    Well we had a delivery today from the new contractor, I still can't see how they could put in a contract price so low and win the contract and then HAVE 2 in a van, one drives, other rushes out to deliver. So not are they undercutting but also so how can run 2 people doing a round.
    A rumour going around that they knew one of their country men in Aus post to get in, but an unsubstanciated rumour.

    Wow - I didn't know that! I was going to disagree that they were owned by AP but thankfully googled it first.

    StarTrack is solely owned by Australia Post ( http://www.startrack.com.au/about-us/overview/ )
    They used to be jointly owned by Australia Post and Qantas

    Maybe it's time for a reverse takeover

    I think Australian Air Express is in the mix too.

    Used to be a partnership between Qantas and Aust Post. Qantas owns AAE. TNT definitely wouldn't be involved as they are direct competitor to AAE, even though a lot of their air freight goes on Qantas/AAE planes.

    Certainly sounds like it over your way. I don't know why they have the parcel lockers locked up where you are, sort of defeats the purpose of them. All the ones I use and have seen around here are all outside in a carpark.
    If you need to contact me please email homestarrunnerau@gmail.com - thanks - Gav.
