Certainly better than the Philippine Postal Corporation!Originally Posted by Tawi2
Its not much but its better than nowt
I have Postman Pat coming to the office everyday and he is the sweetest. He is even coming back to their depot when I am expecting something which I believe delivery is being delayed.
I thought Royal Mail is very trustworthy as well. A few times that my old mother in law puts money on the post for my kids (£5-£10 only) but we always get them.
And here's the Philippine version:
I sent a £10 note to my sister, enclosed in her birthday card. She didn't get the money -- didn't get the card. I know it's advised not to send money by post, but hey, taking it is stealing!
By the way, the £10 is not a birthday present. It's a test to their local postman if they can be trusted with other stuff, ie. electronics, etc. If they're interested with £10 which is only 790 pesos, then the more with phones, cameras, etc. It's a shame, but one of the bitter truths about the system.
