waiting on a package from an online order, posted weds and not shown up yet. Usual mail is arriving OK,but only been getting letters not packages.

Anyone else had delays, possibly due to the weather?

All mine have come through OK to SW London from Wiggle and Merlin - but chose to avoid the worst days (Mon/Tues) here.

From my experience I believe Wiggle use Royal Mail (unsigned) and CityLink (signed) depending on value. My deliveries this week were Royal Mail - one small and one large package

Yep - had some delays due to the weather.

Postman didn't even make it yesterday because of the weather.

Weve had very sporadic collections from PF and CL all week. So if anyone is experiencing any delays from any kit from Rutland give us a call and we can keep you upto date.

I was most surprised / pleased to see my Wiggle delivery the next day this week - very impressive, but it was small and Royal Mail. I noticed JE James are saying their deliveries have been affectd because of the weather - not that I've ever used them...

You will find Royal mail deliveries have more chance of delivering than your standard courier.They have huge rear wheel drive sprinter vans and the like,which are rubbish in the snow.
I've suprised a few people this week by getting to houses of people who have rang in work claiming they can't get out ! Just shows you "when there's a will .....

Yes! UKBikestore has an order for disc brake pads, placed on Monday, I think, but still no sign. They're usually very reliable.

I know the delivery office I work from (Bingley) has a backlog of packets. The foot postmen have been out delivering but the vans that deliver the larger items have struggled on the untreated roads.
My advice would be to be patient, and if you are really desperate try calling in to see if they will hand it over there and then.
