You might as well be shopping in Canada for all its worth as it will not get through this month unless you are using a different courier as RM is out of service for the rest of December at least.

Current status from item sent yesterday using Falcon 1 (inside 24hrs) we are breaking through the picket fence & sound barrier with this one.

Doesn't seem to affect anything leaving the UK. For once I might be having a better delivery time than uk hahaha

Just checked yesterday's Falcon 1 orders and they are all at the customer's local depot at time of writing this 07.31 am on Saturday which means they will be getting sorted into there delivery vans today!!

Who needs Saturday specials when the Falcon is in town!!

Online they only state some dates. 9, 11, 14 and 15 December. Has this changed?

latest from RM website : CWU members are taking national strike action on 9, 11, 14, 15, 23 and 24 December 2022.

It's the knock-on effects as things are and will either go missing or take weeks to arrive in some instances not all but some, so it will become too much of a ball ache it already is a massive ball ache now and to continue to travel into a force 9 storm is just stupid.

That's why we have options for this very event we are happy with what we see going forward with Falcon deliveries it's the only way to keep GT's ship on course!

I would like to just say I have used the Falcon service previously and it was flawless. Greentech offers good quality with a strike busting alternative. If you want to know your xmas/New Years goodies will get to you this is the way to do it.
I personally would love to see more vendors looking for alternatives such as this. Thanks for the risks all you vendors are taking but also thank you for putting up with the stress you must be getting from us Biggies that are a tad impatient!!!
As for RM if any of you are reading this, like the rail networks, you lost my support when you added Christmas Eve etc to your strike days. To ruin families xmas is a low blow and no I don’t care about how hard up you are…sorry. Anyways thanks again for the falcon Greentech and thank u all vendors. Shout outs to:
Eddies Edibles - gold standard in customer service and great edibles
Pistach - come on if you haven’t tried him yet, wtf are u waiting for!
DrTerpy - great carts,great value and taste, exceptional reliable Special NDD before 1.

Yes I think the unions are playing games as they have offered a 9% increase, but the unions want it in line with inflation which means 11%, but next year inflation will be coming back down so for the sake of having our posties back they are holding out for 11% seems a bit wrong in my eyes especially as inflation will drop back down, what makes it worse is seeing some of these our industry's that were given furlough unlike the postie who marched through are now also striking even though they were sat on there back sides getting there 80% pay for months at a time.

More manipulation by the few on the masses i think.

Unfortunately i am not in the UK so not sure it would work. Fedex is already struggling and they are pros.

Does that work for Ireland GT?

Just checked Slimjim81 and yes it does, just allow a few more days and also bear in mind customs so it is not ever going to be 100%.

Just opened up a Private courier shipping option European fully tracked which is even cheaper than RM Europe tracked!

Never 100% with Irish customs thanks GT

Yes they are on point.

Fair play with the options you give 👍

Thanks JC !

Deserved - you have stayed the course and battled through. I am partial to an opinionated person also ! Even tho I don’t always agree I like your continued input. Going above and beyond with delivery that benefits both you and the customer. So yeah not bad !

Yes it's been a serious battle JC but what has kept me positive is the great customers on here.

I admit at times I have not acted in algo safe way and perhaps upset some folk along the way but I needed to impact back in 21 and was learning about the algo.

I have had to be provocative but that was to try to catch the Purple bandit that plagues my existence on here and it has worked even though it has been quite a blunt approach at times it has been effective in helping to expose this vermin.

At times its been overly stressful but to make a diamond you need extreme pressure.

It"s great thar some of the high profile biggaz are highlighting the stress towards vendors due to RM malfunctions, but it is our jobs tp deal with customer order enquires and if that becomes top stressful then the vendor is no good not the cusomer it,s part of our job. What should not be part of our job is been attacked by a rival repetably. And that is not been talked about in much scope by the high profile biggaz which leads me to think that some off them.are on the take. As it is common knowledge who the main culprit is it's not rocket science. So if biggaz were geniuely concerend about vendors welfare u would think that this would be something worth a serious mention.

Looking forward to 23 to finally slay the beast of Biggy aka the Purple Bandit lol

❤️❤️❤️ For everything you do GT

Thanks Ninja x

I also must admit I'm really impressed with the way you bounced back from the horrible situation that happened to you a while back. Shows great dedication! Looking forward to tasting your strawberries!

Glad u are back in the store Bigorre it's been a while!

Well, with that kind of service it's not surprising! The strawberry cough is really tasty, lovely after taste... Looking forward to trying something new!

Who is this you speak of mate?

I hear rumblings of vendor drama now and then but never a name or anything shared?

I’m out the loop.

But, can vouch for the falcon as used previously and was rapid!!🤜
