Wrong Post - as in mail


Guest steve

Recommended Posts

Has anyone else noticed a real downturn in the accuracy of mail deliveries in ED over the last few days? On Saturday 3 out of 5 letter i received were not for my address. Not just the wrong number of 2 were for different streets. My wife complained yesteday morning at the sorting office and was given a gruff "well we'll see what we can do but we cant promise anything". Yesterday we got 2 more - again for different addresses. This is really worrying because if i am getting someone else's mail who getting mine. My wife logged a complaint on an official post office complaints number. We did this about 8 months ago when we had the same problem and it seemed to make a difference then. If its happened to you please follow up so we can get it sorted.

Yes, I think it's the-half arsed temporary Christmas student staff they get in around this time.


On a seperate note, putting a sticker on the letterbox saying "No Junk Mail please" has done wonders for my quality of life, haven't seen a takeaway pizza leaflet for ages and the recycled paper bag takes twice as long to fill up. Recommended

Mark, I've thought about doing the "no junk mail" sign for ages but to be honest never thought delivery guys in this country would even acknowledge it! Good news that it works.


A few years back a guy in Australia once put a notice on his letter box (in fine print) basically saying that any sender delivering unsolicited mail to his house would be charged a "reading fee" of $20. He would then send out a $20 invoice to every company that ignored his warning and continued to deliver. The astonishing thing is that about 50% of them actually paid up. He made hundreds from it. Amongst the payees was Prime Minister John Howards office, as they put some political message through his mailbox! What a hoot.

Anyone who has complaint about the Mail services in East Dulwich is welcome to write to me as we are going to the High authority to make an official complaint... it all started few months ago with a major incident... and it is all gone worse since..... I'll be happy to hear your view "in private" and will share mine and suggest some steps you can take to complain....

    • Do also remember that, whilst this is the original there is an unrelated FB presence with a (very) similar name, which might also be prayed in aid. 
    • Yet another increase, its absolutely disgusting. I was charged £7.95 to send documents recorded delivery last week. I asked for the Signed for option that only costs £2.50 but the Post Office refused & said they would only send them recorded delivery. 
    • Thanks Admin for clarifying - I’ve now found the post they used to scrape my telephone number from. So it wasn’t a data breach from EDF, rather my foolishness posting it online 15 years ago…    Still leaving this thread here if that’s ok so that people are aware of this scam and don’t fall foul of it (also to think twice before posting phone numbers here as it can be used by any one as I’ve found out!)
    • There is deliberately nowhere to enter your phone number, name, address etc anywhere when registering an account on this forum. There never has been. There is no way to attach this sort of personal information to your account.  If someone says that EDF has given your phone number, then this is a lie. No personal information is sold to any third party and it is not collected in the first place.
