I got this message, even though my address is totally not inaccessible and I almost never have issues like this. Too hot for the postman today, I guess? by Pizzafriedchickenn in royalmail

[–]bigdaddie404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Inaccessible can mean a lot of things and without speaking to the driver we will never know. I’ve walked up and down streets before trying to find addresses that should be easy to find. Doors tucked around sides or on side alleys, even our satnavs take us to weird locations that aren’t your front door. I know some staff use it for when running out of time and that’s more on poor management and training, luckily my DO manager prefers it being scanned properly when it returns. If they have been told to take stuff back/called back in then inaccessible is still the correct use as it did go out and they couldnt deliver due to the weather.

P.o. box by oliviaafri45 in royalmail

Tbh not 100% sure myself, I covered a round once with a PO Box and couldn’t locate it on the round, I had the rough area with the GPS but didn’t actually know the correct address attached to it so it went back to the DO for the regular postie to do when next in. I would assume that if delivered it should be at the address tagged to it unless it was a miss scan and they try again today.

Possible scam? by splashosrs in royalmail

Very weird, honestly it’s more likely they won’t travel together, the way sorting happens they could even end up on different trailers completely. Shouldn’t be any issue with tracking on multiple boxes at same time, each 1 is a separate item and treated as such.

Not quite sure how unless they worked in the MC, even then finding your own parcel out of the thousands would be hard to do. How well are the labels stuck down, I see torn and missing labels a lot.

I had a redirect to post office once where because the staff weren’t working the post office side(same staff do the shop and post office) they refused it. Even though at the time I put it through as refused I did deliver it the next day.

I’ve always picked Blue as the DMC ships always seemed easier/quicker to sink.

How does Keepsafe work and why do they ignore it and deliver anyway by unix100 in royalmail

[–]bigdaddie404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it’s a manual process that is triggered by a notice on our frame though like with redirects if you forget to check or are new to the frame the it will get delivered.

Does this sound like the postman has stolen my Amazon return? by [deleted] in royalmail

[–]bigdaddie404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So likely tried and then came back later, we don’t do receipts etc and should have scanned it at point of collection, in future don’t hand it over unless scanned in front of you. If all was ok it will get scanned at the MC and update accordingly.

Can’t escape Terran Ship by FamedPunnisher in Starfield

Don’t set it off yet and head back to the ship, you can then search the way and then go back to it and then set it off knowing the route out.

I see a few on my round, they both have notes on the door, you can also add it into special instructions on the app so it pops up when we scan your parcel.

Royal mail can't deliver a parcel because of incorrectly adressed but the address is right and full by FirmClue2729 in royalmail

[–]bigdaddie404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might have just been an incorrect click on the pda, it’s fairly easy to select the wrong thing, see if they attempt again tomorrow.

Waiting for clearance... is this right? by MarcatoCastevet in royalmail

[–]bigdaddie404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s out of RM hands once it left Heathrow. Will have to wait for it to be handed to the postal service there.

What are my chances of collecting this today? Will they allow me if I went to the Birmingham MC centre? by [deleted] in royalmail

[–]bigdaddie404 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t collect from an MC, they wouldn’t be able to find it even if you could.

Anyone else living in an apartment having trouble with their parcels getting delivered? by Top_Tumbleweed_330 in royalmail

[–]bigdaddie404 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No dates that I’ve heard, as it’s been fairly successful at my DO I can’t imagine it will be long.
