I had a leaflet pushed through my front door, this was the first that I had heard of this. I looked in up yesterday, and as I had some shoes to return ,I decided to give it a try. I was offered a collection this morning at 11:30 -12:30. I went for that. I made a comment that it could be collected from my porch. It was collected by 9:30, it cost 60p. Bargain! I would definitely use it again.

I had the leaflet too Trisha, I thought to myself, this sounds like a great idea, and then thought I am going to ask if anyone on WT had used it, glad it was a success 😀
That is brilliant Trisha, and a bargain too. I have used Evri, ( used to be Hermes) for picking up large parcels from home, it was very easy and they weren't as expensive as I thought they would be. I will have a look at the Royal Mail service.
I’m finding the Royal Mail very slow these days. I posted a tracked letter to the USA over a week ago and it’s still not arrived. It cost me about £7. I might as well have sent it by ordinary mail! But on the reverse of that I posted postcards from the USA to my grandchildren. They were cards from Costa Rica but as I was told I needed to go to a post office there and never found one, waited till I got back to the USA to post. My American grandchildren have received them but not the British ones. We’ve been home over 2 weeks now!
Yes, the post is appalling - today I received some official letters dated 3rd March which I have to complete & return by 20th - doesn't give much time!
Royal Mail seems to be digging its own grave, I was really annoyed when I received a letter from my solicitor and then the exact same letter two days later because the first one arrived three weeks after posting, and solicitors don’t mind charging a fortune for each letter 😬
Thats bad Jazzy, surely they didn't charge you twice for the same letter - it would only be a copy and another stamp! I hate the way people are literally robbed like this.
There is a lot to be said for being part of a group, and the support and friendship that is gained from this.

Yep B, they will charge me for the second letter, because the wording was slightly re-arranged, and because I want things to move along, this matter has been rumbling on and on and I am more than a bit fed up with it 🙄 😬
