I will gladly continue to send parcels during the coming week leading up to Christmas but unfortunately it’s unrealistic to expect to receive your parcel within the usual time-frame due to the Royal Mail strike days and the inevitable backlog which ensues.

However, I can assure that your parcel was, in fact, sent on the same date that you received a confirmation email from me.

If you haven’t received your parcel yet, it will be caught up somewhere but it will be on its way.

I’m afraid it’s simply a case of being patient and I have no control over this whatsoever and am not able to help you further!

Strike Action in Royal Mail

The Communications Workers Union (CWU) have notified Royal Mail of further strike action in Royal Mail and Parcelforce Worldwide on 9, 11, 14 and 15 December 22. Post Office Ltd is a separate business to Royal Mail and our branches remain open.

Royal Mail have made changes to the last recommended posting dates to help manage the impact from planned strike action.
