'Delivered By Royal Mail' Postmark To Be Used on Letters

Alan Jones of Britain's Independent reports, "A new 'Delivered By Royal Mail' postmark is to be stamped on letters and other items to distinguish post delivered by the group and its competitors."

He goes on to say, "The company announced it will introduce the new mark to most of the 15 billion letters and parcels carried by the business every year, saying it is important that customers know the difference between post delivered by Royal Mail and its competitors."

According to Jones, "The move followed a survey of more than 1,000 people, which showed that almost four out of five would welcome clarity on which company delivered which item of mail to avoid confusion."

The change will start next month.
