Lost letter- wrong postcode

Post by cazzaline »

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone can help me. my mum posted a letter to me but unfortunately put the wrong postcode on (the one of my old address).
All the digits are the same apart from the last 2. Its quite an important letter and i'm wondering If I'm likely to get it really. It was posted on Wed first class and it still hasn't come.

Thanks
Caroline

As "all the digits are the same apart from the last 2" it will have gone straight to the correct Delivery Office so hopefully the error shouldn't have delayed it much more than a couple of working days.
