Recorded delivery

[CG7]

I sent a letter Recorded Delivery to a DCA, because i wanted proof of delivery, so I checked back on the Royal Mail site and put my reference no in and it says that it had been delivered, it says that if i wanted proof of signature it would cost me more money, is this proof enough.

Thanks

Im sure it should be free. Just wait 72 hours and see if they put a link up to a window where you can actually see the persons signature, time of delivery etc.

If not all this info is retained by Royal Mail and you could pay for it if you need it.

Hi DanP1973,

Thats what i thought as well, it says it was delivered, but when i tried to get the signature it told me that i had to pay for it. have you actually done this yourself and did you have to pay for it or not.

no its free 72 hours and there is an image of the signiture of the person and the time it was signed for. save as a pdf and print.
good luck!

As workstoohard said I waited 72 hours, saved as PDF and also printed the screen.

If it doesn't appear on the website in a timely fashion call the 0845 number on the back of the Rec/Del slip, get through to a live operator and if he/she still can't provide it ask for it to be retrieved and emailed to you at no extra cost, they did this for me within an hour last time I called them.

Regards, Dave.

Thanks all, when you say 72 hours do you mean from when they received the cca. ?? only I waited for quite a few days to give it time to get there. will have to ring them tomorrow. cg

Hi,

I used Recorded Delivery this week my letter was delivered on Wednesday 28/02/07, as stated on track and trace. Today, 2 days later I am able to view the signature of the person who signed for it.
