From my understanding from todays announcements is this actually going to stop the excessive postage fees & refusals to deliver to NI?

I really hope so.

    Yeah I know. I can't see why it was not sorted from day one.

    Totally rediculous

    Happy to be corrected, but my perception was that RM is constricted to UK-wide standard pricing due to Universal Service Obligation,
    whereas other courier services can charge whatever those services deem appropriate to obtain its expected return (sic) on a service, or even not offer a service.

    Maybe a poor comparison:
    fares for hackney carriages are typically set/regulated by local licensing authority / council,
    whereas fares for private hire vehicles are set by the licensed private hire operator itself.
