Step 1

four services available from Royal Mail. These are Business Reply
Standard Business Reply PLUS Freepost Standard and Freepost PLUS

you) See styles

Step 2
If you have not already got one, you'll need a Royal Mail licence.
This is easily available and opens an account with Royal Mail to
pay for the licence and postage that you will use. You will have
to pay a deposit for the postage, but you only charged for postage
on each envelope that is posted back to you, so there is no risk
or waste. If you already have a Royal Mail Business Reply or Freepost
licence, skip to stage 3. Apply
