I recently had problems with my government ID login that could only be resolved by sending a physical letter.

This is horrific.

this makes no sense. you going to deliver a parcel but you can't be bothered to drop some letters at the same time?

What about birthday, Christmas and Mother’s Day cards?

Well that's one way to counter spam mail.

Ahh yes of course, because you can't legally backdoor the mail?

Another company (Dao) will deliver mail instead.

This is really sad ... I still send letters, sometimes it's nice to get a post card or letter in the mail. 😔

Announcing the decision earlier this year to stop delivering letters, PostNord, formed in 2009 in a merger of the Swedish and Danish postal services, said it would cut 1,500 jobs in Denmark and remove 1,500 red postboxes amid the “increasing digitalisation” of Danish society.

I thought this was decided when the merger happened in 2009. This has been known in Sweden since right after the merger happened and it completely fucked our old postal service.

This doesn't sound good, what tf do ya'll do with your Christmas cards

.. you had one job ..

Well I should hope so! Who’s hanging onto letters more than 400 years past their postmark date?

Why is this in the Canada sub tho?

the danish part of postnord is the reason the entire cooperation is losing money. let's hope this helps.

As someone who sends birthday cards, this would be quite annoying

A postal service that doesn't post things as a service? What is the world coming in?

All I get through post is junk mail.

Coming soon to a post office near you
