Sent first class signed for letter a week ago. Important document but have no idea where it has gone. The recipient hasn't received it. Why bother to pay for a service which doesn't work. This is the third time I have sent post to this address and none has been received. Awful service

WORST company for B2B service. I have been waiting and calling every day since 40 days for grey mailbags, made 5 orders and not single order delivered since the day my OBA account was opened!

Don't know but it would've been quicker if I'd walked and picked it up myself.

First class signed for day's 1-3days with signature.Week later no further news from posting,no signature ,no updates.You ring up they can't tell anymore other than it can take up too 10 days.You pay extra and total waste off time as you know no information.Poor service,don't waste your money on extra postage.

Parcels never arrive on specified dates. Days wasted waiting.

By far the worst service I ever used. Package (and certificate of posting) clearly states Austria (EU) as destination, however it landed in Sydney, Australia. Obviously not very happy about the situation I demanded it being send back express and was told this is not possible as I didn't pay for it.

Just about the whole service is bad+v overpriced. Weekend deliveries are a mess, their Heathrow DC is like a black hole with very long processing times and I could go on. No wonder the bad reviews, time to wake up and focus on the service, not the profit.

Took 4 weeks to deliver a 2nd class recorded packet. Refused my claim as packet had been delivered 10 days after I submitted a claim form. My customer kept the parts so was quids in as I had already sent him replacement parts since the 1st packet failed to arrive.

I had an extremely important delivery and it was arriving today! However I looked up on the site to track my package and it has been an attempted delivery???? HOWEVER I've been home all day and there was no attempt. There was no card left and no one even coming near my door. Called up to complain and it can ONLY be re-delivered or collected 4 DAYS AFTER. What is even the point for this company to exist if you have the shitiest drivers that EVERYBODY complains about.

rubbish. I am losing £500 a month due to items getting lost in the post. Royal mail does not pay claims.

I have sent an International Tracked and Signed parcel to BULGARIA , it ended up in BOLIVIA. The staff member at the post office was trying to tell me that Bolivia is a middle stop , looked quite surprised when I informed him that Bulgaria is in the EU so there isn’t any logic for the parcel to pass through South America instead of going straight to Bulgaria .... of course no updates after this has happened , no information how to track the item after it left the UK ...and whether there is a chance for the parcel to be found

Royal Mail gone down the drain, company needs to change the name to Fail mail. Trust me if there was a minus star rating it would definitely be a -10 I don't understand they say they want to work as a business but whats the point if they can't provide the service people are paying for and just bag the money. I suggest people start using other courier companies, there are many out there who does the job perfect.
