Is anyone getting any post?!

[Footlooseandtethereddown]

I am not getting anything and haven’t for about a week now.
Ive got a number of gifts I ordered two weeks ago or more that still haven’t arrived. They aren’t going to come are they? I’m waiting on 10 things. They were all posted 7-10 days ago.
Im going to have to pay again and go to the actual shops.
I know they are trying to cause chaos and it’s working!

I've had 2 parcels delivered today and regular letters. Not really noticed any difference but then I'm not waiting on anything really time sensitive

We are - but when I asked my post lady she said she didn’t want the community to go without and she delivers important things like hospital appointment letters. But I suppose this is because we are a community and she’s part of it. In a big city perhaps not so much.

I had some today and some yesterday, but there had been a few days before that when we didn't get anything.

I had some yesterday for the first time in about 10 days. Received everything I'd ordered, all at once, despite also thinking that they weren't going to arrive.

Yes but very delayed

Nope nothing for ages here. I’m expecting an Etsy parcel that was posted 2 weeks ago. Our local Facebook page is also full of people who have had other people’s post delivered so I’m not holding out much hope.

I'm waiting on a package that Royal Mail has had for 10 days! Collected Nov 28 according to tracking but no update at all since then.
It's a present needed for Sunday. Feeling cross and frustrated, their online help is no help at all.

I got 2 letters yesterday, one was dated 21st November. Still waiting for a parcel sent last week (by my mum, who is elderly and stressing about it)

Seem to be getting my post as normal

DHs friend is a postman and says at his depot the post and parcels are just backing up in no particular order. We are receiving stuff in dribs and drabs some was sent weeks ago, others sent a couple of days.

I've received no post for ages and no Xmas cards at all! Either the post al service is buggered or my friends and family aren't sending cards this year!

Letters still coming regularly but also waiting on a parcel they've had since 28th November. Hoping it comes by next week.

Yeah all the tracking for mine is posted 21/22/23 Nov to about the 28th Nov.
All just showing as received.
then randomly something I ordered on Saturday arrived yesterday morning 😫🤣

I don't understand why the tracking has not been updated. Surely parcels that should have arrived last week should be moving through the system by now with at least an estimated date. It's so frustrating!

I'm waiting for an order posted 7 days ago
According to my postman, there's a huge backlog and in no date order
I'm in Wiltshire

My thing that arrived yesterday has tracking, but the tracking isn’t updated even though it’s arrived!

One thing that was sent with tracking still isn’t here after 2 weeks, yet something that was posted Saturday arrived on Monday.
I’ve had post every other day too but it’s just my tracked item that is stuck somewhere.

We run a business which relies on deliveries and we're noticing that those coming through Royal Mail are slower.

Our post has been intermittent for months now, long before the industrial action. Postie says they struggled during Covid and are still short staffed.

Im waiting for medication to be delivered by Royal Mail. It should have been here on Monday.

Ours is pretty much as normal except the days we don't get post are the strike days rather than a Tuesday (day off for our postie - he's now working Tuesdays if not a strike day and doing overtime other days, says he doesn't approve of the strike anyway and doing the overtime means he's not worse off and nor are his customers)

Just seen the postman walking down the road so hopefully!

I know they're prioritising packages and parcels and I got one the day after my friend posted it early!

Letters arrive every now and again.

I'm not sending any because what's the point in spending such a lot of money if there's no guarantee they'll arrive this year.

Yes. I saw my postie this morning
