Think it’s down to the cheap prices they charge just now. Once they put them up they will probably disappear.

Considering some actually pay f**k all for the items they "purchase" since they get codes online to knock the prices off I'm not surprised with the increase of parcels.

They are trying to blitz the UK market by selling cheap tack in order to become the next Amazon, if you click on one advert their cookies then take over your phone with adverts.

I guess more packets = more profits for RM.

I think they've ran out of the orange packaging, most of ours come in white now.

If a company is losing contracts to Evri they may as well give!

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.
