Delays due to Covid-19

Due to the team working from home, processing hard copies of items may be delayed, please be patient with the Letterbox Team.

Please do not contact the team unless at least three months have passed since your letter was due. We apologise for these delays and are working hard to process these as quickly as possible.

We do not acknowledge receipt of letters, but please rest assured that you would be made aware if there was any problem with your letter being forwarded.
