Loss of D2D contracts?
I Wrote-During Covid-Which is still relevant now
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.

Re: Loss of D2D contracts?
I do not think Tesco deliver leaflets - perhaps not anymore...
The Coop - do they even have the money or the shops these days. Our Coop closed a few years back and replaced by Asda and they do the leaflets but I think it is targeted...

It alternates between companies, if we don't get morrisons or farmfoods one week then you'll see someone else delivering them. Good luck to them, we simply haven't enough time to do them with our workload.
To get customers to like us again we should have targeted d2d's not boring ones like boilers or domino's but local garden centres or community leaflets etc.

Why are lino's paid full-time ??

The reverse.
18 months ago, or so, TNT were delivering leaflets on our patch. Not any longer! I reckon we’ve seen ‘em off.
I imagine that the people doing them were paid a pittance and, consequently, they didn’t give a monkey’s where they were dumped.
The advertisers got tired of shelling out for a rubbish service.
A bit like the early days of Sunny Delight, everybody turned orange and then started to worry what the f**k it was doing to them.

Re: Loss of D2D contracts?
We get co-op often still, but I've also been on delivery and seen them in letterboxes from someone else so it appears they spread the contracts between RM and other deliver companies. We still get Tesco, Morrisons, Iceland etc etc though our office isn't particularly heavy for D2D. 4 lots is usually the most we get and the average is probably 2 per week.POSTMAN wrote:Straw poll thingy,Tesco and the co-op leaflets are being delivered by not sure who but not us!
