Wonderful news. I wonder how much commission per parcel they pay the Post Office? This collection system is a way to cut them out.

Does this also include the reduction on Tracked24/Tracked48?
This collection has been a godsend and beats standing at the counter whilst the Post Office staff repeat the customs information for International items. Then a whole load of receipts for proof of postage nice to have just 1 email per 10 items.
Postie advises that whilst you can only book 10 at a time you can hand over as many as 50 - though no tracking for collection for anything that isn't booked so if it later goes missing proof of sending won't be possible.

Can imagine this will be ongoing. Everyone will be straight down the post office again if they start charging.

Is this cheaper than going to the post office branch?

Yes for parcels as they charge less for 2nd and 1st class purchased online. Although you could also purchase online and drop off as well.
