killamch89 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Which would you rather receive - Email or Letter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 Email is so common that it doesn't have the same thrill it used to. Sure I enjoy getting an email if it's from someone I care about, or something I'm passionate about. But to get a physical letter would be a new-old novelty. So I would like to receive a letter.

killamch89 Posted June 26, 2021 Author Share Posted June 26, 2021 I'd rather the email just because of convenience. In addition to that, the email won't get lost in the mail unlike a letter so you may not receive the letter at all either. My grandma used to send letters for me all the time and most of the times, I never got them because the postal service was so lousy in my country.

The Blackangel Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 There's no guarantee you'll get the email though either. Digital means are not perfect means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted June 27, 2021 Share Posted June 27, 2021 89.8% emailing mostly. Even my ank statements and phone deals to payment details are all done by emails nowadays and get it far more faster and read it in no time before a letter gets to your letterbox. Just used to getting emails and dealing with that then letters, however I still get letters coming in, some bills and also appointments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're almost instant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they get sent to the wrong household and you ended up not getting it at all, then you get your phone call stating that you missed your appointment and you have to buy a $50 bill for not turning up ;( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
