Peeping Postmen
Discussion
Right i dont Know if this has happened to any of you out there but 3 items i have ordered that have been delievered over the past 6 mnths have had the Tvr advertised packaging cut/damaged as someone is peeking in.
The thing is u can understand some spotty teenager seeing TVR plastered over the packaging so therefore having a look.
I have e-mailed the companys i have used who use this packageing and will be contacting Royal mail.
If Porn companys can use discreet packaging why cant these companies.
Anyone else have this problem??

I'll cast my hand by stating that I work for Royal Mail Group 
You do need to report it - if post gets damaged or stolen on the delivery round, there's no other way we can find out. Well actually that's not completely true, but is generally the case.
Any organisation with nearly a quarter of a million employees is going to employ some bad ones every now and then, and it's certainly not just the delivery staff. There's some pretty shocking managers around too....
The internal investigation dept are pretty good, but I suggest that you keep any future damaged packaging and where possible record the date and time delivered.
Does that help?
I work in IT so I don't normally get involved in this aspect of investigation.

How do you suggest I deal with the following situation (sorry - its a bit long!):
I live down a short drive with a gate at the top that my neighbours often shut, and a gate at the bottom. As we're out in the sticks, postie does his round by van. Most times he would drive his van down to the second gate. But he became increasingly lazy and started leaving our post tucked into the top gate or hedge or with our neighbour. We complained (£2 book of stamps as compensation). It didn't get better and eventually we admitted defeat and installed a post box at the top of the drive.
Now all the lazy sod has to do is stuff the post in almost without leaving his van. However, I would expect him to make the huge effort required to walk 30 yards if he needs to deliver something recorded delivery, or a package that is too big to go in the box.
But no - he just stuffs them in the box and buggers off. Twice I was in all morning and when I emptied the box, he'd left a recorded delivery note 'you weren't in'. Well, no - that's because I live in the house, not the post box, you lazy twat. I arrived home the other day to find a parcel hanging out of the top of the box so anyone could have nicked it. I have also had a couple of parcels go missing.
I was going to complain again - but I'm concerned that postie's reaction to being bollocked will be to lose a bit more of my post.
What do you reckon? Complain to the local Post Office again - it didn't do much good last time? Lie in wait for postie and have a few words (politely -but telling him how p1ssing annoying it is).
If you're in the business I be grateful to know what you think?
Edited to say> just noticed you work in IT - so its not fair to ask you this! Sorry!!
