The Post Office (SAPO) on Wednesday launched its electronic registered mail service. This service is fully compliant with legislative requirements to provide a secure alternative with complete audit trail, to the lawful service of notices by “physical” registered mail.

It will enable customers to send single or bulk registered mail any time, day or night from any device wherever they are, and get proof of delivery that will stand up in court, SAPO head of commercial Nkosinati Tolom told stakeholders.

At R16.00 per single item mailed, it will be cheaper than its physical counterpart (R25.00) and could be used for the service of notices (traffic fines) in terms of the Administrative Adjudication of Road Traffic Offences (Aarto), the National Credit Act (NCA) and e-toll debt.

Now you can't pretend you never got that traffic fine or those summons.
 
if you opt to not register on this site, can they still send you a summons?
on the flip side, if you do register does it then mean that you have opted to receive summon notifications?

the question is "to register" or "not to register"...
 
If your address is sales@......... or info@...... how willl they prove you read the mail and not somebody else?

Wow, you make that 20-to-1 customer vs service window ratio queue at my local post office sound so enticing.. NOT!

The only reason I use the PO for licence renewals is because the experience at the licencing dept is so much k@kker.

Why not just open a propoganda shop on every corner where citizens can go get their instructions & coupons for the day, the PO as some kind of government-to-citizen shop completely ignores commerce and private citizen concerns. But then, what one does for that government stipend. Viva!

I Registered our Business. Hoping that e-registered mail will solve the problem of receiving vastly outdated traffic offence notices.
Just wondering how or who will connect the dots, and send the service of notices to my Digital Post account?

Contacted DigitalPostSa, in the hope of resolving the Inefficient physical (Paper) registered mail from AARTO. Their reply is as follows:

"The sender or company (in this case AARTO) has to register a bulk profile with SA Post Office, thereafter they will be able to send eRegistered Mail to their customers. All they need is a valid email address of the recipient, the recipient (customers) will be notified via email to register on www.digitalpostsa.co.za and view the eRegistered Mail sent their Digital Box. Unfortunately the recipient can’t activate the service, the action needs to come from the sender (company)."

So just don't click the link and you can legally say you never saw the mail.
