I recently received a postcard informing me that I had to pay £2.50 for insufficient postage on a letter. To resolve the issue, I decided to find the contact number for my local sorting office. Unfortunately, the number I found was 08444740395, and after checking my phone bill, I discovered that this is a high-rate number. This situation is rather inconvenient and needs to be addressed by the Post Office.

08444740395 is not the official Royal Mail number. If you look it up on Google, it might come up as Royal Mail contact, but actually calling it will cost you extra just to be put through. This number isn’t linked to Royal Mail at all. I’d suggest looking up the genuine Royal Mail contact on their official website and double-check the number before you ring. Avoid using these kinds of third party services that just add extra charges.

I’m labeling this as at risk of costing you money since I noticed a weird fee of over £16 listed as an “access charge” on my phone bill. I don’t remember dialing that number myself, unless maybe I phoned them back after a missed call. Looks like it’s a real Royal Mail contact, but I found complaints about this floating around online going back to 2017 or so.

Just a heads up, this Royal Mail number looks legit but it’s actually an 0844, which means it’s a premium rate line. I called because I got a card saying I owed £2 for a parcel, but the call ended up costing me £5.70! Proper cheeky, feels like I’ve been scammed.

Beware of those 0844 numbers, they're proper pricey if you call them from your mobile. I ended up paying £7 just to get through to Royal Mail about a parcel that hadn't arrived yet. Feels like they design these calls to drag on ages, probably to make more money from us. Total con, really.

Its a real royal mail number alright but the call charges are way too high and the whole automated system is pretty pointless. I dont see how anyone can check a redelivery without paying a fortune.

I contacted this number to inquire about the status of a package sent via special delivery, which was supposed to arrive but didn't. Despite the three-day delay in delivery, I didn't raise a claim as I thought Covid-related issues may have been a factor. However, I recently discovered that I was charged £9.69 for the phone call. As a result, I will be expressing my dissatisfaction with Royal Mail in a written complaint. Signed, PJ Baldwin.

I have noticed a charge of £5.45 on my current bill for this call. It is quite frustrating, as I had to make the call to inquire about a parcel that was not delivered. Can you believe it? The parcel was actually lost by them! And on top of that, I had to pay for a premium rate call to inform them about it! Needless to say, I won't be using the parcel service offered by Royal Mail again. What a disappointment!

I was extremely frustrated when Royal Mail added £40 in charges to my bill. It took me a whole hour and 20 minutes just to get through to their customer service, and to make matters worse, I was charged for this wasted time. I was contacting them regarding a lost parcel valued at £60, so in total, this ordeal ended up costing me £100. It's absolutely infuriating.

I rang this number to ask about a delivery and it ended up costing me nearly 30 quid, even though the call was pretty short. It's shocking how expensive these calls are. If I’d known the price beforehand, I definitely wouldn’t have called. There’s no info on what the per minute charge is. Someone marked the number as safe but just watch out for the cost, it’s ridiculous.

I rang this number because there’d been no post delivered in my neighbourhood for over a week, which was really worrying. The lady on the other end checked the postcode and confirmed there was a problem. She mentioned they’d arranged a special delivery for me. But considering it was their mistake I was chasing up, I wasn’t expecting to get hit with a charge - and nowhere did it say I was calling a premium rate number. Properly annoyed, they fail to do their job and then expect you to pay to find out why!

I stumbled upon the number 0844-474-0395 while attempting to reach out to my local Royal Mail Sorting Office regarding a Re-Delivery and Customs Fee issue. After rummaging through my directories without yielding any local results, I resorted to a bit of online sleuthing, hoping to uncover some reputable contact details. As I scrolled through various sites stemming from my search, it dawned on me just how challenging it is to locate contact information for any local Royal Mail Sorting Offices. Eventually, I managed to gather some info via "My Local Services" at this link: https://www.mylocalservices.co.uk/forum/8440-contacting-my-royal-mail-local-delivery-office.html. Although the details appeared genuine and trustworthy, I couldn’t shake the feeling that it might be linked to some sort of scam. So, I dialled up the number, under the assumption that I was connecting with Royal Mail. However, while waiting to be put through to an agent, I was informed that they were quite swamped and suggested I visit their website instead. But let’s be honest - if someone has gotten to the point of making a phone call, it’s safe to say they’ve hit a brick wall online. In the end, after roughly 25 minutes of hanging on, I was abruptly disconnected. It was only later that I discovered this call had chewed up nearly all my phone credit, which was over £16.50. What a right kerfuffle!

I stumbled upon this number whilst attempting to get in touch with my local Royal Mail Sorting Office regarding a rather vexing issue with a Re-Delivery and some pesky Customs Fees. The details were sourced from a site called "My Local Services" (https://www.mylocalservices.co.uk/forum/8440-contacting-my-royal-mail-local-delivery-office.html), which appeared to present credible and trustworthy information. However, I'm now leaning towards thinking it might just be a ruse. Much like a previous commentator, Miss R Lynch, who posted on 11-12-2018 (Report #2205369196), I dialled this number under the impression that it was affiliated with Royal Mail. I ended up on hold, listening to a message insisting they were experiencing high call volumes and suggesting I check the website instead. After waiting nearly 25 minutes, the line was abruptly disconnected. To add insult to injury, I later discovered I had burned through most of my credit-over £16.50, no less!

Royal Mail mistakenly provided a premium rate number, which isn't the appropriate one for customer service enquiries. I patiently endured a lengthy wait of more than 40 minutes, resulting in an expenditure of £8.45.
