    @debbiedo49,
    my system is, check the back for senders details, or anything stamped on the envelope.
    if it’s important open it, if possible or wait til someone can do it for me.
    The junk mail, straight in the bin, I don’t get a lot of mail so can go days without anything.

    sorry I can’t help further

    Hello every body I think we all have this brown envelope syndrome.

    Annoys me credit card companies sent me information.  Wanting me to be introduced to flexible friend.

    All in brown envelopes.  I do have news to share well it is exciting actually.  Really exciting.  I have been selected in my area to be the sole entrant in the Readers Digest draw.

    I know amazing absolutely dumb struck.  You do not understand ladies and gentlemen.  I have been nominated if I return the numbers.

    You are looking at a person going to round two.


    Cannot wait .lol !!!

    Method for sorting mail just answer it.  Simple.  I know I have anxiety and get stressed about what comes through the post.  Got to answer it.

    Not only that.  You need to .  All junk mail there is a preference service to stop it.

    Also had a friend who had piles of letters, bills and correspondence just sitting there.  I understand the anxiety and all that.  Depression.  Got himself into a state about anything and make himself ill.  Having missed so much and not trying to answer or reply to mail. but get a shredder like me.  All the junk mail or non urgent stuff into the shredder.  Totally relaxing shredding stuff.

    Hope that helps any body.

    When you are just having a **** day with pain and the brown envelope comes through the door aarrgghh! This is a new one! Personal Interview for jsa letter from DWP Belfast . Honestly I hate them f**kers! Why Belfast? I live in Glasgow ! It just adds that extra horror factor. It says non compliance can lead to loss of jsa. You must provide proof of job seeking. What is this all about? I sign on fortnightly I get interviews so why the brown envelope from Belfast? Now I’m terrified they are up to no good. Aarrgghh! Ever want to just be put down like a wounded animal? It would be less cruel.

    I joined the mailing preference service. Anyone writing to me personally can be reported for this.

    I don't expect any letters bar the from the bank.
    I noticed that junk mail was starting to arrive in brown envelopes so you open it!!!

    Expected letters are fine. This wasn't because I already had the break down of changes from ESA.
    But this is good, it's an extra £1.75  :) 
    Carribean holiday booked ? :)
    I won't see the increase until next month for the PIP. 
    My first payment received was for last month. 
    No wonder it's a month in arrears, they can get away with this then.
