royal mail doorstep collection
 

been invited to take survey to see if im elegible

anyone else get this?

if royal mail can pick up post from the doorstep rather than going to the post office to drop off i see this as big advantage.

yeah I have it, need to be doing 15k a year to get it for free. Has to actually be 15k in 12 months too, I remember getting irate with them when they wouldn't give me it when I started going over £1250 a month

Literally first time I hear about this... Interesting stuff, for future.

Luckily I live 2 minutes from the Post Office and drive, so its not really a problem at the moment, but might come handy in the future. I currently spend around £800-1000 a month with Royal Mail so when I grow a bit then it'll come in handy.

I have thought about this as I spend £600-£1000 a week with the Post Office so it would be free to me, but I havent looked into it.

Do you need to have franking labels or are they happy with handwritten ones and they process them same as the PO with recorded labels etc?

Also, having a mail van come daily and taking three bags of mail bags out of the house will arise suspicion, and if the scallys see all that coming out, think about security!
