This is continuing today, 12 January, with no time notified for resumption of service. Outgoing international RM letters and parcels are at a standstill. Government security services are involved and so it is unlikely to be simply a technical fault. Incoming mail is still moving with possible delay. See the link to Royal Mail in the pinned thread above.

Still not looking good, so for the moment, will write domestic replies first....

Bah humbug, still no news on progress rectifying the situation (ransomware cyber attack), and this is perhaps not good news. Mail is still coming into the UK without much delay, but for the moment, it will be a while for outgoing to make it out (there must be quite a backlog).

Export letters are now moving and can be posted again from 1900hrs (why specifically then is not explained). New parcels should not be posted yet.

Don't think there are that many collections at 7pm! They've probably got quite the backlog to get through, so I will perhaps delay any international replies until the weekend.

Sending letters & postcards (things that do not need a customs declaration form) internationally from the UK seems to be back to normal. Parcels are still delayed...
