Definitely send it recorded so you have a record that they have actually received it 👍

I learned the hard way and had to fill everything out again when they said they hadn't received it 🙄 I now send all correspondence via recorded delivery.

I know. I now also make sure I've made a copy of the forms before posting. Good luck venturing out on such a miserable day!

Always send recorded delivery. You have a written receipt of postage, and for about 60p more can have it signed for as well.

No excuses that they have not received it.

Hi . I sent mine recorded. I wouldn't send 1st class though as the post is not guaranteed to be delivered on time at the moment. I received a recorded 1st class letter yesterday sent 1 week ago!! Good luck x

Hi Definitely send it track and trace, then you can track its progress.

When I did mine I got a photo once it arrived.

Good luck

Goodmorning I always send paperwork signed for as you have proof of receipt and bit cheaper than record delivery I think sent a letter the other day standard envelope and for 1st class signed for was £2.72

Absolutely! Every thing we have to send important forms like PIP and other benefits go by registered post after had a text reminding us our forms need to be sent in,??

Not amused. was it lost? who's to say? They can't say anything if you go and take it to the P.O I think there is some dodgy goings on from them! I also photo copy the forms, Just incase Good luck

Not what you're looking for?
