Post by: AndyLin on October 27, 2007, 11:13:11 AM
If anyone is expecting mail from the UK or anywhere else and has not yet recived it, the reason could be that it is sitting in the post office in Fethiye( up the stairs and along the corridor). As they have no postman for the Karayollari to Calis area. Spent 2 hrs this morning going though the bags, found birthdays cards that were posted in Aug and other things. If anyone knows a Mr D Freight who has moved out, he has quite a bit of mail there waiting for him.

We have never had a postman. He delivers everywhere else around here but it isn't a problem as we have a PK box in Fethiye. Unfortunatley there is a waiting list for them now as they are in limited supply.

I went to PTT Fethiye today to try and retrieve our mail. It was a nightmare and I didn't have the time to spend sorting through it so my birthday cards should arrive christmas. They did say they hope to get some sorted tomorrow for delivery. Inshallah.

I went yesterday to see if I had any mail and it was absolutely silly! They have just piled a very very large amount of mail in a tiny room behind a door and told us to rummage! I was getting knocked every time the door opened and I didnt even know where to start with the amount of mail that was there! A man who worked there said that if we couldnt find anything we would just have to wait for our new postman but they have no idea when he will be starting! Oh well good luck too any1 who attempts it!
There is a very large amount for a Mr Knight in Calis if any1 knows who he may be!

I have only seen my postman about twice in 7 years !  He seems to save things up and we get a pile of mail all at once....last months visa bill along with a phone bill from two months ago. We also get other people;s mail, anyone with the same surname, despite the address being completely different.  Best though is when he saves up all the Christmas cards and presents them to me on New Years Eve saying, I thought you might want these ! Hmmmmm.

If they are bills, I have no idea who he is.
If they are cheques and presents, I have a good idea who he might be.   8)

hi every one, I have just come back from Challis today, whilst sitting relaxing in a bar,my son and I actually saw a postman on a scooter, stopped to deliver mail to the bars on the promenade, did not have a lot.
Not knowing the problems with the post, did not the rarity of what I was seeing, could have caught it on camera.
Cheers
Sue

Has anyone in Calis started getting post yet?

I went in Saturday about 1:00. The normal Calis postman was sitting at his desk. He had a look at the few letter and packets under his desk for me, then took me to the sorting room, where there was two packets and about 5 letters, non for me.
He said that was all the mail for Calis at the moment......not even one sack in sight.

I know one parcel was posted first week Sept from UK and another end of Oct, as it was  my little monster's 3rd birthday Monday there may well be others, here or on the way.

Yes, sorry forgot to say this was in the main Fethiye post office, which is why i was wondering if anyone had received some post. As i went in expecting to spend some time having to have a sort thought but was in and out in 5 min's.

Have just been on the Fethiye Times web site, it seem that they have been to the post office to find out what the hold up is with the mail, and the reason no postman for 3 months because of comp reasons. Just wish they would sort out the problem as fed up of going every week to look for mail. Thankfully have now changed may address to the offices.
