Default Royal Mail delivery times

I am still waiting on something that was sent to me on the 4th October!!

I have been trying to find a definitive idea of when the backlog of post will eventually be delivered but I keep finding different answers!!

Royal Mail quote that they are delivering the backlogged goods first but this is total bollox as i have received things i ordered 3 days ago but am still waiting on stuff that i ordered 10-12 days ago!!

anyone else waiting on stuff to be delivered over 12-14 days old!!?

If it's first class then it should turn up day or two after it's posted - so wait another 20-odd days and you should get it

Royal mail! I deal with the fookers every day (work in a mail fulfilment company) and they are possibly the most difficult organisation to deal with!

They are not processing back log items posted by small business's they are focusing on the business mail ie. if it come's from a bank or a place like mine!

Very surprised DVLA are having pproblems tho!

Good luck guys

I have found that sending mail to my customers during the last few days has got there and few that i sent before the strike still hasnt shown up, i was also told that the backlog would be cleared first....total bollox IMO
