  • North_Ayo Tobi (@North_Ayo) reported

    @PostOffice Can i please have an update on this asap. What exactly is Stephen looking into, as the Post Office does not have a working complaints form or email address? I would like to make a serious complaint.

  • Silanbd Boocie (@Silanbd) reported

  • Chris_Jubb Chris Jubb (@Chris_Jubb) reported

    @PostOffice Charles Street PO, Sheffield refused to swap old stamps for new barcoded ones saying they'd already sent theirs (old ones) back. Server was rude and obnoxious to my mum (who doesn't use social media). Should they have swapped her stamps for her?

  • brian_lewis67 Brian Lewis (@brian_lewis67) reported

    @davesumnersmith @RoyalMail @PostOffice Cost wise not a chance but my postman has never thrown a delivery over my side gate or put it in my garden waste bin.

  • North_Ayo Tobi (@North_Ayo) reported

    @PostOffice Hi, my issue is that I haven't been able to officially make a complaint. There is nothing to look into because the Post Office complaints forms and emails don't work. There is nothing that Stephen can be looking into yet. I want to speak to someone so I can make the complaint!

  • stuartcturnbull Stuart Turnbull (@stuartcturnbull) reported

    @davesumnersmith @RoyalMail @PostOffice It started before privatisation where they were put in the position of having to provide the full UK service, while courier companies weren't, but then negotiated for RM to do the 'last mile' at discounted rates. Then, have you seen the profits taken out?

  • scotlandpage Michael Dee 🧡 (@scotlandpage) reported from Glasgow, Scotland

    @davesumnersmith @RoyalMail @PostOffice It went from being a public service to a plc serving shareholders

  • shiven_tripathe Shivendra Tripathi (@shiven_tripathe) reported

    @IndiaPostOffice @AshwiniVaishnaw I can't understand the issue persists with Ghaziabad PostOffice. Last letter without updating on web they return at that time conti raining. But now again, RT538405785IN insufficient Address? Sent it to Bisrakh Post office. All letters came.

  • kbear58 A Kerr (@kbear58) reported

    @PostOffice Can you sort out the problem whereby customers with EDF smart cards are advised to redeem their £66 vouchers in the Post Office, but the Post Office is unable to process them?

  • sumatsgottagive John Kemp (@sumatsgottagive) reported

    @CarrollJackie99 Thanks. Hadn't heard of this. but WHY on earth can't you change them in the @PostOffice ?? We've got to got to the trouble of sending them in to get them swapped! FFS 😡

  • fatalgrizzly fatalgrizzly (@fatalgrizzly) reported

    @PostOffice Between 10:00-10:30. Always issues there and seems pointless to have it.

  • ze_random_one Tim Vince (@ze_random_one) reported

    @PostOffice hi, I DM'd you a query about parcel collection (Post Office Local Collect) because the post office claims their system is down. How can I collect this parcel?

  • sandratizzard Sandra Tizzard (@sandratizzard) reported

    @AltafHussainSWW @PostOffice Unless Spmrs are paid more than what it costs them to deliver the service then access to cash will be short lived. It is not right that the Spmr’s private retail business subsidises offering PO services. Perhaps you need to visit rural branches and get a more realistic picture.

  • Sarahrawrasaur Sarah Marsland (@Sarahrawrasaur) reported

    @PostOffice please sort your online opening times out for Oldham delivery office. 3 times I’ve driven there as online it states it is open, for it to be closed. And it isn’t even my closest office and cost a fortune in petrol. Complaint has been sent.

  • Fairy_Foot Mia (@Fairy_Foot) reported

    @billymillest @PostOffice Unfortunately, my local main crown post office has stopped selling the commemorative issues. Frustrating to travel over 10 miles to spend over £50 at a nice post office which does have them. Totally forgot about the stamps last week, and if I want them, have to buy direct from RM

  • Mark_doodle Mark Dobson 💙 (@Mark_doodle) reported

    @davesumnersmith @RoyalMail @PostOffice The RM has been stripped back and exploited to the point of breaking. Its all about squeezing profit at the expense of service.

  • Fairy_Foot Mia (@Fairy_Foot) reported

    @PostOffice @NPhilatelics Up until September, my main crown did stock special issues stamps. September, they had only miniature sheets (and perhaps presentation packs) for Transformers & Marines. Called it a trial to not get the stamps. I tend to spend £50+ on commemorative issues especially with £1.85.

  • cayogesh83 CA Yogesh Khandelwal (@cayogesh83) reported

    @PostOffice new slogan " need to improve service " specially for senior citizen. @ ramganj ajmer post office. Bad behavior.

    @davesumnersmith @RoyalMail @PostOffice Greed poor management 😢

  • dharmendrabmb Dharmendra singh (@dharmendrabmb) reported

    @Adv_pcsharma @IndiaPostOffice Well to be frank #postoffice #Siwan not giving good service. And after my tweet @IndiaPostOffice said it’s not traceable how? Already I have given speedpost tracking no which I received through sms

  • xeze2r87xo1sw02 Patrick OShaughnessy (@xeze2r87xo1sw02) reported

    @Shelle02 @PostOffice It is never too late to mend

  • ali3nfuckf3st Sammyyy ✨ (@ali3nfuckf3st) reported

    Can you please tell me if deliveries will be back to normal tomorrow 26th October? I'm waiting for important delivery of medication that I needed today and had to resort to calling 111 for emergency medication as I'm at risk of seizures @RoyalMailHelp @RoyalMail @PostOffice

  • herty007 herty0007 (@herty007) reported

    @BritishGas @PostOffice @professorgreen 14 days I have been waiting for a reply on your DM as to why I still have not received my £66 prepayment meter voucher , also 2 1/2 hours on live chat tonight going round in circles with the totally useless people who seem purposefully as vague as possible, hoping you hang up

  • David_Llew David Gardner 🇪🇺🇬🇧🌍🇺🇦 (@David_Llew) reported from London, England

    Appalling @PostOffice service @WHSmith Woolwich, queue closed 45minutes early, machines all out of order. They promised us an improved service when the Crown @PostOffice was closed.

  • ali3nfuckf3st Sammyyy ✨ (@ali3nfuckf3st) reported

    Royal mail guaranteed delivery by 1pm didn't arrive... They'll use the excuse of strikes even though I had no issue using it the last time they done a strike... I was expecting important item and nobody can give me an answer!!!!! @RoyalMail @RoyalMailHelp @PostOffice

  • RetiredRevsMrs Sue Milton (@RetiredRevsMrs) reported

    @PostOffice Probably not with strikes in November - but who can afford to send them - such a terrible price only for the rich

  • shankarsweety karthick shankar (@shankarsweety) reported

    I booked a parcel YA561413335IN through india post on 01.10.2022 but still now not yet reach to customer. After 03.10.2022 no updates. So please update as soon as possible #indiapost #PostOfficeInquiry #postoffice

    @speedpostdandi My wife Passport by article number PP105334140IN received by post office on 20th Oct2022 at 08:11AM by Rudrapur postoffice but still awaiting. Complaint registered but no response

  • siancruick Siân Cruickshanks (@siancruick) reported

    @RoyalMail @PostOffice paid for Special Delivery twice now. 1st time delivered a day late. 2nd time my letter is still showing at my local post office nearly 36 hours after posting. What’s the point of offering a service you can’t fulfill?

  • SforStuart Stuart (@SforStuart) reported

    Deposited a cheque for @BankofScotland at my local @PostOffice (Bearsted) on the 12th October and it still has not got to the bank account yet. Got the receipt of deposit but does not seem to be of any use - #help #PostOfficeInquiry
