We replace the above video & add the transcript here once we get the correct "MBE vs Royal Mail PO Box" YouTube video embed.
A Royal Mail PO Box means collecting your mail yourself. An MBE mailbox means your mail comes to you -- forwarded to any address in the UK or worldwide.
MBE mailboxes are:
- More flexible than a PO Box -- forward to any address, change at any time
- Often more cost-effective, especially with monthly rolling contracts
- Available from 150+ UK locations with a prestigious business address
- Set up online in minutes with clear ID requirements

Our virtual office services include a prestigious business address, mail handling and forwarding, director service address and phone answering services at selected centres.
