Due to heavy snowfall in our local area, we are currently seeing delays to business collections and deliveries. We are not expecting to receive a business collection today, due to the conditions, so have temporarily removed all tracked services as we cannot guarantee dispatch times for these. All other mail will be processed as normal for collection as soon as Royal Mail are able to collect from us.

PC2Paper will be increasing our postage prices in line with the latest Royal Mail price increases by close of business on Friday the 31st of March. This is to take into account the Royal Mail prices increases on the following working day the 3rd of April. All other prices will remain the same.

Royal Mail have advised that not all mail was processed to schedule at its Plymouth and South Midlands Mail Processing Centres yesterday. Mail in the following areas is likely to be delayed:

• Plymouth Mail Centre: Some mail posted yesterday in other parts of the UK for delivery today in the PL postcode area.
• South Midlands Mail Centre: Some mail posted yesterday in the CV, LE, MK and NN postcode areas for delivery today in other parts of the UK.

We have reinstated all International Tracked services, however, these service are still subject to delays due to the recent Royal Mail cyber incident. Royal Mail have advised that customers are likely to see less tracking than usual and that delivery will take longer than usual. We advise customers to allow extra time for delivery when using this service.

Royal Mail have advised that there are currently delays to mail posted in Aberdeen and Manchester. Customers should expect delays in the following areas:

• Aberdeen Mail Centre: Some mail posted in other parts of the UK, due for delivery in the AB and ZE postcode areas.
• Manchester Mail Centre: Some mail posted in the BL, M, OL and SK postcode areas, due for delivery across the rest of the UK.

We do not have template functionality, however PC2Paper allows you to copy letters you have previously sent or saved in your account. This functionality can also be used like a template, enabling you to save a letter you may have already set up with your letterhead, layout and other features common in all of your letters. Each time you send a new letter you just copy this saved letter to use as a template.

1. Create a letter

Create a letter the way you usually would except this time you are only going to place a letterhead and possibly a sender address and salutation into your letter (basically anything that is a common feature in all of your letters). In the name field give your letter a name, in this case we have named it "Standard Letter Template 1". When you are done Save your letter.

2. Use your saved letter as a template for a new letter

Click on the "My Letters" menu option at the top of the screen and then on "Saved" letters to the left of your screen. You should now see the letter you previously saved. If you click on "copy" next to this letter you can use it as the basis of a new letter.

Planned strike action by Royal Mail workers will no longer go ahead this week.
