The Post Office started to roll out their new NCR Post & Go machines on 28th February 2014. The first Office to operate these was Harpenden, Hertfordshire. As well as vending fixed tariff rates the machines also produced open value labels. These can be for pretty well any tariff rate and in that context are akin to Horizon labels and include a Service Type code, Accounting code, Payment Amount and Weight. The machines print to second or first class labels depending upon the tariff being purchased. Originally, the second class NVI (cyan) was found with the year code MAI2 and the first class NVI (olive brown) with the year code MAI3. Subsequently, further printing were introduced with later year codes :-
Machin Label Colour | Year Codes | |
Cyan (second class NVI) | MAI2

Olive brown (first class NVI) | MAIL,

A Philatelic Carrier Card / Collectors Pack containing Open Value Post & Go labels was issued on 7th July 2014. Five Open Values were in the pack namely : Second Class (2L), Second Class Large (2LG), First Class (1L), First Class Large (1LG) and Airmail (A). The first class labels (olive brown) have no year code and the second class (cyan) are MAI2. These labels mimic output from NCR machines but have in fact been produced as 'Specials' with office code 'B7GB14' and machine code 'C001' and transaction number 015 for all five labels - the print may not be produced by thermal printer. The pack is numbered 15 and was priced at £3.78.

Two RM Series II machines were in operation at Crewe and Bradford North Enquiry Offices from December 2014. On 9th February 2014 these machines were replaced by two 'new' machines which are to be on trial for six months. These machines are the basic RM Series II machine with the addition of a Barcode reader. Additionally, software options allow customers to pay Postage Due and Customs Duty charges. Of note, the Post & Go labels carried Crewe or Bradford N(orth) strap lines below the tariff rate (this was removed with the tariff rate change on 30th March 2015). Additionally, the bottom code line has the first block starting with the letter 'C' and the second block starting with the letter 'M'. Three more offices at Croydon, Doncaster and Kingston upon Thames had machines installed during April 2015.

An upgrade to the Post Office Post & Go NCR machine network started to be rolled out in September 2016. Machines were installed with a third printer that vended a new style of Open Value label (similar to the present large Horizon Labels). These new larger labels have a hidden date code MA16 which occurs just behind the band of the Queens diadem. They don't carry phosphor bands and don't have die cut perforations. These new style of Open Value labels are vended for items over 100g and carry a scannable QR Code. The first five offices to start providing these new labels came on-line on 20th September 2016.
Year code MA17 started to appear in July 2017.

New tariff rates were introduced on 31st March 2014 with the Worldwide 10g being dropped. Subsequently, it was confirmed the Worldwide 10g rate was still valid and was the same price as the Europe 20g rate. Thus, the Europe 20g rate was corrected to Euro 20g / World 10g from the 5th June 2014 for the new NCR machines. In the case of the Wincor machines, the change did not occur until mid October 2014, albeit the text was in a larger size. | ||||||
The RM Series II versions were available from York Stamp & Coin Fair held between 18th-19th July 2014 (Code 'B7GB14'). |
