Royal Mail delays

pippyblocks

Hi, this is for UK sellers. Has anyone had any issues with parcels not arriving / delays in last few weeks? I very rarely get any issues with slow deliveries and this week I have had a load of enquiries accros different platforms. A Facebook group I belong to seems to have a huge number of people with similar issues. Wondered if anyone had any inside info as I can't find much out.

I'm finding things are either next day or 10 days to 2weeks at the moment.

I've heard from a few people now that RM are prioritising parcels and tracked 24 / 48 over 2nd class large letters.

I've also got a delivery for a customer in limbo at the moment too, 1st Class Large letter. Not to mention having a few parcel collections cancelled last minute which has been frustrating, especially after their recent price hikes.

@pippyblocks. That was a policy that they announced a few months ago. Fun the way that large letters have gone up in price 50% in the last year, but now go by the slowest method.
