The Royal Mail must think that the general public are mugs. They will increase the cost of a stamp from March.
The postal service is that bad, that most customers are using couriers to deliver mail.
And they now also charge extra money for delivering a larger envelope. If you buy cards - like me you can get a cheap, but good card for £1.00 it not cost 65p for a first class. And no guarantee it will be delivered the following day.
What they should do is scrap both stamps, and have just one stamp covering all letters.
