Ok Folks, how would react to suddenly finding that you are not receiving your mail/packages through Royal Mail.
I have resided at my present address for the past 30 years.
Now after an influx of new Eastern European’s’ my mail as started to go missing. My Landlord does not seem to give a zb.
Admittedly, this is not a truck related problem, would like to know how you Folks out there would handle this.
Not a great deal of help from the Post Office Official website by the way.
Any suggestions/ thoughts would be appreciated. The obvious answer is move out, this as been my Home as I have said,for the past 30 years, why should I feel I have to move out.
At 67 years of age do I really need the up heavel.
thanks guys.
regards

Moving out seems a bit extreme, perhaps your post man is a bit light fingered?? I have to say mine is fine though.
Mind you, given RM’s driving standards, perhaps it has literally “fallen off the back of a lorry” 
(Ba bum tish . I’ll get my coat…)
As ex Postie can advise you only one thing such as Royal Mail “Keep safe”. That means that all your mail will be kept at Royal Mail Delivery Office. (for thous who’s going away for holidays).
BTW. There was a guy at Royal Mail who took mail home rather delivering it to households! And he wasn’t Eastern European!

Try going through the correct channels as opposed to posting thinly-veiled racist drivel on a lorry forum 
Try posting some letters or small recorded packages to yourself and see what happens, might cost a few bob but worth a try.

Funny you mentioned. I’ve been getting mail pushed through my letter box addressed for somewhere in Southport. Opened one letter up and it read:-

Are you saying the postman’s responsible or are you in a shared house? Your post isn’t clear on this.
If it’s a shared house then what’s this got to do with one perticular company that puts things through your door?
If you think it’s the postman then what’s ‘an influx’ of foreigners got to do with it? Are you saying you have several foreign postman all trying to post the same letter to you at once?
If it’s a shared house/block of flats with common hallway, do you have a friend who can receive your mail at a different address?
If you think your postie is light fingered, contact the company as there is a department that operates designed to deal with situations like this.

Ps. I’m afraid the deluxe model requires 3xPP3 batteries (not supplied) and the answer to your question is “No, you cannot run the Rouge Massif Deluxe ■■■■■■■■ via your 24v socket.” It may work on rear-manual socket, but we cannot possibly endorse that use of our product, it being for “external use only”.
Yours Faithfully,

Eh■■? Can’t you see his user name is SCANIA KEV without a space in between? He ain’t a Russian Truck Netter residing in Moscow.
Its not known as “Royal Fail” or “Parcel Farce” for nothing, I have plenty of mates working for RM, who advise me not to use the “post” for anything valuable or urgent
Get yourself a P.O. Box, for incoming mail, and, i`d recommend Collect+ for most things going out.
I do a lot on ebay, and collect+ are very good, not cheap, but its tracked and fast, unlike RF/PF 
Iv lost all faith in Royal Mail,things just seem to go from bad to worse.
I was always getting card put through letter box saying they had tried to deliver a parcel but was not in,but I never heard a knock at the door then one day I saw him push the post through and a card saying they had tried to deliver a small parcel,so I went out and said I’m here il take the parcel and he said I haven’t got it.so he was leaving the parcels in his van or wherever and not even attempting to deliver them…
Never had stuff go missing but I have family who haven’t received birthday cards and now won’t even send cheques in the post.
On the up side I had a parcel delivered from DPD the other day and I could get accurate updates on the time by the online tracker ETA at 9am was 14:37 he turned up at 14:40 very impressive if you ask me…

Oh you gambler. 
Few years back, we received a big envelope from the local postmaster. It contained a pile of post addressed to us, all opened, and mostly connected with the bank in some way, and a letter asking us to check if anything was missing with a view to compensation. Turned out our postman had been taking home all the post from our village that looked like it might contain money or credit cards to raise funds to feed his drug habit. He’d been at it for 18 months before he got caught. Explains why I’d had to keep complaining to the bank and the credit card company that I wasn’t receiving statements. He was young/white/English and always came across as a nice enough lad. And an ex Royal Mail driver I used to work with told me he’d twice had to take lorries out to postmen’s houses to collect mail they’d been taking home, in one case a 7.5 tonner full of letters and small parcels. In both cases the posties had found the job too much for them and just took the stuff home, thinking they’d deliver it when they weren’t so busy but of course never did.

We have suffered greatly from missing post ,I have complained numerous times ,the post office say that the sender has to complain before they will act ,the problem here is that there’s a no 23 on the same lane name in the next town 2 miles away with a very very simular post code ,and we often get their post so I guess they’re binning mine .good job the post office don’t do proper haulage .
RM did have a go at “logistics” many years ago, they had a division called “Systemflow” IIRC…it crashed and burned 
TBF to RM/RF, I bought a CD yesterday via ebay, from a shop in Fulham, delivered within 24 hours, no sign of tampering whatsoever, the cost of postage was £1.27, pretty impressive when it goes right 
I dont use them though, too much has gone astray in the recent past im afraid
Have to say that out of the last 50 odd ebay purchases ive made, the only problem one was a RM delivery. Their mobile phone and email delivery notification system had been hacked, and some a-hole had me running around the local depots trying to trace a "failed" delivery attempt. In fairness, it turned up as promised, but the security of their messaging system needs to be tightened up. I still favour the new wave of courier companies though, if given the choice. Theyre hungrier for a share of the market.
A while back, I responded to an ad for a job bobtailing tractor units around, and was sent for a two day induction session at the DPD Snetterton depot. Turned out that all they wanted was an agency pool of white van men (the agency womans hubby was a manager there, and they were obviously working in cahoots to achieve this). That aside, the delivery and tracking system theyve developed is thorough, pretty watertight, and impressive.
