Missing mail

Hi, has anyone else had a problem with post not arriving? In the last two weeks three items of mail have not arrived, including one that was supposed to be tracked and signed for. It had only been tracked until it was in Spain and then....nothing!

For the fourth year in a row, birthday cards that were posted from the UK a week before the event have
not arrived a week after the event (usually never). I try not to be cynical but...!

Please note that the postman is only an agent of the post office - is not an employee. In Crevillent we foreigners had had enough of xmas cards and the like going missing and made a formal complaint to Madrid. There are thieves in the postal service unfortunately and it sounds like you have one.
First complain to the post office and then make a complaint to Madrid. It works!

We have found that it's taking an average of twelve days for our post to arrive and that includes it sent by first class post!

It seems to be a problem with post sent from Spain as well. I posted my dad's Christmas card to South Africa in the last week of November. It arrived on January 12th - 44 days!!

I received an ebay item from China last week which was posted in November....
But I also received a heavy ebay item from Japan within 10 days!
Our postman is great and even delivered a letter to us that just said Martin, Pueblo Lucero, Spain on the envelope.

We have never had a problem with the postal system... our mail to the UK usually takes 2 or 3 days, the mail from the UK here usually takes 4 days or 5... regular as clockwork...
We post our cards at the post office and we pick up our mail at the post office in Rojales... I don´t know if that makes a difference.
