Up until recently, I used to be given a "lodgement receipt" to fill out, but the PO never gives me any paperwork anymore. Should I be asking for it? Would a stamped lodgement receipt satisfy a Paypal claim?
Definitely ask for it, and if they don't give you any, you can print one from a PDF available online. You don't necessarily have to ask for a whole bunch and fill them out at home, but I always have a few on hand as it saves a bit of time at the PO.
The register receipt is nowhere near as good as having the stamped lodgement form showing the address, and there's no reason you shouldn't have that form if you've paid for reg post, so I would be insisting on it, or getting the printed ones stamped.
