    @PostOffice Me: February 28th, despise every single corrupt idiot who works for Post Office Me: March 1st, watching Anne Allaker lying her stupid head off in the inquiry just to waste even more time and money, and hat8ng you all even more. Hand yourselves in to the police, you crooks!

  • sandratizzard Sandra Tizzard (@sandratizzard) reported

    The culture in @PostOffice is loud and very clear. So many assumptions, that were handed down. No awareness that the contract didn’t actually state Spmrs were responsible for losses that weren’t due to their actions. There was no allowance for that possibility #PostOfficeScandal

  • DarrellRoot Darrell Root (@DarrellRoot) reported

    @brianwhelton @PostOffice @fujitsu_uk Some consultants get paid to always find issues. Some consultants get paid to never find issues.

  • NataliaDaviesUK Natalia (@NataliaDaviesUK) reported

    @PostOffice appalling management and customers service in Chelmsford High street branch. One person serving all the customers and 2 scanning letters. No respect to disabled customers. Horrible.

  • xplodinglemon lemon (@xplodinglemon) reported

    @coyleneil @PostOffice i walk past this post offic every day and i’ve never seen it not busy or without a queue

  • DarrenWheeler Darren Wheeler 💉x4 (@DarrenWheeler) reported

    @brianwhelton @PostOffice @fujitsu_uk I get the feeling they never actually looked. I've said it before and will repeat ad nauseum. There needs to conspiracy to and perverting the course of justice charges for those at the top.

  • james_christie James Christie 🇺🇦 (@james_christie) reported

    @brianwhelton @PostOffice @fujitsu_uk ...take a dim view of time-wasting arguments that bugs are necessarily less significant if they do not affect all users. It's a stupid stance to take, but the Post Office persisted with it. Not systemic? Not a real problem. It was utter nonsense, and deliberately misleading. 3/3

  • AimeeGower AimeeGower ☽ (@AimeeGower) reported

    @PostOffice so is it a rule that you employee the rudest people in the UK just went to your Farringdon branch and there was no manners he was was rude for no reason awful man

    @mkiceburnmarko @PostOffice @fujitsu_uk I don't think Horizions issues weren't network related (aside connectivity), it was the applications running on hosts. Horizon was hosted on a terminal, not the network. It was the software/configuration/integration and interoperability of different programs that was the issue.

  • LindaOw92651003 Linda Owen (@LindaOw92651003) reported

    @PostOffice Hi Stephen… I appreciate that you said you passed this complaint to the complaint handler to chase but it’s now been 16 days since I sent it to you for help & 2 & half months since I had any email response. I don’t think this is an acceptable length of time to have to wait.

  • brianwhelton 𝔅͛𝔯͛𝔦͛𝔞͛𝔫͛ ͛𝔚͛𝔥͛𝔢͛𝔩͛𝔱͛𝔬͛𝔫͛ (@brianwhelton) reported

    @james_christie @PostOffice @fujitsu_uk If you have a bug that affect multiple locations, another that affected several others, then others that affects other locations, but not those others, I'd say your system has 'issues'. That amount of unpredictable/repeatable issues would be described by me as systemic issues.

  • cmdhindle Charlotte (@cmdhindle) reported

    @coyleneil @PostOffice And while you are at it, please ask what's happening at the SE1 sorting office, Mandela Way. We get post once a week at best, every 10 days at worst. Plus, someone there regularly insists we have "gone away" and this holds up the post even more.

  • RyeHillTRA RyeHillTRA (@RyeHillTRA) reported

    @WalworthSociety @PostOffice So much for the 15 minute city. Further disadvantaging the poor, vulnerable and elderly. Sickening considering the banks will soon pull out of this area too. Curious as to what, if any, representation the elected officials in this area made to the Post Office to save this

  • davidareader David Reader (@davidareader) reported from Rochdale, England

    So, anyway, besides the gripe about you being stuck in the past.. How about clarifying @PostOffice policy on providing proof of postage .. and if you won't, how about @RoyalMailHelp fix their processes to not require it?

  • sjboxoffice sonjajakovljevflash (@sjboxoffice) reported

    @PostOffice Well. Travel money card in 12 different values. I just came from Europe with 160 E and 5 Pounds - on it. As I have had some bad UBER experiences, to me was important to CLOSE the CARD ASAP, and take money out. I follow instruction and did went in post office #1

  • dewrimkarabulut Devrim (@dewrimkarabulut) reported

    @coyleneil @PostOffice Good morning Neil, there is no heating and @lb_southwark repair team do not pick up the phones. I have been calling them since 9am. I think you should have a meeting with the manager. Their service is poor. I pay my council and income tax and I do not deserve their poor service.

  • manoskalamenios madebymanos (@manoskalamenios) reported

    @PostOffice was in Richmond Post office and the manager told me that the self-service kiosks doesn't accept anymore international parcels and I have to queue for them in the counter from now on. Is that correct? New policy apparently.

  • davidareader David Reader (@davidareader) reported

    @tony_sutton @PostOffice @RoyalMailHelp Post Office IT really is a shitshow though. I have some sympathy with the postmaster when presented with a sackfull of items, but as it is I've paid for a service that purports to do what I want and I'd like to receive it.

  • mkiceburnmarko mark kelly (@mkiceburnmarko) reported

    @sandratizzard @PostOffice Esp when one have arm robbery to like just said in inquiry, one subject to cyber attack on Horizon moneygram network

  • sjboxoffice sonjajakovljevflash (@sjboxoffice) reported

    @PostOffice 5 pounds is charged for the transaction. Did not make no sense as I can withdraw money for myself without charges. She said there is no way back on the BANK account. Lady advised me to call the number on the back of the card to discuss my issues -

    @vikasanandjee As per reply received from SPOs Nalanda. It is to intimate that the above said matter is related to Ekangar Dih Branch Postoffice, Ekangardih B.O IPPB transaction done regularly and no any trouble in IPPB transaction.

  • james_christie James Christie 🇺🇦 (@james_christie) reported

    @brianwhelton @PostOffice @fujitsu_uk ...eg comms problems producing discrepancies between a branch & the central system. Second Sight did identify such problems in their first report. The Post Office definition of systemic is a distraction in practical terms. Working as a test manager or IT auditor I would...2/3

  • sjboxoffice sonjajakovljevflash (@sjboxoffice) reported

    @PostOffice after the phone call finished I transferred euros in GBP in the app- I had 165£- I can go and pick on any cash point for my self- I would like to know who are #postoffice employees- that want to "help" me, and CHARGE me those enormous sums for CASH WRIDRAW? Why barcode transfer?

  • mkiceburnmarko mark kelly (@mkiceburnmarko) reported

    @brianwhelton @PostOffice @fujitsu_uk One thing to point to PO managers, each branches are quite unique with product selection they offer, to number of counters,type of staff, and communication network used. Hence, it is very inpartical for all network to suffer the same bug issue.

  • tewkesmark Mark (@tewkesmark) reported

    @PostOffice completely unacceptable customer service at Cheltenham WHSmiths. Massive queue of people being ignored by 2 members of staff.

  • pmyrps Phil (@pmyrps) reported

    @PostOffice I keep on getting an ‘error’ message when I try and log into my newly opened account. Is there a problem with the website and when will it be fixed?

  • Mutleyspaw TheRacingMutley (@Mutleyspaw) reported

    @PostOffice . @Anna_Firth @GMB_X03 Just counted 25 people in the queue now. It’s actually really unfair on the single member of staff who is here on their own, as well as a disgraceful service
