Business Post falling in a Rising Market, not usually a good sign IMO.

I have had three parcels delevered by City Link over the last month,
each ordered from a different Company.
Looks like BPG are facing strong competition in the parcels business
from an improved CityLink operation imv.

This will only play into the hands of BPG -

Postal workers in London have voted overwhelmingly in favour of strike action in a row over jobs, threatening huge disruption to mail deliveries.

Well I am and a share holder and our company has used Business Post Slough for overnight collections for some years.

In recent months how ever, after booking a collection, on 4 occasions and today again the driver simply did not turn up. Trying to contact and get through to BP Slough after 18.00, to find out why the parcels have not been collected or if the driver is running late, is a complete and utter farce.

All you find is a answer phone that holds you in a cue for 15 minutes and cuts you off, after waiting for 'customer services' to answer the phone.

Today it happened again. We finally managed to get hold of a lady called Angela at Slough who confirmed a booking was made. She said she had to speak to her boss Kelly and finally at 18.40 we were told surprise surprise 'sorry but we cannot get hold of the driver' and 'we will look into it tomorrow'! in other words, sorry your overnight parcels will not be collected today!

This is not the first time this has happened and I wonder how much business is lost by BPG because of other customers having similar experiences and change overnight carriers. We have now started to use another overnight carrier on a trial basis, alongside BPG. This kind of service and attitude maybe explains why the share price has been dropping. Rant over....................

I see the IC is making such a comparision...

Dividend is barley covered!!!

I think City Link is 70% B2B.

Business Post reported a 50 pct rise in pretax profits before exceptionals of 4.8 mln stg for the six months to end-September, after strong growth in its UK Mail operation and good performances in the business-to-business parcels and pallets businesses.

So the share price falls by 50% from 500p to 250p.

Dividend of 17.20p now equates to 6.8% dividend yield plus any up side of share price increase.

Not to sure you can compare City link (RTO) and BPG.
City link parcels are mainly B2C (business to customer) and BPG parcels are largely B2B (business to business)

Because of City Link, RTO was off 22%!!!!!!!.....a good sighter for BPG could be closer to 90p.

It certainly isn't a buy in present uncertain conditions!

City Link has warned today. Is BPG next?

Not surprising at these prices. Dividend yield is useful too.

According to the broker forecasts BPG has not issued a profits warning.

Yet, reading the recent trading statement, this stands out like a sore thumb:

'...the B2C parcels market is becoming increasingly competitive, which is impacting Parcels margin growth in the current year.'

BPG do not state that they will hit expectaions. Why so vague? Is it a coded downgrade?

Any thoughts?
