Royal Mail apologises to residents in Burnham-On-Sea area due to post delays

Royal Mail has this week apologised to residents in the Burnham-On-Sea area for delays to some local post services caused by Covid self-isolation.

It says some deliveries are being impacted due to staff testing positive and being in isolation.

A Royal Mail spokesperson says: “The vast majority of mail is being delivered safely and on time. We aim to deliver to all addresses we have mail for, six days a week.”

“In some areas of Burnham-On-Sea, we have been experiencing some delays to service due to Covid related self-isolation.”

“We would like to apologise to customers for any inconvenience experienced.”

Some local residents in the Burnham area say they have not received deliveries for several days due to the issues.
