Complaints over 'atrocious' mail delivery service in Crowle

The postal service in Crowle has been criticised by the town council.

Councillors sitting on Crowle and Ealand Town Council say the standard of service, provided by Royal Mail is "atrocious".

Councillor Ron Stewart, who raised the matter, said: "The standard of delivery in this town is atrocious. It's the worst we have had it.

"At my place of work half of the two boxes of deliveries was for Axholme Academy and there have been numerous times when I've had to re-address the post."

Mr Stewart proposed that the town council writes a letter to Royal Mail to say the standard has not improved and is not sufficient.

He added: "The delivery system is detrimental to residents and businesses."

Royal Mail spokeswoman Morag Turnbull said: "Royal Mail would like to apologise to Mr Stewart for the problems he has experienced and is investigating the problems he has raised with mail deliveries to his place of work. We would urge customers that if they have a particular inquiry regarding their postal service, they should contact Royal Mail customer services."
