Royal Mail service updates : Delivery Offices Affected by Adverse Weather

Thursday 1 March 2018

The severe weather conditions affecting the country are continuing to disrupt Royal Mail's services today.

Our mails distribution network was disrupted by the wintry conditions last night and this has adversely affected on the movement of mail around the country, and hence the availability of mail for delivery today in many parts.

We'll be out delivering and collecting mail today, but only in areas where access is possible and it's safe for our people to perform them.
We'll keep these pages updated with as much information about services as possible.

We're doing all we can to maintain services at a near-normal level and would like to apologise to customers whose mail deliveries and collections have been affected by the severe weather conditions.

Special Delivery Guarantee Suspended


We’re sorry that we are currently unable to guarantee next day delivery of Special Delivery items posted from Thursday 1 March 2018. We continue to accept and prioritise the delivery of Special Delivery items at this time and will reinstate the delivery guarantee as soon as we are confident we can meet this service promise for all customers. We’re really sorry for the inconvenience caused.

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.

It says at the start:
This does not represent a full and complete list of all affected areas. We're working hard to add more detail to these pages, as and when information becomes available.
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

For Huddersfield, we were told at 6:30am so the information was available probably didn't update HQ though.

Were all deliveries suspended in Hudds today? In calderway we got a half baked "go out at your own risk"
