A few weeks ago I sent a card to a friend in Auckland, posted in Tauranga on a Friday, hoping it would get ttor her the following Tuesday. It arrived Wednesday.
I also posted a letter on a Tuesday to a P. O Box in Hamilton. It had not arrived on Friday.
We have a notice in our local store with postal services that local mail can now take up to three days.
Why does NZ Post not deliver to houses on a Saturday, as do many other countries in order to save costs?
We're being told that due to volume declining mail services will be cut back.
Where I work the majority of invoices, statements and letters are sent via email. No wonder with the amount of time it takes to receive mail. I thought NZ Post was cutting back next year - not this year.
