SPEED POST TRACKING

SPEED POST TRACKING ONLINE.

The SPPED POST service offered by the Deparment of Posts and Telegraph have come of age. Few years ago people were resorting to private couriers to sent a letter across rapidly. Things have now changed and the postal department has done a lot of catching up. Giving a technical edge to the system, the postal department has a host of facilities to offer for speed post. You can track the status of your speed post sitting in your house.

When you book the speed post in a post office, you are given an acknowlegement slip which contains a bar code, the consignee's address, and an unique Post Article number. To track your speed post you can log on http://services.ptcmysore.gov.in/Speednettracking/ and type the post article no given in the slip and date of booking of the post and click track.(click on the image to get enlarged view)
