Renewing your Redirection online:
- Go to the Royal Mail website (www.royalmail.com) and log in to your account.
- Click on "My Redirection" and select "Renew" next to your existing Redirection.
- Enter your Redirection reference number and your new address details.
- Choose the new expiration date for your Redirection (up to 12 months).
- Review and confirm your changes.
Renewing your Redirection by phone or post:
- Call Royal Mail customer service on 03457 740 740 (Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm) and follow the automated prompts to renew your Redirection.
- Alternatively, you can complete the Redirection renewal form (available on the Royal Mail website or by contacting customer service) and return it to Royal Mail with your payment.
Payment:
- The cost of renewing your Redirection will depend on the length of time you want to extend it for. You can check the current prices on the Royal Mail website.
- You can pay by credit or debit card online, or by cheque or postal order by post.
Tips:
