Royal Mail delivery delays and the full list of postcodes affected

Royal Mail have revealed that they could be delays to items being delivered after delays in processing.

Royal Mail has confirmed that staff will do its best to get parcels delivered on time, but they have been experiencing delays earlier this week.

Not all mail was processed or dispatched on schedule, meaning some items may have been, or may be, delivered later than expected.

The website said: “We aim to deliver to all addresses we have mail for, six days a week. In a small number of local offices this may temporarily not be possible due to local issues such as COVID-related self isolation, high levels of sick absence, resourcing, or other local factors.

“In those cases we will rotate deliveries to minimise the delay to individual customers. We also provide targeted support to those offices to address their challenges and restore our service to the high standard our customers would normally receive.

“We’re sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your understanding. We will regularly update customers on the offices most impacted.”
