Website a joke, service even more so. Unsure why any business uses Royal Mail to deliver, customers end out waiting weeks for it to arrive. Currently got two replacement bank cards and three parcels lying in a sorting centre somewhere with no sign of delivery. Live in london and we haven’t had a Royal Mail delivery for over a week. I’d even rate Hermes as more efficient and reliable.

What's the point of first class or second class ? items don't arrive for days. It would be quicker to just deliver the stuff myself.

Waited 60mins to be connected which under the current lockdown was anticipated. Spoke with a person who simply couldn’t be bothered to update me on a parcel. Furthermore was told it can take up to a month for 2nd class post to arrive from mainland uk to uk. Train your staff to be informative correctly.

I have many items that I have not received for weeks now and letters only delivered once every couple of weeks, they blame COVID but my area has always been so slow and very unreliable, the service and cost is shocking, plenty of people are willing to work so why not employ more staff.

15.01.2021 advised my order will be delivered between 8 and 12 the following Tuesday. The following Monday received another email.at 6.30 AM to advise it will be delivered that day between 8 and 12. NOTHING. Following day advised he was sent to wrong DO and that it was on its way STILL NOTHING. Less useful a chocolate tea pot. Because of the T & C there is nothing anyone can do about it. A disgrace.

What a disgusting service took my money, canceled the order issued no refund with no means of contact this side of 2021. No longer deserve the right to use Royal.

When I see that something I ordered has been posted via Royal Mail, I breathe a sigh of annoyance that crescendos into an exclamation of an expletive. I can't help but contemplate what transgression I had committed to offend the seller so much that I was punished with them putting my item in the hands of Royal Mail. Then comes days of frustration climaxing in the receipt of my damaged package. At the time of writing, I still have more packages in hell (mail centres) including an 8 day old Royal Mail "1st class". The only redeeming factor about Royal Mail these days is at least they aren't Hermes, hence two stars and not one.

If I could give no stars rating, I would.Royal Mail is without doubt totally useless.The only times throughout this pandemic that I have a problem with a delivery,you guessed it, it's Royal Mail.Parcels just don't turn up, can't get through to customer service,they are not worthy of custom from any company.USELESS!!!In future I will not buy from any company that uses Royal Mail as a carrier.

Been waiting for a letter for TWO WEEKS NOW. Covid can't be blamed for this weak pathetic company. Even before COVID anything to with royal mail was a gamble if it would arrive on time. All other delivery companies are still doing next day. RoyalFAIL needs to be sent into liquidation and the government needs to step in and get this sorted. This is beyond unacceptable. No mail vans have been around in days!!!

I live in Merton, London, SW19. We haven't received any post in 2021. Not just a reduced service. No service! I am waiting for some important documents and the delay is costing me. No indication if the mail is lost or will come.

Really wants to be scrapped, its like going to casino and gambling you might get lucky and get your delivery or what you've sent or might not about 50% i sent a £50 amazon token a month ago not far away never got there.If you can scan and send by email use private couriers lets get rid of bloated corrupt royal snail!
