What happened to the letters the government were writing to every household?

[Bearbehind]

About 10 days ago I thought it was announced that the government was writing to every household in the country to reiterate the advice regarding CV

I thought it seemed a waste of time and money as you’d have to be living in a bunker to have not heard to before but that’s beside the point

Did anyone actually receive this letter?

Posting letters through doors makes it far more likely for everyone to see rather than media announcements, not everyone watches TV and/or listens to radio.

Not had mine. Waste of money anyhow.

Anyone still not had theirs? We haven't and PIL and SIL - live locally - haven't.

No, we’ve not had one yet! I was hoping for one so the kids could make a time capsule!

No we haven’t (in London)

We've not received ours yet either. Rats. I was so looking forward to framing my Lockdown 2020 (Now A Compulsory Global Multiplayer Game) "Protect and Survive" letter for posterity....

No, nothing here (South East)

We haven't had it here either, London too. I was wondering about it

Got mine last week - went straight in the bin...God knows how many people were involved in the processing of this mountain of letters and envelopes and the astronomical cost and waste of money.

We got it twice about a week ago in East Midlands

Got mine 2 weeks ago as did everyone i know in the area and adjoining city and towns here north west.

We still haven't had it. Farcical

Nothing here either. Scotland.

Nothing here.

None here (London). How pointless. If it takes this long for letters to arrive then clearly there’s no point. Advice is changing so quickly at the moment.

Like everything the government have 'rolled-out' in this pandemic, it seems to have been haphazard, chaotic and badly thought-through in the first place. No doubt they are 'working night and day' 'straining every sinew' to get them out.

If you didn't get one you haven't missed anything

We got ours ages ago - 2 in fact.

We've still.nit had ours either. Live in London. I'd forgotten all about it until.i saw this thread.

I’m trying to remember if they were names or just addressed.

Nothing here!

Still nothing here. Normal post is arriving ok and only delayed by a day or two.

I'm in London and we got the letter about 2 weeks ago.

I can't fault their response to the "extremely vulnerable" of which, I discovered last week, I am one

We still haven't had our letter. Not expecting it now. None of our neighbours or friends locally have had theirs. I bet it was a pile of poo anyway. Wasted taxpayers' money.
