Royal Mail Strike problems? Try MyHermes, service for UK shippers

Though I am based in the U.S., I have noticed some of my shipments taking longer than usual to get to the U.K. If you ship within the UK, you may have your eBay or other business affected by the Royal Mail strike.

I got a note about this service which you may want to try, myHermes at https://www.myhermes.co.uk/. I have not tried it myself, being U.S.-based, but here are the details, from a rep there:


"Hermes UK, who operate
their own independent courier network delivering over 100 million parcels each
year on behalf of some of the UK�s largest online retailers including Next
Directory, QVC, JD Williams and Debenhams.



MyHermes is a door to
door parcel delivery service, ideal for anyone who would like to save time and
money on their shipping costs. No more time wasted travelling or queuing to
deliver or receive a parcel, we take care of that for you and from as little as
�3.99!

MyHermes will carry parcels that
weigh up to 15
kilos
and have a combined length and girth of 2.25m
with a maximum length of 1.2m on the longest side.

Parcels are collected by a
local courier (some exceptions for volume shippers) and end to end delivery is
expected within 3-5
working days.



More information on the
eBay offer is available here �

people shipping within the UK."
