City Link

If anyone has any updates or additions to the City Link entries, please post on this thread instead of using the contact page or adding another entry to the database as any messages posted here will be acted on quickly.

I have just tidied up the entries for City Link. As it has acquired Target Express, I expect that some depots will close, and hence numbers may change. For example, Edinburgh is now served by the Livingston depot and calling the Telford (01952) number diverts to the Shrewsbury depot.

You can find the address of your local depot from the City Link contact page.

I wonder if it is actually necessary to contact the depot your parcel is at as it will all be automated. For this reason there are probably suitable numbers even if the exact one which relates to you isn't there. For example, I understand that Milton Keynes will deal with many areas on 01908 280280 or straight into an operator on 01908 280260 /1 /7 /8.

Many thanks. I've added this 0870 number to the existing entry.

Please add a City-link Chelmsford number 01245 280200

There are 2 Chelmsford branches, the one currently on the site was previously Target Express and identified as such.

I was told that they still have separate distribution channels and often redirect enquiries as they cant access each others database.

I was given a wrong contact number by another City-link branch for Chelmsford 01268726724 - but was for a different company altogether.

Thanks. City Link's depot locations are listed on its website here.

This one is Wimbledon and is already listed in our database as such. I've added, "Merton" in brackets after its location as looking on the map it is in Merton, so locals might know it as such.

Thanks. Yes it is in the Merton Industrial Estate. The problem I had is that it covers the Croydon area and I did not associate that with Wimbledon when looking on your site and I am a seasoned saynoto0870.com user. It would be very helpful if you could add a note that it covers Croydon.

Search the database for

city link

There is a link near the top for finding your local branch, on which you can enter your post code and it will tell you the address of the office that serves you. Maybe we could be make clearer this procedure.

It would be impractical to put the areas that depots serve as, for example, part of Croydon may be served by one depot and part by another. We have no way of knowing whether this is the case and of course City Link could redefine the boundaries as it sees fit.

Thus, the best way is to refer to the post code checker to find one's local branch.
