February 01, 2018 at 1:54 pmHi I have worked for UK Mail for just over 3 years. This is the second time in less than a year that they have cut our rates, 3% in April 2017 and now by another 4%. I have just gone back and compared what I did last January compared to this January and I am doing on average 7 drops a day less now than compared to this time last year. I am doing 1 less postcode than I did last year but as this was a small built up area compared to what I am left with I am in fact doing more miles. So their claims do not seem to add up.

February 20, 2018 at 10:36 pmBeing self employed in the courier game is now a busted flush.DHL/UK Mail have given us 2 pay cuts in the last year.They also have cut the Saturday rate for delivering DHL parcels.In-Post collection rates cut as well.Their claim of increased deliveries is a joke.They take on more drivers,thus diluting areas.Moral is low and its only going to get worse.. theyve got you by the balls because they know theres plenty of others to take your place.
