Tracked usually ok and cheaper. If you have time you can do tracked postage second class iirc.

Gauranteed next day delivery tracked gets pricey but you’d have to use it if you are hard up against a deadline from them.

Check the collection deadlines from your local post office.
Ok, thank you for your advice I appreciate it.

I suggest you use Royal Mail 'Signed For'. You can use 'Signed For' when sending both 1st class and 2nd class. it's relatively inexpensive, £1.70 in addition to the normal postage cost and means you can see if the item has been delivered.

The Post Office will try and sell you 'Special Delivery' which will guarantee next day delivery. It's a good service but it costs - a minimum of £8.35. You don't need this, what you're sending isn't valuable, you just want to know it's been delivered.

Ok thank you, to me the cost is worth the peace of mind to know it has arrived.

Hi all, just an update. This morning I received a settlement offer of just shy of £80, which I immediately paid! I want to thank everyone here for their advice, this has been such a big weight on my mind and I'm so grateful for all the advice here, an invaluable resource, so thank you all, sincerely.

Excellent news, and par for the course with GTR.
