I think you're gonna find cheques sent recently will turn up no problem...............It's the "backlog" that is gonna take weeks to clear up. I have spoken to customers who have sent cheques 10 days ago 1st class and i still aint had them. I wonder if they'll get a part refund on their stamp  :)

just got this snipit which was updated on the royal mail website today

"We are making good progress in getting our services back to normal as quickly as possible, but there is a significant build-up of mail that will take some time to clear. We will deal with this in the order in which we received it."

seems there could still be back logs in places then! i'm staying hopeful!!!

I used to be a postman up to 2 months ago, and even tho I knew I was leaving, I didn't cross that picket line once.It is SCABS or managers that are delivering your mail.
This bulls**t that is happening at the moment is was finally pushed me into leaving and becoming a window cleaner, so every cloud..... ;D
