| Here is a sample of some of our most Frequently Asked
Questions. Please read through this material before you send us an email asking for further
information. |
|
|
 |
 |
Is emailTelegram or World Post Services a Post
Office? |
| |
 |
No. We are a private limited
company, based in the United Kingdom. Our text processing service works
similar to a Post Office because we can forward your electronic text to any
normal legal address in the world via the regular Post Office's
distribution. |
|
|
|
 |
|
Does World Post Services deliver the mail? |
|
|
No. We process your letter and then
deliver it to the British Post Office. We rely on the British "Royal
Mail" to deliver your mail within the UK and world-wide. They are delivery specialists with a
proven global distribution network that handles over 20 billion items every
year. |
|
|
|
 |
|
Can I use this service right now from any computer
anywhere? |
|
|
Yes. All you need is your credit card and access to this web
site. An Internet account is not required. You could even use us from a
hotel. However, in order to conduct a secure transaction for credit card
payment, your browser must, as normal, be configured to accept "cookies".
|
|
|
|
 |
|
Does World Post Services protect my
credit card details? |
|
|
Yes. In fact we don't even pretend
to run a credit card company. All our credit card transactions are
conducted on-line by "World Pay" which is a leading electronic
credit card expert. We keep our prices down and they keep our security up. |
|
|
|
 |
|
Is World Post Services confidential? |
|
|
Yes. We are registered with the
Data Protection Act of the United Kingdom (Registration Number PZ5465603). Our staff are trained to keep
your letters private. We also protect your names and addresses from
mailing lists. We will not give your details for junk mail or electronic
spamming. |
|
|
|
 |
|
Does World Post Services censor text? |
|
|
Possibly.
Although we do not and cannot review all the messages processed by us, we
will not knowingly send text of an
unlawful or sexually inappropriate nature. We reserve the right to cancel your order and refund your
credit card. Liability will be for only the price of the requested
transaction. As with all automated processes, we can never guarantee that
the content of any letter will be monitored by a data processor and
therefore can never be responsible for the content of the letters. The
British Malicious Communications Act will protect certain recipients from inappropriate
messages. |
|
|
|
 |
|
Can World Post Services improve
mail delivery time to all countries? |
|
|
No.
World Post Services admits that it can
only improve mail delivery locally for a country with a good and efficient
local service distributor that connects with our local service collector,
the Royal Mail. We therefore allow you to make the choice yourself whether
or not there will be any benefit to you. However, we do trust that the British
Royal Mail is one of the best mail processing companies in the world and
that in most cases there will be a benefit to our customers, especially if
being delivered within the United Kingdom. (This includes: England,
Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland). Considerable time savings will
also be noticed to the USA and Canada from most global locations due to
the cooperative relationships of these Post Offices. |
|
|
|
 |
|
Will World Post Services guarantee
delivery to the address that I specify? |
|
|
No. We depend on you to provide
us with the correct address. Although the delivery company will attempt to
deliver your letter, its fate is just as uncertain as it would be if you
had mailed it yourself. We provide a service and an opportunity, but it is
up to you to decide if there will be any benefit. You must provide us with
a correct address or else, as ever, your letter will not be delivered
properly. We only guarantee delivery of your letter to the Post Office. |
|
|
|
 |
|
Can I telephone World Post Services? |
|
|
No. By providing an automated electronic service we are able
to offer you the lowest possible prices. This is an ever growing new
reality of the 24 hour world wide web. However, our staff are dedicated
to processing your mail and responding to your emails. |
