B.P.R 2,798 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 imagine if everybody on THL posted a few housebricks. theyd go bust! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lapin2008 1,587 Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 imagine if everybody on THL posted a few housebricks. theyd go bust! My thoughts exactly. If people consistently did this it would cost them.. a lot! It would also mean their marketing campaigns may become financially nonviable so they may have to rethink how they actually get money through the door in the first place. In short if everybody did this it would hit both their means of getting money in and also the money they already have in. I am not sure however if this fractures a few rules/laws so obviously this is all hypothetical! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

That said the time and resource it would take to sort unwanted mail, send staff to sorting offices and if it gets too much involve senior staff to organise getting it waived is all cost to them, even if not direct financial cost but cost in man power/time etc. I bet (and i dont know) that even in the case of LACS when they got away with not paying the million odd £ mail bill, it would have cost them in the tens of thousands in admin and management costs... but again, i dont know how organisations work internally Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sussexpoacher 45 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 I got the same begging letter so i have placed their letter in the freepost envelope and added a little note about a recent case where they did not act on several reports of dogs being left to starve which resulted in the death of several greyhounds! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If i gave my mates a bag of condoms and said 'fill em up' I am fairly confident that the response would not be positive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bullmastiff 610 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) Think the idea of the blanket bombing of the Leagues freepost address was just to get it closed, so it takes away an extra source of income for them. the bill they might incur was just an added bonus! It's taken away that option for them in the future too. Royal mail might waiver a bill once but a second bill would be enforced. They can't keep soaking up the costs of sort office emplyee's sorting which mail to throw away and which to keep. On a side note xmas cards come with there own envelope and the cheap ones can now be bought by the hundred for a pound or two.... Delivery of an envelope costs a freepost address 39p apparently small or large. Edited to add if your scared the postie might lose your xmas card in all this bad weather then Jewsons are giving away free sample bricks at the moment... you could write your xmas wishes on that! lol Edited December 10, 2011 by bullmastiff 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
