I too would like to see a Royal Mail Special Delivery extention. Anybody know of one? I need to offer this to my customers, northing too fancy, just the ability for my customers to choose Special Next Day Delivery with a one off cost.
dragon! I think I found a work around. You can edit the Flat Fee php files. Replace the words "Flat Fee" with "Royal Mail Special Next Day Delivery" or whatever you want, set the rate in the flat rate shipping method and you are done.
The files I adjusted are the "flat.php files in all the shipping folders under admin. You need to FTP in to do this.
I'm not using the flat rate method so I wont be missing it. I'm just using Free Shipping and Special Delivery.
Hope this helps.
P.S I'm sure I'm going to hear now from users who are going to tell me why I shoudnt have done that

Have you tried the Royal mail with handling extension? This has the special delivery services. It just replaces the standard module.

Yep, the whole Tax-class has changed in the 1.5.1.3 SVN.

I have now added a work around for special delivery as a postage option for UK Stores files attached if you want special delivery and cant wait for the next release.
All i have done is removed the Airmail shipping option and added Special Delivery in its place
all prices are updated to match today's rates, it has been tested and confirmed working in 1.5.1
Best Regards
