Good update from ukm

[freddie ferret] 11/1/2016 17:42

From the point of view of the chart a slightly significant fall today.

I don't think Hermes are much of a threat to Royal mail, I only use Royal mail for my eBay stuff at least I know 99.9per cent of the time Royal mail deliver my goods.

I doubt the Picasso was even locked. I've had two parcels stolen from Hermes this Christmas.

No wonder Hermes recently reduced the compensation level to just £25, and in all cases you have to wait one month "in case it turns up" before they authorise the claim. Obviously customers are not very forgiving when you make them wait a month before refunding / sending a replacement. Last time I waited only three weeks before giving Mr. Angry Customer a refund, as it was the day before Christmas Eve, only for Hermes to magically deliver the parcel and reject my claim. So, customer got expensive item plus all his money back.

Just walked past a Hermes delivery vehicle parked in Reading town centre. A Citroën Picasso full of parcels. If he leaves it there much longer he'll come back to find a brick through the window and all the parcels gone lol!

Many of the Hermes drivers do not have the proper vehicle insurance. Courier insurance for business use of a vehicle is very expensive so many of them just have Social, Domestic and Pleasure. I would never trust them according to folks I know in the industry.

Code readers even, wow!

[nick rubens] 04/1/2016 14:13

I can't remember. The guys turned up in ordinary cars/estate vehicles usually and had code readers.

I must admit I'm the older generation and I was impressed and never knew such services existed. lol

That was my first signal to be wary of RMG as a longer term investment. I would only trade it on vain hope rises if I thought I could spot them.

The only money made here will be the directors IMO. Hope I'm wrong for long term committed shareholders sake.

[exotic] 04/1/2016 14:01

Sounds like Hermes?

[nick rubens] 04/1/2016 13:50

I have a Nephew who sends and buys a lot of parcels via mail and never uses Royal mail. Always finds a competitor cheaper and better.

I've helped him out a few times and they come and collect from my door.

Where is the future here? not in parcels IMO.

Bottom line is:
How many christmas cards sold this year

And did htey go by ROYAL MAIL???

[wipo1] 17/12/2015 12:25

Yes looks good, topped up 444.84p.

[crystball] 17/12/2015 12:05

Obvious buy signal with this director buy combined with low RSI.

[wipo1] 17/12/2015 11:34

Support at 438p, The new Rmg director Peter long has just purchased 50,000 shares.

[crystball] 14/12/2015 16:26

RSI showing oversold now. A reasonable time to buy perhaps. Not aware of any reason why not.

[muffinhead] 14/12/2015 15:43

lol discounting Christmas already!
