Anyone else not getting post?

Has anyone else noticed that the post seems to be very slow? Been expecting two packages from relatives (based elsewhere in the UK) for about three weeks now, still no sign of them! Has anyone else been having postal problems?

Yes, really sporadic. About the third time there has been a mass isolation of postal staff round here!

Ah yes, makes sense it being due to staff having to isolate! Was just worried my parcels were lost!

around us too. 10 days and counting. People who ask what is happening on our local facebook page get shouted down with 'they are doing their best'. Maybe. But we are waiting for court documents right now which if we miss a deadline could end up being rather difficult for us. I have rung the court and they will not send it via e-mail. We are also waiting for the pin number to a new current account, and also confirmation of a medical appointment. Plus some birthday money in a card.

I get that people need to self isolate but it is a bit anxiety provoking right now for our family, and I am so worried that the inevitable backlog will mean things go missing.

Sorry to hear you are in this position @BlueLobelia. Luckily I’m not waiting on anything important but I hope your documents turn up soon x

Yes most of our staff are isolating again so we have been getting it every other day as opposed to daily when it gets really bad its once a week its not there fault obviously but they keep getting pinged

Thanks. I get of course it is no-one's fault and people need to isolate when told, of course I do. But I am still anxious!

I have records of when I called the court and to whom I spoke and all that, so hopefully if something goes awry we have a good defence.
