Paying for Daily AP delivery

[2106greencat]

Just had a thought that none of the AP's bright 'pay for delivery' idea makes a lot of sense to me.

Personally, mail delivery three times a week, which is 3 days out of 5 anyway wouldn't bother me at all, but tell me where is the sense in this scenario -

I don't care, I'll get my mail any time they deicde to pop it in may mailbox - but my neighbour decides she wants it every day.

How in hell is that going to help 'cut down' work for the posty man - so he will have her few letters on board every day and zip by me except on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday when I am allowed to receive mine.

Have I missed something ?

It wouldn't be the first time LOL

Most likely only businesses will pay the extra to retain the 5 day a week delivery of ordinary mail sent to them.

It is not something dreamed up by Aust Post other countries have already started doing this or propose to - NZ and Canada to name some - due to the rapidly declining number of letters being posted.
