La Poste - am I mad or are they crazy?


Recommended Posts

Tried to send an express letter on Monday to UK; Sorry, sir, no such thing any more but you can do it via Colissimo and that would be 49 euros...................... Duh, do I look stupid, are they mad?

Letter posted on Monday in Le Touquet at 1400hrs has still not arrived whereas small package posted on Tuesday in London was in the letterbox this pm.

Why bother trying any more?

To be honest I'm not surprised, I would have expected to pay about that these days for express courier delivery. You could try DHL, UPS and the rest to see if they're any cheaper.

A week for a letter to arrive is pretty bad but not unusual. I find it's very erratic, I post letters in the same postbox to the same address in the UK and sometimes they arrive within a couple of days and sometimes they take so long I think they must have got lost and will never turn up, and then they do, up to three weeks sometimes. I can only think they were put on the wrong plane and went the long way round the world to get there.
