Royal Mail Postage Price Increases, 2013

on Thursday, March 28, 2013

As many of you will have heard, Royal Mail has announced they will be increasing the prices of postage as of the 2nd April.

This seems to be due to a new sizing system for parcels, where there will now be small, medium & large pack / parcel sizes, with the pricing relating to these. This in some instances mean the prices will rise by over 130%! In addition to this, the compensation levels for lost mail will be more than halved from £46 to £20, meaning a higher cost for insuring large orders.

Unfortunately these changes will have a direct impact on owners of small businesses like ours. Whilst we will be doing everything we can to minimise the costs that we pass onto our customers, sadly this will affect our postage costs and a result our P&P prices will be increasing at the beginning of April 2013.

Please help your favourite small businesses by signing this e-petition against the changes. It'll only take a few difference and it could make a real difference for everyone!

Thanks so much for your support!
