Large Letter Announcement
We have relaxed the presentational requirements for machineable Large Letters to provide you with greater flexibility and to enable more of your mail to benefit from the lower prices of our machineable services.
Further to the change we announced in January 2016 allowing Polymer outer envelopes to overhang by up to 30mm when posted as Machinable Large Letters, we are pleased to inform you that due to additional upgrades to our Large Letter automation machines, and some recent product specification reviews: In connection with these changes please note:
Machinable Large Letters can be sent using the Unwrapped specification. This will mean that you will be able to send Machinable Large Letters using the Unwrapped specification and benefit from the lower prices of Mailmark or OCR.
Removal of 'Tag Code Clear Zone'. We will no longer apply the white 'route tag' labels giving you greater flexibility when designing your mail piece.
We are also pleased to announce that the minimum size of a Machinable large letter has been reduced and will be 95mm X 145mm X 0.5mm.
From consultation with our customers, we understand that these changes are likely to provide you with much greater flexibility and enable more mail to benefit from the lower prices of Machinable services 3 October 2016.
