A 2026 report revealed 29% of UK adults faced Royal Mail delays during Christmas, with 5.7 million missing critical mail, despite rising stamp prices and poor delivery performance.
A 2026 report by Citizens Advice found that 29% of UK adults faced delays with Royal Mail during the Christmas period, the highest level in five years, with 5.7 million missing important letters on health, benefits, legal matters, and fines.
Despite stamp prices more than doubling since 2020 to £1.70, Royal Mail has not met first-class delivery targets since 2017 or second-class since 2020.
Ofcom reduced second-class delivery obligations to every other weekday, effective in 2026, after previously fining Royal Mail £37 million.
The charity urged regulators to tie future price increases to performance, citing widespread anxiety and no alternative postal provider.
Royal Mail stated over 99% of mail posted by recommended dates arrived on time.
