I think she was telling me that the Post Office have a lot of thieving bastards working for them [/font]
Thinking about the Post Office in general, they make me wonder WTF is going on with them.
I'm sure with all this junk mail that if you write "return to sender" and put it in the postbox, the originating Company gets charged for it being delivered back to themselveswin win situation
Went to pay fee on-line but was told number on parcelforce letter was incorrect, so I called the telephone number on the letter, that is a premium 03XX number.
No it doesn't. There are certain items that will get returned to sender and there are others that get binned. It is up to the discretion of the manager in charge of that department. Anything that is obviously junk mail being returned to sender gets binned or 'killed' as it is referred to in the Post Office
03xx numbers aren't premium rate, they were a replacement for the old 0845 numbers and should cost no more than a local call. They are usually also included in free minutes on mobiles. See https://www.ofcom.org.uk/phones-telecoms-and-internet/advice-for-consumers/advice/what-are-03-numbers
Putting the junk mail into the pre-paid envelopes that the junk mailers send sometimes is rewarding though,
