Royal Mail Dispatch Manager Online (DMO)

[Phooey]

Hi, just had a call from Royal Mail saying that the current OBA system is being replaced with DMO in September this year. It sounds like it's going to be right faff. Does anyone use it? I can't even get my computer to download the 'test' version of it!

It's definitely happening. Royal Mails' aim is to have every delivery label barcoded. PPI is going. End-September anyone using Royal Mail 24/48 via the OBA system (i currently use code CRL) will have to switch to DMO.

Monday morning i can easily have 200 orders (low value - books), and pick & pack these myself before midday. I predict DMO will add 30seconds to 1 minute to each order. It's not good news for the business customer.
