French QSL mystery resolved

Earlier this year, a consignment of QSL parcels destined for overseas Bureau's - including one for France - were dispatched by the South African Radio League. Shortly after that South African Radio Amateurs started receiving cards destined for France back in the mail.

The mystery has now been resolved and the Post office taken to task.

After dispatch, the Post Office went on strike and during this strike period it appeared that one of the QSL parcels was "broken open" by one or more strikers, possibly looking for valuables. Now the French Bureau took the trouble to return the empty parcel to us which proved that the SARL QSL Bureau's suspicion was correct.

We sincerely apologize for the negligence displayed by the Postal authorities. We are awaiting a response from the Post Office.

The QSL bureau has already made changes in the packaging material which will make it more difficult for parcels to be opened without some major effort. The QSL bureau has unfortunately no control over employees of the Post Office breaking parcels to check for valuables - which appears to be a common complaint!
