The price is fixed at the start of your contract with Royal Mail and adjusted every 3 months based on actual usage. They will not discuss alternative comp levels. We use it and it's good, but not for everyone. NO signature on delivery so not sure how Paypal will treat it as far as INR claims are concerned.

“where is my package emails”
only seem to happen with tracked and recorded
the bog standard mail seems to get there with no problems at all,
so more tracking might be worse rather than better

The price will be cheaper when compared to First Class Recorded Delivery for items weighing anything over 250g even using PPI from April. BT Broadband are using the service to send out routers so there must be ways of negotiating the compensation levels. And I suppose if it's completely tracked there's less likelihood of it going missing in the first place. #14 Yes, but it is actually tracked so the ‘where is my package’ emails get easier to manage.

Try it. We despatch directly through our sorting office and nothing is scanned when we drop off our mail in sealed bags. The only way you get anything tracked is with Special Delivery or the new Tracked delivery service. Recorded is nothing but a waste of time. #7 Ok Chris. Try it.

That's quite a lot on small cheap items. No doubt Joe Public will complain and mark our DSRs down as all they ever read about is the cost of "first and second class" and they have no idea how much more the large letters cost to post.
