How can royal mail employees get free mail redirection
Royal Mail employees are entitled to free mail redirection services as part of their employee benefits package. Here's how they can get it:
- Eligibility: Royal Mail employees are eligible for free mail redirection services if they are moving to a new address within the UK or abroad.
- Application process: Employees can apply for free mail redirection by completing the Royal Mail's "Change of Address" form (available on the Royal Mail website or at their local post office). They will need to provide their current and new addresses, as well as their employee ID number.
- Proof of identity: Employees will need to provide proof of identity, such as their Royal Mail ID card or a valid passport.
- Processing time: The application will be processed within 3-5 working days, and the employee will receive a confirmation letter with their new redirection details.
- Duration: The free mail redirection service is usually valid for 12 months, but employees can request an extension or cancellation at any time.
Additional tips:
- Employees can also use the Royal Mail's online "Change of Address" service to apply for free mail redirection.
- If an employee is moving abroad, they will need to provide additional documentation, such as a copy of their visa or residence permit.
- Royal Mail employees can also use the free mail redirection service to redirect mail to a temporary address, such as a hotel or temporary accommodation, while they are moving.
It's worth noting that Royal Mail employees are not entitled to free mail redirection services for personal or business purposes outside of their employment with Royal Mail.
