    @PostOffice I bought an apple gift card from you that was faulty and I’ve contacted apple support, sent them loads of information and pictures of the gift card and receipt I was given and they are telling me that the piece of paper that you gave me is not proof of purchase ….

  • TheDerbywalk John Sandys (@TheDerbywalk) reported

    @PostOffice @RoyalMailHelp Apologies. However, it was allegedly sent from a post office, so there is a connection, and the Royal Mail tracking service is saying 'awaiting collection' and has been for 72hrs.

  • Mrs_Chatty Annie Chatham (@Mrs_Chatty) reported

    @PostOffice How is it that a card posted 1st Class at a Post Office on Thursday has only just arrived (Tuesday). What an appalling, expensive service.

  • pplrstupid977 peoplearestupid77 (@pplrstupid977) reported

    @suebright01 @PostOffice @PostOfficeNews If they are shoet of staff then they can open the self service kiosks because they cant man those as well. 30 mins in a queue is pretty standard fpr the Post Office. Go earlier or plan your time more eddiciently

    @IndiaPostOffice Terrible staff behavior and no separate queues for ladies/gents at Mahadevapura Post Office, Karnataka! Is this how we serve citizens, @CMOKarnataka? This hinders ease of access & respect. Urgently need reforms in customer service @IndiaPostOffice. #Karnataka #PostOffice

    @Ocean___Water @Sipho_Says Way back we used to get it from PostOffice , but now adays GPO is basically non-existent . Everything is down the drain, but we still have to pay.

  • THDANZ HELZ (@THDANZ) reported

    Imagine the banks around you close down and then @PostOffice say they don't change money because they "aren't making money" from that 😒 good to know they're unhelpful on purpose

  • abbieb25 abigail ball (@abbieb25) reported

    Absolutely disgusted by the appalling, uncaring and rude Customer Service my 82 year old mother recieved at her post office branch, @PostOffice I've been on hold to royal mail for over 40 minutes to be told they can't deal with it.

  • mrsbluemoon8 Joanna Barrass (@mrsbluemoon8) reported

    @PostOffice @parcelforce I posted a laptop with you almost 2 weeks ago. Paid £72. For some reason it’s returned to sender HOWEVER it is yet to get back to me. No one seems to be able to help me. Call centre hung up on me. Can someone please help?

  • dannomore2023 dan smith (@dannomore2023) reported

    @RoyalMailHelp how do i log a complaint when both @RoyalMailHelp and @PostOffice are giving me the run around i.e. both are refusing to help both are blaming each other.

    @PostOffice I completed a CN22 form electronically when I bought the label. I didn’t attach it though to the parcel. I attached only the label. Is this a major issue??

  • shaunriley1954 Shaun Riley (@shaunriley1954) reported

    @PaulTheDon89 @KateJon41196503 @PostOffice I have never had any problems in the past.

  • PaulTheDon89 Paul (@PaulTheDon89) reported

    @KateJon41196503 @PostOffice @shaunriley1954 Yup. Find it so much easier if customer fills one in first for NI. Stops any errors or spelling mistakes 😬

  • P___diddy___ Pee_did_he (@P___diddy___) reported

    @carolinejwatson @MartinSLewis banking cash fair enough 👌🏻 I am pro cash ironically surely the banks/postoffice can set up a service in most towns and cities 🤔 my church accepts donations via card payment , tap tap no more rattle rattle lol

  • suebright01 susan bright (@suebright01) reported

    @PostOffice @PostOfficeNews About 30 mins all in, which is a huge chunk of someone’s lunchtime. Self service points would have solved some of the issue but quite a few dropping parcels - There must be a more efficient way to print labels and drop off.

  • atenrad amelia (@atenrad) reported

    What do I do when a @PostOffice staff member stole from me, but they are refusing to help? Pretty sure I’ll get “messaged you privately” tweet back. But with absolutely zero help. I got told to open a case, which I did, they told me it’s not their job to help but is @NatWest_Help

  • atenrad amelia (@atenrad) reported

    Had a @PostOffice staff member lie about the amount of cash I was depositing to obviously keep the rest, yet post office are telling me they can’t help and it’s @NatWest_Help job to help? What’s your staff members stealing got to do with my bank.

  • 00_Nessie Ness ( no DM's unless I know U )😂🍷🍿🍻 (@00_Nessie) reported

    @Michaelrt86 @PostOffice @BDAdyslexia Talk about rude,,it wouldn't have taken her two minutes to just help you.

  • scottmcgregor88 Scott (@scottmcgregor88) reported

    @PostOffice Hi I was refused service in your Broadway Market (E8 4PW) yesterday as I was trying to bank cash and had Bank of Scotland notes. I was told they cannot accept that and to call ‘head office’. I bank with Post Office every week, has policy changed?

  • yippykyayy Christopher (@yippykyayy) reported

    @PostOffice chesterfield WH Smith post office. Still the worst experience in post office staff management.

  • bengillam Ben Gillam - Ghost (@bengillam) reported
