Ah.... arcelfarce...


You can't use stamps for Parcelforce. That may well be a recent
development but you now just pay and get a receipt. A bar code goes on
the parcel by which it is tracked and accounted for and shows it has
been paid for - no postage label, no stamps. Parcelforce Worldwide are
about to introduce a similar system.
