National strike action dates and what we have put in to place to minimise disruption to our customers

The CWU has formally notified Royal Mail they plan to call on their members who collect, sort and deliver parcels and letters to take national strike action on Friday 23 December and Saturday 24 December 2022.

Royal Mail has well-developed contingency plans, but advise this planned strike action is likely to cause you some disruption.

What are we doing to help minimise any disruption to our customers?

We have decided to provide customers with an alternative shipping option. This alternative is a UK-based courier and unfortunately is more expensive than Royal Mail. However, we have absorbed as much as the shipping cost as possible and will only charge a flat fee of £6.50 (deliveries up to 2kg and based in the UK only). We hope this will help customers who are trying to have their purchases delivered in a more suitable timeframe.
