I?ve been trying to work it out,

As far as I can tell it?s 12.30 and then 5.00 inside the post office and then 2.30 for the post box on the outside. They are separate time for each for some reason. Also at the moment I don?t think anything is being collected from post boxes on Saturdays, but possibly is being collected from the post office.

I would be grateful for any info as I post about 50 letters a day and some have been delayed quite a few days. I?m trying not to go into post offices and rely on post boxes.

I couldn't see clearly on the outside of the PO on LL what times postal collections were scheduled, so I went to a post box nearer me on which times are indicated clearly - the letter arrived at destination next day. If you're just posting a letter and don't need to queue at the PO to get stamps / get a parcel wrapped, just go to a local post box for more certainty.

so I went to a post box nearer me on which times are indicated clearly


They may be indicated clearly, but they are, at best 'indicative' and often, frankly, inaccurate. And most sadly, often collected in advance of the time stated (in arrears wouldn't be such a problem).

fair enough Penguin, but for me, it worked with instant post.

I'll obviously keep using it, and with LL PO either clueless on times / having to queue to check times it's simpler and more reliable.

    • How on earth is this possible when Rye Lane post office has already been lost? Where am I supposed to go now?? Peckham Post Office is awful and too far.  Krystal’s doesn’t even provide all the services that east dulwich does, so that’s a dud. 
    • Indeed ianr, I didn't have time to include all Royal Mail options, thanks for that extra bit, they have been spot on for me, I use them a lot and have never had any issues with delivery, touch wood!
    • People are switching to electric cars irrespective of fuel prices.  100s of millions that could be spent on hospitals and schools for example have been lost due to fuel duty freezes and a supposedly temporary reduction.  Fuel is relatively cheap at the moment.  With a stonking majority when is it time to rightly take on motorists? Farming, I simply referred to Paul Johnson of the IFS who knows more about the economy that you, I and Truss will ever know. Food?  Au contraire.  It's too cheap, too poor quality and our farmers are squeezed by the supermarkets and unnatural desire to keep it cheap.  A lot less takeaways and more home cooking with decent often home produced, food should benefit most in our society. Be honest you do t like Labour. 
    • In fact there was a promotional leaflet came through the letter box today, for sending by RM's parcel post by buying online.  There are also options mentioned for having the labels printed  at a Collect+ store or at a Parcel Locker.  More info at https://www.royalmail.com/.
