Does anyone know if your sending a larger sized envelope (A5 or A4 size) how many normal first class stamps you have to put on to cover the postage? (Or even if this is an acceptable method)
on Monday we got a A4 size envelope from one of our suppliers. There were just 2 A4 sheet of printed paper inside. The postman would not leave the envelope just left a note to collect from sorting office. My office manager had to make a special trip and guess what. The sender had only stuck one first class stamp on the envelope so we had to pay the difference.
Up to and including A5 size with a maximum thickness of 5mm and weight of 100g it is a letter which costs 41p (a first class stamp).
Beyond those limits up to and including A4 size with a maximum thickness of 25mm and weight of 750g it is a large letter which will cost:
< 100g £0.66 (needing two first class stamps)
< 250g £0.96 (needing three first class stamps)
< 500g £1.32 (needing four first class stamps)
< 750g £1.87 (needing five first class stamps)
Beyond that and its a packet and it gets complicated!
