my question is, if you can't get to the letterbox, where do you leave the 739 ?
Another idea dreamed up by someone who has never done a walk

It's for time locked access flats, the postman can deliver the card that the van driver can't get in................at least that's what I think it is

If it is not possible to deliver an item or P739 card to a building where access is governed by a controlled entry system (such as time locks), a completed P739 card must be attached to the item, the item and P739 returned to the delivery office and a P4306 label added to the item.
You must attempt to deliver the item on each following working day (maximum 18-day period). On every occasion,the item must be taken out with the completed P739 card. If it can’t be delivered, you don’t have to complete a further P739 for every delivery attempt of the same item, but the P4306 label must be updated each day.
If and when the item can be delivered, the P739 card must be taken off the item, returned to the delivery office and destroyed.
However, if access to the building is possible but no one is available at the actual address, then the P739 card bearing the initial delivery attempt date must be delivered and the item returned to the delivery office as normal to await the addressee’s collection.

Re: New 739 Card
There is a bit at the top of the label that states something like:
We attempted to deliver an item........
When we started using them we had about a dozen people turn up at the caller's office looking for the item.....

Re: New 739 Card
whos insane idea was it to re-attempt delivery for 18 days ?
I dont see why RM takes the responsibility of having the item delivered when there is obviously unsatisfactory means of delivery to the address
