Don’t know which other services will be affect but just spotted a bbc story that the cost of stamps will be going up in april.
Those of you who ship using stamps may want to stock up.

Thanks for the head’s up Sasha. It will be £2.10 for a 1st large letter - that cost has nearly doubled in four years! Might have to switch to 2nd class!
Here’s the full list if it’s useful to anyone: https://www.royalmail.com/sites/royalmail.com/files/2024-03/our-prices-april-2024-v1-ta.pdf

Honestly at this rate the postage will cost more than my cards! I often get orders of two or more which can take the weight up over standard letter to large letter, three or more it goes up to large letter 250g which obviously pushes up the price again, I’m pondering if it goes up next time it’ll probably be cheaper to send it through one of the other couriers as a small parcel!
Thank you for notifying us. Ridiculous isn’t it?
I have my family overseas and a card or letter costs soon £2.50 to send!
I am thinking of doing “cards” via emails
