Royal Mail guides charities through pricing in proportion changes
Howard Lake | 6 December 2005 | News
The Royal Mail today launches the first phase of its campaign to help businesses prepare for the introduction of its new pricing system, Pricing in Proportion (PiP) on 21 August 2006.
Information packs providing price and sizing information as well as advice on how charities can manage the impact of PiP have been sent to 12,000 charity customers.
PiP takes into account the size and shape as well as the weight of mail. The Royal Mail claim that it will mean that prices will more closely reflect the cost of collecting, sorting and delivering mail and that up to half of the mail affected will become cheaper to send.
