Royal Mail tells customers on its website: “We aim to deliver to all addresses we have mail for, six days a week. “In a small number of local offices, this may temporarily not be possible due to local issues such as high levels of sick absence, resourcing, or other local factors.” The postcodes affected by the issue received the exact same warning from the Royal Mail yesterday, labelling these sorting offices as the “most impacted” by these problems. Over the weekend, the service warned of similar problems across 87 postcodes, which followed an alert for 90 postcodes last week, and 153 postcodes the week before that. Amid recent delays, Royal Mail has updated its ‘Something for you’ cards to include a QR code and nine-digit number to let customers find out the location and status of their parcel online. Last week, the service also announced it would trial a new fleet of electric bikes to speed up deliveries in London, Brighton, and Cambridge.
