No strikes tomorrow or for Christmas!

Despite the planned national strikes for tomorrow, Friday 6th and Monday 9th November, the CWU have offered Royal Mail an interruption of strike action over the next couple of months.

The recent debates regarding Royal Mail could not be more pertinent – will customers revert to them? Or, have Royal Mail already lost their most profitable customer base?

Below is the e-mail communication we received from Royal Mail this evening.

Dear Customer,   

We recently contacted you to let you know about likely disruption to your mail services tomorrow (Friday 6th November) and Monday 9th November as a result of CWU strike action.                                              

We’re really pleased to confirm that the CWU have called off the planned strike action and so all mail services will operate normally on Friday 6th and Monday 9th November.

We’re really sorry for the inconvenience we know disruption to mail services may have caused you. We are now concentrating all our efforts and resources on returning mail services to normal in all areas and delivering the best possible service to our customers in the weeks before Christmas.                                                              

Regards,
