Does anyone know who the courier company is that will be delivering
the renewed Freedom Passes in and around London?

Or indeed what the delivery arrangements are or will be?

I have a feeling that it might be DPD - with whom I have a dispute
right now about their getting a 'neighbour' to sign for a package
addressed to me - but whom I cannot now locate. I am hoping that it is
not my new Freedom Pass.


Mine came 2nd class Royal Mail, no signature required, just on the floor
when I came in, envelope marked Do not forward


That's how I know other peoples' passes have arrived (i.e. by regular
mail). I don't think couriers are being used at all.

An aside - the Post Office has decided (unilaterally it sounds like) to
withdraw from the process of issuing and re-issuing Freedom Passes as of
the end of June 2015, which seems like an odd thing to do (given they're
a government owned enterprise that in my mind is kinda supposed to serve
as a front desk for some public services).
