I went in there as I have a habit of putting the incorrect amount stamp wise on things. I was under the impression that 1st class was next day unless there was disruption. Alas I was sort of wrong.

What are the delivery times for First Class?

We aim to deliver most First Class mail by the next working day, including Saturdays. If you're sending mail far away, catch the early morning post so it's more likely to be delivered the next working day.


If I post my First Class item early in the morning, is it guaranteed to get there the next day?

Although we aim to deliver mail the next working day, we cannot guarantee delivery times. We recommend our Special Delivery 9.00am™ service or Special Delivery Next Day™, if you want to guarantee your item arriving the next day.

Is it just me who thinks they are at it or am I just paranoid? I was on their site and was bounced about a bit. So if someone who uses the web and its site gets confused (might just be me) then what about those that go on it on the odd occasion for info?

Do I deduce from this outburst that someone's Valentine Card may be a day late? Oh Dear!!
