PO don’t want to deliver to Aberdeenshire!
Went to local village PO counter yesterday to post a present to friends who live near Alford in Aberdeenshire. I knew it would be expensive i.e. not much change from £20. But then i was told…with that post code…. There is no guarantee of delivery OR of contents! I asked the man to repeat what he’d said. I had heard correctly? Recipients post code is 2 to 3 miles outside of Alford (25ish miles west of Aberdeen) a farm community just off a normal highway… with 4 houses. Not in the islands nor a remote mountain. I left the PO with my parcel. Contacted DPD, they’ll collected the parcel today, and it’s fully guaranteed for delivery and contents and cheaper than PO on a 2 day collect / delivery cycle. I’ve told the recipients it’s enroute. My experience says it all…. No wonder we all support Sir Alan bates!!
