Hey Baytree,

Lovely to see you on here again.
But I'm sorry to read that you are having problems with the local post.

Our house doesn’t appear to be having any postal problems. I have a steady stream of bills that arrive with alarming regularity.

But your postal problem has got me thinking about what has been delivered to us incorrectly and what has never arrived.

I’m not sure if this assists but here is my very quick analysis and conclusion:

I've lived on Woodcombe Crescent for nearly 15 years. My calculation (using an ancient Texas Instruments calculator on my desk) has it that we've about 4,692 potential mail deliveries. (And I've not even included the twice-a-day mail deliveries that stopped some years ago.)

In all that time I can count on one hand the number of incorrect deliveries. So, my bit of anecdotal evidence would suggest that Royal Mail have been rather accurate. Although, the amount of issues others, we are reading on here, are having may be hinting at some local systemic problem.

For your final question, this part of the Royal Mail website may provide some assistance.

Although not quite the same problem as you, showtunesgirl’s Royal Mail Twitter activity certainly produced good results.

Anyway, good luck and I hope your missing letters arrive post-haste.
