I'm in scotland and have had no problems in the past having post sent to me to be collected at a post office of choice.
Not used it in a couple of years but have previously done that at Durness Scotland, Thurso Scotland, Stromness on Orney.
Just had one this week sent up to Thurso six days ago and have just gone to collect only for the branch manager to tell she returned it as I did not have permission.
Apparently the rules have changed.

you have to Apply in person at the Post Office® branch you’d like your post sent to
not much bloody use if you are touring and are relying on it being sent ahead.
I'm so p???ed off that I wish to express every complaint word under the sun about the manager at thurso post office.
I need to vent.
Thanks for listening and beware of my experience.
cheers
