If for any reason you stop your service or stop paying for your service but have post remaining at the office, we must pay to have it securely destroyed at a cost of £30, therefore we hold a security deposit for this amount on your account whilst it remains active.

Can I use the address if I'm not a Ltd Company?
Yes you can, we also accept individuals, sole traders, charities, religions and political parties.
