Royal Mail knowingly Contributes to Multi Million Pound Fraud

As letter to the post office written to give advice and for public knowledge.

I was shocked yesterday when I called your office to complain at why you are allowing a mail redirection to be started without sufficient evidence of the customer’s residential identity. It seems that in spite of the impossible existence of a legal current dated document being produced by your customer, for example a recent utility bill for a fixed service like power or council tax, you are still allowing mail to be re-directed. In the circumstances an official letter or even a bank statement is insufficient evidence of residence as is, also, a passport or driving license. There is no doubt that the absence of appropriate proof of residence assists with fraudulent activities that may involve bogus benefit claims and bank or insurance frauds as well as other illegal activities.

In the circumstances relating to the re-direction from my apartment where I have lived for four months, there have been no other residents during the preceding 12 months due to refurbishment and with the request for re-direction being made for 12 months, it’s quite obvious that the Royal Mail have a caveat that is likely to cost someone in society millions of pounds every year.

My advice to you Mr Postmaster, please close your sack, your letters are falling out and people are losing money as a  consequence.
