Early Post: BPG soothes customers

‘Early Post has nothing to do with abusing our monopoly but everything with making our services more efficient’, says Frans Rombouts, CEO of Belgian postal company Belgian Post Group (BPG). Early Post guarantees a post delivery before 9 a.m. from 1 November onwards but the service costs 60 euros a month.

Corporate customers who do not wish to pay for the new service have been told that their mail will be delivered from 9 a.m. onwards, which means that it may be later than under the previous standard service. Mr Rombouts says that the letter sent to customers just contained an unfortunate choice of words. He discussed the matter with Kris Peeters, managing director of Unizo, last night. Unizo is the association of self-employed entrepreneurs.
