nyway when will East End boxes get fixed?
Many people need to find ways, methods etc. to save money. As the minimum way will not go anywhere soon.the system is design to keep you paying for things you can avoid.
Well I hear of them say box used to be $35 and $55 up till Dec 2022, but guess what as of Jan 2023, the same box is now costing upwards of $166 to $180 a year. Talk less about postage. Small box for postage used to $3.95 flat rate, how much is it now? Upwards of $16.00.
Guess what, BVI is a copy cat so no wonder postage rate going up in BVI too. What a thing to tell the King. Any one are you see those boxes at East End and Long Look close to the fire station next to community center?? What a shame!!!
