Default Long term mail forwarding company in UK

Royal Mail only offers 2 years of mail forwarding. Can anyone reccommend a long term mail forwarding company in UK?
Thanks.

Is the 2 years the max time you can sign up for in one go? Or after that cant you just renew it from Oz? I renewed ours time and time again but only took 6 months at a time as I knew we were staying. They dont lose money with what they charge you so I cant see them turning down the opportunity to make a profit.

Maybe best to get mail forwarded to a member of family in the UK?

You can't do it for more than 2 years. Royal Mail tell you that 2 years is enough time to find somewhere permanent to live.

pricey indeed and I bet the £145 plus vat doesnt actually cover postage but simply providing address for 12 mths. youch. will look into his further. There must be more companies like this too

I looked into it a few years ago and I'm sure there was someone around Chelmsford doing it for much less but I can't find them now.. Maybe you'll have better luck...
