I thought that was the plan until they build the new MC that Pompey and Southampton would merge

The prospectus prior to privatisation gave the final number of Mail Centres as 37. There are 39 now so there are no more reviews other than those already underway.

Things do change and post privatisation I expect a lot of reshuffling of Postcodes in the surviving MCs
