Is it permissible for a mail carrier to deliver bank statements from banks to their customers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
May Allah forgive you, O Shaykh. Regarding mail carriers, bank statements now come to them to be delivered to the bank's customers. I do not know what the ruling on this is. May Allah reward you.

The Shaykh : But do they know that there is riba (usury or interest) in these letters?

The questioner : No, they know that it contains only a bank statement.

The Shaykh : There is nothing in it, because if the bank statement does not contain riba (usury or interest), there is nothing wrong with it.

The questioner : May Allah bless you.

The Shaykh : Yes, exactly.
