    Waiting on 3 separate packages now (1 from NI, 2 from UK), the first one sent over 2 weeks ago. I asked my postman and he said there is a delay on all packages but I haven't seen anyone mention it on here and this is getting ridiculous.

    I just recieved a package today, it was supposed to take 3-4 weeks, but got it in 5 days....

    What area are you in? you may want to check your local branch office! I have had issues in the past where parcels were not delivered and were just sent back to senders address and i was never notified! And my Postman had no clue about it.

    Strikes planned next month and current delays are possible if there some sort of "work to rule" system going on.

    Also might be this if you're in Dublin 17 or Dublin 5 - http://www.anpost.ie/AnPost/News+and+Information/MailCollectionAndDeliveryChanges.htm

    I'm in Dublin 17 and my brother was expecting packages. Got them last week but it took longer than usual.

    EDIT: Obviously I see that you're not in those postal codes.

    I have had trouble with the post in Lucan before...

    One package going completely missing - bought from ebay

    Another didnt make it, this was from creative - thankfully they sent out a replacement as this was registered post.

    Around the same time as all of those a greeting card from Australia was sent back to Australia saying no such address

    Two weeks ago another package from creative was opened on one side - however it still had everything i ordered in it so i didn't bother reporting this

    The others were a few months ago - but i do have my suspicions about what happened the others

    The first package sent arrived today, very battered but the contents are fine. The post had been going exceptionaly well recently and then this spot of bother :confused: At least they're not going missing.
