Royal Mail have today announced their new prices for 2013 and take effect on 2nd April 2013, but having read through the letter I receivd in the post this morning and their webiste I am still no clearer what I will be paying from next month.
I currently use Packetpost which uses average weights but I think Royal Mail may be getting rid of this service completely and don't see any new service that uses average weights in it's place.
I am also not clear if the new small parcel (80mm height limit) and medium parcel categories also apply to account customers.
The lowest weight band for packets also appears to have increased from 0-750g to 0-1000g.
Hopefully all will be become a little clearer in the next few days, but I suspect many retailer may see very large increases in postage costs.
Fuel Surcharging is also likely to add to the cost of postage for RM business account customers.
