Delivery of mail and missing mail
I am very disappointed in Royal Mail and the service they provide. I have now had 3 cards not delivered and all 3 contained money. It is very upsetting for my Gran as she is 94 and has posted them in good faith. I am also getting very frustrated with my mail being delivered to a neighbours or further down the road and also receiving mail for other people that has been incorrectly posted through my door. I am not satisfied with this.
Dangerous driving
At 15.10 on 11/09/2023 I was with my 3-year-old son trying to cross the road (Ravenswood Drive) outside Shawlands Primary School in Glasgow to pick up my son from school. The road is always busy at that time with people parked on both sides. To cross, it’s often necessary to step between the parked cars and peep into the road. I was doing just this when a Royal Mail van (reg WM60 DSU) swept at speed into the place I was standing, passing inches from myself and my son. There is no way the driver wouldn’t have seen us standing there unless he wasn’t looking.
I spoke to the driver to point out that he’d almost struck us only to receive a stream of abuse and be told I shouldn’t have been there in the first place.
Dangerous driving
19.08.2023 I was driving with my family including three young children, on our way on holiday. A royalmail van KM12EOH drove in front of me on Wakefield Road in Huddersfield. The van was driving irratically and then stopped dangerously in the middle of a busy road, causing all the traffic behind to brake abruptly. The driver did not have any awareness or...

Postmen\ women never close gate
We have CCTV fitted in our home outside due to attempted breakin recently and have had CCTV installed for added security. Our front gate is always closed but we noticed how often the Royal Mail delivery staff open the gate but never shut it behind them. This may seem trivial but an open gate can encourage potential thieves on to the property. Can you ask your delivery staff to close gates. They are there for a reason.
Desired outcome: I would appreciate Royal Mail to train its staff to ensure gates are closed. Woodston Peterborough.

'First class' post
On Monday 15th August, I took a birthday card which included a glass Robin to my local post office in Box, Wiltshire to be weighed and sent, first class, to my best friend. I put sellotape on the corners and sender details on the back. I did everything right, yet, it's her birthday today, 25th August and the card still hasn't arrived!
I know things go missing but I am really disappointed that her card and glass Robin haven't arrived, it was not expensive, £10, but these birds mean a lot to me and her, it was in memory of her husband who died 3 years ago at 50 years old. It's not much to expect a birthday card from her best friend who lives over 80 miles away.
Desired outcome: I want the card to be found and delivered to her today but that ain't gonna happen. So, an explanation as to how this has happened, and an apology.
Lost birthday card

Missing birthday cards with money inside.
2 birthday cards with £50 note in each ... addressed correctly from Forres sorting office to Edinburgh.
White envelopes.
Letters were handed to the postman at the gate of Little Rhynagoup, Dallas, IV36 2RZ because of the petrol shortage. Posting would have beena 15 mile round trip.
Handed onto the postman delivering at the gate the 2nd october 1st Class stamp to arrive for the 6th october. Letters accepted by postman.
Nine days have passed but no show.
Both addresses were identical as the cards are for twins.
Letter ... Moonpig supplier. Standard size.
Standard thickness of envelope and contents for 1st class stamp (red)
Addressed to;
31A Morningside Park.
Edinburgh.
EH10 5HD
I hear what every one is saying about money through the post and the amount of PO theft ... but the PO is a life long institution and should be trusted. !
Saturday 9th approached the sorting office in Forres to gain some insight but they could offer no explanation other than the address was wrong or the letters didn't carry the correct stamp !
Desired outcome: Where are they ?

