Why get so hot under the collar, when RM is privatised people will be lucky to get 5 or 6 day deliveries let alone 7.

This wouldn't make sense, it obviously is for parcels and packets, but just because there would be be delivery 7 days a week, doesn't mean people are going to order more items, all you do is spread 6 days of parcels over 7 with extra costs for that extra day.

I think it follows the rather novel concept of delivering parcels/packets when customers are actually in.

But that would be delivering a service, RM don't do service.
