Why do you lie, about trying to collect my item. 2 posties were on my road in the morning and none of them even came to my house. I left my item in the porch. Is it really that hard to open a door and pick up an item? Or do you need to go on another strike and ask for more money?! I bet tomorrow they'll do the same again! I am not holding my breath. Let's see what happens! Idiots working for an idiot company!

Does anybody from Royal Mail even read these reviews??? Possibility of only receiving mail every 3 days. I am still waiting for important papers sent nearly a week ago that still haven't arrived. I simply do not trust them anymore to be reliable.

This company just gets worse and worse. No matter how many times you complain the issues just keep on happening. All the good people are leaving Royal Mail because they have had enough and more and more people who can’t speak English who don’t care about customer service are making Royal Mail a shocking company. I just wish someone like DPD or UPS would take over Royal Mail and fix it. It is 100% broken and have no good words to say about them. Lied about making delivery Post going to someone else Parcels thrown at my door then walked off Left a card didn’t knock door walked away with parcel threw it in the van I chased the postman and he denied he tried to deliver it even though I had a card. Then he said it was a different postman. Disgrace. Vans speeding at high speed and a housing estate driving in the wrong side of the road.

Failed to deliver, lied about attempting delivery, saying that no one was at home. In more than one ocassion. One of the worst services I've encountered.

Failed to deliver my tracked parcel and declined my compensation request. When asked them for guidance on what evidence was needed going forwards (as I don’t trust them to deliver parcels successfully in the future) they continually sent me non replies stating they would not change their decision. I’m not asking them to change the decision, just provide guidance! Not using them going forwards so another customer loss. No wonder they are losing money ! Don’t trust them with your parcels!

Used the Signed For service, which is next day delivery. It's the 7th day and the item still hasn't been delivered.

Havent got a good word to say about them. How they have the audacity to call themselves 'Royal' mail, beggars believe!! Not to mention how they justify the price increases. Their tracking system never says anything but 'awaiting parcel'. Not only that but I would like to know how something that comes from 6,000 miles away and gets to the UK in record time then takes over a week to get to Yorkshire from London.

I posted a parcel on Dec 27 and it has simply disappeared. I don’t know the procedure when this happens so I phoned customer service and spent half an hour listening to the recorded message saying I should be respectful and polite etc. Shame their customer service agent didn’t take note. He seemed combative and aggressive from the outset and after a while, with him suggesting I was an idiot for not knowing the procedure, I asked if he could speak to me more politely. Big mistake. At the end of the call I asked how I could get the call reviewed he said I was trying to get him sacked. I don’t want to get anyone fired but I don’t want to be spoken to rudely when I was simply and politely asking for help. Royal Mail has become a disaster from top to bottom. It’s expensive, inefficient and I would not ever want to contact customer service again.

Sent a parcel in track 48 on 2 Jan, got an email on 4 Jan saying that the parcel was in the local office and will be delivered shortly. Today is 10 Jan still no email, no update. The only way of contact is the AI chat which went round and round giving me the same information. I have spent so much time to look for a phone number or email, unfortunately there is none. And it is the most frustration part of the whole experience. That meant no one will look into it and I have to wait for another 2 days before I can make a claim!

Fulham Delivery Office Opening Hours Royal Mail Fulham Delivery Office spends a lot of the working day CLOSED. Please don't think this is a joke; please go Google Fulham Delivery Office Opening Hours. You will see for yourself. I would like to see the management responsible for the policy sent to the GAZA STRIP, along with their wives and children.

Do not use Royal Mail to deliver anything of value. I paid for insured delivery up to £750. Turns out it was only £500. They broke the item in transit. I have provided all the information needed and they’ve now auto closed my claim. In fact it’s impossible to submit the claim without including the information. They have not come back to ask for any missing information (which I don’t believe there is) and have just closed it. They make it nearly impossible to contact them in the event of a claim. I now need to explore what legal action I can take against them - firstly for the fact they broke the item and aren’t paying out but also because I assume this is the regular way they do business and therefore it’s also FRAUD because they have taken money for a service and haven’t provided it. Also now need to investigate if there is an ombudsman/regulator that I can report them too. All this extra time and effort I am having to put it because ROYAL MAIL DAMAGED THE GOODS IN THE PACKAGE.

I waited 3 days for a next day delivery u paid £9 postage for! And I have another next day delivery that has taken 2 days, it said it was out for delivery this morning. It is now 16.30pm and it still hasn't been delivered! It won't be delivered as the postmen have all stopped for the day. Absolute farce of a company!
