Hi guys,
I see the link to Boatmail, but is it the best? Does anyone use any of these services? I move on on Sunday.
Many thanks
James

Hi James, Can't help on which is the best as I don't use any of them. I have my mail sent to our local Post Ofice and I collect it from there. I think most post offices will hold your mail for you, if you ask. The only draw back I can see with services like boatmail is where do they send your mail on to you if you don't have an address? (and if you have an address why would you use them?)  any answers please, on a postcard and send to........ Bring back the pigeon post ;D |

thanks for the good wishes  i was mainly thinking about the mail to email bit, so i can get all my post through email and just get forwarded the important bits. |

Yes... Must agree the email bit does sound a good idea. |

Greetings
At one time I had my mail held and then directed to the post office of my choice, the service was through the post office and was called Poste Restante I think they still provide this service, I don't remember if it was free service or not, try a search on the www

I even managed to get my local council to send my rates bill via email, paid online too, very convenient. It was that or they didn't get paid so they did have and incentive. Never used a service like "Boatmail" so can't help on that one but hope the move goes well. Least the winter, such as it was, looks like being over. billy  |
