The postal service where I live is so crap that to be honest, a couple of 2 day strikes won't make much bloody difference. It takes on average 4 working days for stuff to reach me. Bastards.

The thing is that RMSD suffers.. Last time I went to the post office to send something and they refused to take on any RMSD for a few days after the strike. Good job the recipient was understanding.

Yup - no doubting the premium services suffer - people will switch to couriers instead.

I got post at 2.10PM today. I used to get post at 8AM sharp. Shows how bad it's getting. Mind you, I'm surprised I got that given the strike had already started.

You and me both mate. In fact, it will affect our cashflow so much I might not get any wages next week. Bunch of tossbags.

I get the impression that many business use cheques and royal mail as just another way of extending the credit period. Its just so easy to use BT or BACS these days and its cheaper than a first class stamp (free in the case of a standard BT). I'd hate to be a small business these days and be forced back into the stone age by clients who refuse to use the 'easy' way

Suddenly I understand why people like Amazon changed their delivery methods. I'd at least want someone reliable.

I love the Royal Mail, I really do. I just can't believe how bad things have become.