Forced open envelope delivered to my door put threw letterbox
Received an empty envelope. Forced open.
3 keychain knives missing. I've already bought some in the past delivery fine. Wanted to buy 3 more. The price I noticed is printed on envelope. This is the first time ever I've had my mail opened products taken from it and an empty envelope delivered
GBP £17.12 printed on the envelope
I paid more for shipping than the cost of the products
Mail not delivered
I paid for 1st class signed for delivery on the 08/06/20. The item hasnt been delivered. I tried their track and trace system, which says 'We have your item at the Post office.' I've made several complaints, as regards of the 'lost/delayed' mail and have been offered a paltry £50 'goodwill gesture payment.'
The parcel contained irreplaceable photos, some dated back 90 years, and are a link to my past. I'd sent them to my publisher to use them as promotion for my up and coming autobiography.
Its a disgusting service, and an insult to my inteligence. I have to say, they dont give a damn as regards of customers.
Post
My daughter should of received three birthday cards by the 18/8 these cards were posted in Three different post boxes in Bristol all with a 1st class stamp on them. Luckily there was no mint or gift cards in them. But still worrying that they never reach us we have never had this problem before with post to our house. This makes me think that something has happened to them either at the sorting office or out for delivery!
Driving dangerous
Your driver nearly run me over KY65GKP
Driving dangerously, as I'm on the middle of the road driver so stupid was still driving towards me in speed. When I confronted him he did not say anything and drove on.
I want the drivers name and action you will take. This happened at 28.09.2018 at 2.25pm on Chrisp street poplar E14.
Why are you recruiting young careless drivers? I want some kind of action as this [censored] could have hit me and he wanted to do so deliberately!
to day 20/10/20 at 6.23/25 am i was travelling along the M42 between junction3 and 3A i was heading towards London.
a short distance after J3 the motorway splits the one inside lane the M42 and the other two lanes the M42/40 then after the chevron's the inside lane also becomes the M42 and the other two lanes are for the M40 towards oxford/London .
It was just after the chevrons that a van that was behind me pulled out to over take me as he came a long side he could see that there was a line of traffic in front of me with a gape of a bout 12 foot between me and the other vehicle i was travelling at 63/65mph and it was a good job that i was not travelling any faster as this fool driving one of your vehicle's registration KV18 WLC indicated twice and started to cut across in front of me pushing me into the inside lane of the M42 from the lane for the M40 i had to break pretty hard to stop a collision .
i flashed my lights and sounded the horn in disgust of his disgraceful driving i did not get to see him but he had a tattoo on his right forearm i saw it when he gave me the wanker sign.
as a driver he like us all are governed by the law to drive within the speed limits with due care and attention towards other road user's and to drive in accordance with the road traffic act 1988 part 1 principal road safety including the provision of under the offence of dangerous driving.
like us all i had alot of regard and respect for key worker's beside the nhs such as the posties binmen shopworker's but i'm sorry to say not for this absolute fool of a driver he is a danger to others.
i will give you 7days to reply and after that i will be in touch with head office .
thank you for your time and look forward to your reply.
yours .
Mr C.Chadwick
Your van number EC48 a fiat doblo 13 plate with one brake light trying to beat the traffic at the junction of the plaza wester hailes Edinburgh around 6pm today 08/08/19 shot up the right hand lane at the traffic lights as if turning right to beat the traffic then went through a red light in that lane then cut back over to the left lane heading up to the bypass a very common practice but not legal not what I would expect from Royal Mail employee.
Non delivery of birthday cards
On 2nd July I posted 3 birthday cards in Hemsworth West Yorkshire, one to Barnsley and two to Wakefield. The Barnsley one arrived but the Wakefield ones did not. Then on July 18th one card arrived which had been opened and taped back closed. The cards were going to Wrenthorpe, same house. I have photos of the card. This is obviously a case of looking for money, of which there was none.
Hi I posted a Birthday Card with £25 in it to my step son Graham Healy. 19 Ness Glen Rd.
Dalmellington, Ayr, KA6 7TP. 0n the 7th of August 2018. He has still not received it. It was posted within your shop at
Ivanhoe Rd, Paisley PA2 0JZ. I had put the card inside it's envelope, then into a brown A4 envelope, folded in half then sealed with a strip of sellotape.
yours sincerely

Dangerous driving
Came of my bike at junction of A3/Upper Richmond Road on 28 Nov 2017 at 9.30pm. The Royal Mail van did a U turn to come up the A3 as I was crossing with my bike. I fell off into the road. Thankfully a kind female pedestrian helped me off the road. The two black men in the Royal Mail van just sat and laughed at me. They didnt move to help or check I was ok. They simply drove off over my bike light and never looked back. I am sickened by their callousness. Vehicle reg I think was KN65XNF.

Dangerous driving
Was cycling home from work on 16/08/2013 at approximately 19:00 when I became aware of an erratic Royal Mail van. The driver was beeping his horn at another Royal Mail van, rapidly accelerating and decelerating and changing lanes. This was on Aldergate St near Barbican tube station. This alerted my attention to stay out of his way. He turned down...

Friday the 18th 7:00 - 7:15 am trying to make my way to work from Ash to bookham in the fork from the A31 to the A3 i emerge a bit late strait behind one of the royal mail super AGGRESSIVE driver with number plate MX58 HZG which nicely try to run me over with his truck after few minutes before sharply brake his truck to make me crash behind him, the reason why he was doing that i still asking myself, probable i was driving faster than him and he thought nobody can be faster tham me "this is my road" or something like that, finally when i safely overtook him he again use his fingers and gestures to demostrate how decen and nice was him to others road users. I worked in the Royal Mail for few years and i know is a rush job, but you have to leave your problems some where else not to bring them to work, as your office is your truck. I remember i left that job because of harrassment. Not very nice people to work with.
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
