Signature Required stickers...

Post by fishtank »

Those red RM ones you get on International Signed for items.
Where have they gone?
Or is it just me?

No. I haven't seen one in weeks.
Barcodes on international items but no request to obtain a signature.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

Is it true that no red sticker, no signature on international items?

I haven't seen them recently either, good job that I check to see if there is a bar code and scan it anyway (even the US and Australian ones that don't require a signature).

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.

Noticed same - has the country list we have to 'sign for' changed ?? Have they(whoever "they" are) run out of stickers ?? Or is it up to us ?? As it stands ... no sticker, no problem - straight thru the letter box (if it fits :angel )
"We're under model" - oh no we're not - stick your lapse elsewhere ...

I've not seen one for weeks either. In any case I've heard that the PDAs won't accept the non RM bar codes anyway

Have you noticed recently some Tracked Items with 'No Signature Required' written on the label
and with no solid dot before the Item number on-screen ( used to indicate 'Signature Required')..
.. when you press 'Delivered' on-screen you're required to type-in the surname and get a signature? :d'oh!

.. or is it just me?

These are irritating me. I must have posted a few by accident considering my eyesight isn't the best.

Nearly the same but saying no signature , but when you scan the dot appears and you need a signature, puzzling lol
