Meanwhile back at the ranch...



While Tweedle Dumb, Tweedle Dear and Tweedle Noodle Doodle, try on their bullshit - the world has passed them by.

The start-up has partnered with courier companies Fastway, Couriers Please and now Toll, borrowing on their large national delivery network to offer the parcel service across Australia. Door-to-door also means time is not wasted lining up at the post office.

In terms of pricing, this is how Sendle compares to Australia Post according to the start-up:

Size     Australia Post pricing     Sendle pricing
National 2kg/8L     $12.15 – $23.95 (1-2kg)     $10.75
National 5kg/20L     $15.30 – $40.60 (4-5kg)     $14.75
National 10kg/40L     $20.55 – $68.35 (9-10kg)     $18.75
National 2kg/100L     $33.15 – $134.95 (21-22kg)     $24.75

It’s worth noting that Australia Post doesn’t do a flat rate for standard parcels.

The basic charge for parcels over 500g and up to 22kg is $10.05 for destinations in the same state and $12.85 for interstate destinations. On top of that, there is a distance charge per kilogram which can range from $0 to $6.
 
If you’re an enterprise sending out a ton of parcels everyday, you’re probably getting a better deal through Australia Posts’ special business contracts but if you’re an SMB or just an average consumer looking to send the odd parcel here and there, Sendle is an option that could be worth trying.

Fuck the Australia Post National Crawl Center

Awwww Australia Post.... Terrific.  People are so impressed with the service given by so many people in Australia Post.... The universal "Attempted Delivery" card being placed in the mail box, when the driver not only didn't bring the parcel, they never even came and knocked on the door.... Outrageous prices........ Parcels and letters going missing..... Registered mail never arriving, or getting signed for by the contractor and disappearing.... The tracking system that doesn't..... Mail taking 3 weeks to be sent from one suburb to the next......  What could be politely described as the "Go fuck yourself" policies and customer service when things are damaged or stolen.....  Packages "that could not be delivered", that end up in some Post Office,  far away, and the staff there,don't give a shit, can't find it and stuff goes missing and the customers get the run around etc... And REALLY BAD customer service..... The National Call Centre's...

Post Offices + PO Boxes = Pffft.

https://www.facebook.com/australiapost/posts_to_page/ ‎ Deanne Hanchant ‎   to   Australia Post 15 hrs  ·  We have a Post Office box and most of our mail is addressed to it, however, there are some Government departments and overseas deliverers that will not mail to a PO Box and insist on a street address. We do not have a street delivery where we are. The local PO has told us that anything not addressed to our PO Box will no longer be put into our box but will be kept inside behind the counter as per Australia Post advice.  When I rang Australia Post to query this they said it is  NOT the case in an area where there is no street delivery (which is what we were told when we first got a PO Box) and it is the local PO who have made this decision, not Austpost. We took the PO Box in the first place so we could actually get our mail because we couldn't get to the shop when it was open! This new policy will affect a number of customers. Do we all just cancel our...

Australia Post gets a Snake Oil Salesman as it's new CEO.

Image
Vitamin company Blackmores chief executive Christine Holgate will be the new chief executive at Australia Post. First comments: Ms Holgate said she felt privileged to be appointed as CEO of such an iconic Australian corporation and, "one of the most resilient and successful postal businesses anywhere in the world". What she really means that she is either completely out of touch with reality or is a weasel wording corporate bullshit artist. What she said can be rephrased as "Australia Post is dying a lingering death and is an abject failure - that pretty much everyone in Australia it totally fed up with all their bullshit and is using other delivery services - if only to get away from the stolen parcels, late deliveries, being carded and bad service." Qualifies as being able to talk out her arse. [  ] Tick Previous Job. Snake Oil Salesman to the Profoundly Neurotic - "Ease your ailments with our potent magic pills". Sells mostly useless over priced shit of...
