I had important documents that needed to be delivered, paid £30.00 for a Guarenteed before 9am delivery, posted out at 9.30am on a Thursday for Friday Delivery, not delivered, not tracking for the day it was supposed to be delivered, got tracking on the Saturday that there was attempt to deliver, not true never even left the depot, called them and had t go and collect form sorting office. I have applied for a refund lets see how that goes. Really not Happy.

Repeated long delays of parcels. Tracker is useless, as says delivered when no delivery made. Happening consistently.

Would never bother sending anything with royal mail, they won't deliver it, even when it costs you £7, won't refund you and then just cause you extra frustration and expense by not answering the phone to you (after 10 minutes on hold they finally tell you you will be waiting another hour), the post office tell you to go online and the website doesn't allow you to do anything. It's a national disgrace.

Appalling postal service, with priority given to parcel deliveries over ordinary mail. But ordinary mail can include very important items, and 1 or 2 deliveries a week are way short of agreed service levels.

Waited in all day for a delivery, updated to say would be later, then said the delivery had been attempted but no answer which is completely untrue, I was at home at the time, and if they attempted why not leave a card to collect, they did neither.

Royal Mail is the worst of the worst delivery company. Almost every time I have problems receiving a parcel if it is delivered via Royal Mail. Deception, irresponsibility, terrible unpunctuality and indifferent attitude towards the client - this is what Royal Mail is now.

4 times I have booked a parcel uplift,4 times they have told fibs as to the reason they could not collect(there was someone in the house all day).If I had looked at the reviews before taking this action I would have acted differently.Terrible service.

Absolutely appalling service Post man dont even bother to access my letter box and I live on 2nd floor. Dumping my confidential mail on starcase is not uncommon. A hudge mass of my consignments , both as recipient and sender lost without a trace. Service by RM appears to be a third world country. Complaining is just waste of your time

Appalling service! I paid on line to have a parcel collected but after EIGHT days of not bothering to call I had to drive it to a post office myself! EVRI every time in future.

I've gotten to the point where I feel grateful when a parcel actually arrives! They're often just left at the local dispatch office with no attempt to deliver or notify they have it. I was sent a package - "Guaranteed by 1pm delivery" for 3 days ago. Tracking says it got to my local D.O. and that's the last I've heard of it. I'll have to head over there tomorrow to pick it up. And a package that was posted first class recorded over 2 weeks ago finally arrived today; and I felt grateful.

Every other delivery service is able to ring a door bell. Pretty sure they lied about an attempted delivery, never got that red slip.

Not fit for purpose. Bottom line they don't care & can't cope with demand. Tracking not updating for 5 days . Really. . Staff from our local delivery office said its not a technical issue they were hacked so now buyers will use the loophole to claim.a refund AND keep the item. Ridiculous...and imagine this at Christmas. Lost a lot of loyal customers after this week & 97% 1 star reviews on trust pilot too. Shame on you
