specific delivery has 2 reward. First, this is a assured next working day delivery, yet in basic terms from whilst the object is published. in case you have been paying a third social gathering at 5.0 pm this is possibly that they does not submit till right here morning, and the assure could run from then. 2d is risk-free practices. The SD merchandise is signed for interior the mail device every time it differences palms. The postman who collects it from the PO signs and indications for a sealed bag which contains those products, and from there on this is signed for all the way till you sign for it upon delivery. it is the reason it expenses extra and why the reimbursement provided if it does get misplaced is that plenty bigger.

As long as you put it in a post box that hasn't yet been collected (!) check the time of the last collection on the box, it should be next day.

I have no faith in the Royal mail!!!
It's that bad I have resorted to using carrier pigeons, at least that way I can expect it getting lost and know the reasons why!!!!
Sorry I haven't been any help.
