Post Office Adds New Services

Isle of Man Post Office has announced a series of new services and ‘strategic’ enhancements to its postal offering.

The changes, which take effect from March 9, follow the first phase of product and service changes introduced in January.

Two new services for sending items within the island will be introduced: The Local Tracked and Local Tracked Plus.

New Services

Both services offer tracking capabilities along with different levels of compensation, all at a price point cheaper than the current standard parcel service.

The new services replace existing local postage options, which include Special Delivery, standard parcels, Tracked and Signed For.

Special Delivery services for items destined to UK addresses will continue to be available from post office counters and via IOMPO’S Online Postage platform, with customers also benefitting from price reductions.

Weight Bands

Parcel weight bands have also have been simplified, making it easier for customers to find the service they need. 

It will continue to offer its lowest ever rate for tracked parcels to the UK and Channel Islands, from £3.75 via Online Postage.

Customers will now be able to send up to 20kg using this service.

Standard parcels service to the UK will now only be available from Post Office counters. 

Committed

Stu Peters MHK, Chairman of Isle of Man Post Office said: “Our customers are at the heart of everything we do. With these changes, we’re offering cheaper prices, refined service options, and tracking as standard.

“We are committed to ensuring our tariffs and products are affordable, reliable and accessible for our Island community and hope these changes will be welcomed by our customers.”
