We set up a redirection with the Royal Mail the other day, to take effect on the day we move.
We haven't had any post here for a couple of days. Today I happened to look out the redirection confirmation letter, and it seems they started the redirection last week. The redirection is to a forwarding service, which costs us actual money to receive mail as we have to pay for forwarding (or scanning, as we choose).
I don't think I dare complain in case Murphy visits again...
