Depends on what area you live in .I worked for the post office and what we tended to do was deliever the mail but asked for the charge to be paid by the recipient if not at home a card is left asking them to come to a sorting office to pick it up and charges have to be paid before you can take the letter or parcel. |

Yes, with a nice big surcharge for whoever you sent it too. (£1 plus cost of stamp I think for a letter.) |

Yes, but the person you sent it to will have to pay the missing postage. If they're not at home, a card will be left by the postman telling them to collect the item from their nearest delivery office, and pay the excess. There's a small fine (surcharge) as well, like £1. |

it will get there but the recipient will have to pay the postage cost and about £1 fee on top. The letter will not be handed over until this is paid. |

The recipitent will receive a card telling them that an item of mail can not be delivered as the incorrect postage was paid.
They then have to stick the appropriate value of stamps on the card and post it back to royal mail before the letter will be delivered.
We get loads of these where I work. Sometimes poeple make a genuine mistake other times people are trying to be clever.
Our Policy is that we do not pay to have the mail delivered.
If a return address is on the envelope they may try and return it to you are it will likely be held for a period of time and then destroyed. |

NO. It will be returned for "Insufficient Postage".
If you actually put a stamp on, it may have gone through, even if the stamps were not enough... kind of hit & miss.
One way to get around paying for postage (pretty lame and not always reliable) is to put the RETURN address as the address as the place that you want to send the letter. For the mail-to address, put your own address (give it a try if you want to get away with committing a felony!).
The Post Office actually destroys a lot of mail because both the addressee and sender are illegible (according to my aunt, who works there)... something like a 9/11 liability - but they have a certain holding period requirement. If you need to track down the letter, try contacting the Postmaster General at http://www.usps.gov and your local post office. |
