Royal Mail gives warning to anyone living in 146 postcodes — full list

Royal Mail has issued a warning to anyone living in certain postcodes as deliveries may not arrive time. The postal service aim to deliver to all addresses six days a week.

However, it said that in some areas of the UK, postal workers are struggling to do so because of issues such as “high levels of sick absence, resourcing, or other local factors”. Royal Mail said: “In those cases, we will rotate deliveries to minimise the delay to individual customers.”

It added: “We also provide targeted support to those offices to address their challenges and restore our service to the high standard our customers would normally receive.

Currently, there are 146 postcodes affected in all areas of the UK including Dundee, Hull, Penarth, Shrewsbury and Glasgow. Aside from these delays, Royal Mail say its air and road network has been operating to schedule.

The postal service also says all mail was processed and despatched to schedule at mail centres over the past 24 hours.
