| Good morning all
This post is for sellers using Royal Mail in the UK. I am looking for any sellers
that have had a £5 fee applied by Royal Mail with an explanation of counterfeit
stamps being used.
If this is anyone then please do get in touch with me as I may have an opportunity
to get your money back and help solve this issue !
Cheers

| Are they using older stamps that are now not recognised ?
They should have exchanged them for current stamps which Royal Mail will only
recognise now, you had to send them to Royal Mail with a card/paper and not take
them to a post office.
I did this with those that I hadn’t used yet.
Not sure if this option is still open.

| The post office selling counterfeit stamps.
I know they need to make a profit but this is pushing it.

If the stamps were bought at the post office, they might have been misprints
and would show as not rel/counterfeit.
