SW Streatham Mail

Post by tetcutiepie »

Hello all!

I just have a question about the Streatham area - is there a big backlog for our area, as mail is pretty sporadic, and packages posted via 1st class, are taking a week or two to show up! I know we had big issues last Christmas when strikes happened, and I just wanted to know how things are going for posties and mail this year!?

Also, are packages and letters delivered by two different posties? Sometimes I notice that big packages come early, and regular letters come later in the day... Don't know how big the package has to be for it not to be delivered via letter postie (i.e. like a book from amazon)...

Any info is welcome :)

As well as the postie, there also is a van driver who conveys the postie out to the delivery and
delivers any larger parcels that will not reasonably fit into a pouch bag.

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.
