Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • rsdrussell Roo the Tog - Anticontagionist (@rsdrussell) reported

    @bluedaysomeday @trent900uk @PostOffice And what will the world look like when every single transaction is logged and recorded? No cash and coin, no ‘black market’? Do you think they’ll build more hospitals and schools from the new revenue streams earned?! Everything is about control, top down, total control!

  • Marco55229707 Marco (@Marco55229707) reported

    @PostOffice Probably to do with the way you treated those poor post masters !

  • nigelsutherland Cartoonist from a Scottish Island👍 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 (@nigelsutherland) reported from Rothesay, Scotland

    @sarahcrowsnest @PostOffice They gain by getting customers who can pay without having to go to the trouble of getting cash, from whichever machine is closest. Instant purchase. Cash is dead. Completely pointless in this day and age.

  • bluedaysomeday philip bartlett (@bluedaysomeday) reported

    @PostOffice And the mass use of quick, easy and cheap ATM’s in shops etc? The mass use of contactless making payments easier? Most places use card readers. Real money, is redundant in most settings now due to technology. What’s the issue?

  • DewhurstTony Tony Dewhurst (@DewhurstTony) reported

    @PostOffice Trouble with banks is that they really hate, I mean really really hate, providing banking services.

  • Thegujjuchokro suketu shah (@Thegujjuchokro) reported

    I send a parcel through @PostOffice after 10 days they ask me to contact @RoyalMail then they ask me to contact @parcelforce even after paying 150pounds for a parcel. Idky customer service is so bad and charges are so high.

  • rsdrussell Roo the Tog - Anticontagionist (@rsdrussell) reported

    @bluedaysomeday @PostOffice The fact that you can’t see the issue with every single transaction will be monitored and recorded is the issue. Take a moment and consider what a world without cash and coin would look like.

  • cliff602 Lord Monkey Tarka Daal of Egg and Spoon ☕ (@cliff602) reported

    @PostOffice I disagree. The Post Office has closed down hundreds of Crown offices and given them to WH Smith to run. If that isn't privatisation I don't know what is

  • cliff602 Lord Monkey Tarka Daal of Egg and Spoon ☕ (@cliff602) reported

    @KateJon41196503 @PostOffice Post Office staff see their place of work close, their jobs gone but they can apply for the same job 3 doors down the road in Smiths now on a fraction of the wage they enjoyed before, now no longer Post Office clerks but now Smiths staff, that's privatisation.

  • amberbeacon Old Boötes (@amberbeacon) reported

    @PostOffice Have you apologised yet for falsely accusing and in some cases criminalising all those post masters and mistresses because of the errors in the software you made them use? Has anybody taken responsibility for the zealous and arrogant approach to these unmerited prosecutions?

  • cliff602 Lord Monkey Tarka Daal of Egg and Spoon ☕ (@cliff602) reported

    @PostOffice Nothing to say about the gutting of the Crown network? Nothing to say about the appalling bullying and harassment because of Horizon? Nothing to say about staff and customers being sold down the river by back door privatisation? Thought not.

  • cliff602 Lord Monkey Tarka Daal of Egg and Spoon ☕ (@cliff602) reported

    @PostOffice Moaning about bank closures when you've done exactly the same and stuffed your PO into Smiths. Smiths multi award winning worst customer service on the high Street who as I tweet are gutting stores of postal clerks so they've someone to put their padded bags out. HYPOCRITES.

  • sharonhearne11 sharon hearne 🇬🇧 (@sharonhearne11) reported

    @PostOffice We need both cash and card. It’s not broken so let’s not fix it!

  • nikhilwgl nikhil (@nikhilwgl) reported

    @MC_GWMC What a pathetic condition of road from Warangal chowrasta to postoffice. When will this work be completed. The road from post office to pochamma maidan is worst condition.

  • samblonde007 Samantha Alexander (@samblonde007) reported

    @duncanr2 @PostOffice Exactly my first thoughts. ‘In an abusive relationship - save money with the post office’ terrible marketing.

  • theRealDeal506 The Real Deal (@theRealDeal506) reported

    @PostOffice I’d happily never use cash again. We maybe need to help teach people how to manage their money better instead of sticking with the easy always been ways

  • RobStok29450572 Rob Stokes (@RobStok29450572) reported

    @PostOffice Totally support this!!

  • ccityplanner12 ccity (@ccityplanner12) reported

    @rorufufufu @PostOffice It is right for an arm of the state to help people live independently of the financial system, which would be a lot less favourable to consumers if they didn't have an exit power.

  • bluedaysomeday philip bartlett (@bluedaysomeday) reported

    @Paddytastic_123 @PostOffice If vending machines can go contactless, then most businesses can. Unless it’s for “Tax” reasons… Banks were good when you had checks, cash deposits and no online or limited phone customer services. The world is moving on. We still need physical post offices though.

  • neilpwalker Neil Walker (@neilpwalker) reported

    @siany_d @PostOffice Sian, it should be sufficient to prevent damage if handled normally. The force taken to split both front and back hard covers as well as distorting every page in the book is beyond anything you would expect , particularly as the padded envelope and bubble wrap were intact !!

  • AnnD81 Anna (@AnnD81) reported

    @iaatkinson @PostOffice All those people working in banks are just keeling over. Can never be too careful!🧴🙄

  • M20032754 M (@M20032754) reported

    @PostOffice I have a better solution. Get rid of banks and centralised finance. They are the ones who close branches and don’t give a damn about those who are excluded from the current financial system.

  • Thegujjuchokro suketu shah (@Thegujjuchokro) reported

    @RoyalMailHelp @PostOffice have send a parcel from London to India paying 150 pounds with 5 days guarantee delivery its been 10 days now and there is no update, plus customer service isnt reachable and there isnt any response to mails. Best service ever.

  • tommousk Ian (Free Assange) #aworldwithoutTories (@tommousk) reported

    @PostOffice Will you also be referring to the opposite behaviour you inflicted on scores of sub-postmasters by knowingly pursuing fraudulent financial demands, some of whom were driven to death as a result? Privatisation sucks doesn't it?

  • ccityplanner12 ccity (@ccityplanner12) reported

    @cliff602 @PostOffice Smith's – twice the price and half the service of just about every other shop.

  • RobertS71167549 Rob Shelley (@RobertS71167549) reported

    @PostOffice The Post Office. Just how crap can an organisation be?

  • Lovely_Laura_F Laura Donnelly (@Lovely_Laura_F) reported

    @Al652 @theRealDeal506 @PostOffice I don't remember the last time card issues prevented me paying for anything. Which is good cuz I rarely carry cash. So for me it's card payment it nothing, especially during a global pandemic.

  • rupertingram6 TheDonRude (@rupertingram6) reported

    @MediaWeasel @PostOffice You can pay delivery tips with your card. You can pay for taxis with your card. Almost all charity shops take card. If a high street shop dosent take card they are at a huge disadvantage and a bad business decision not to take card, ive also never been to a shop/restaurant /bar

  • ElderlyMan10 John Broomfield (@ElderlyMan10) reported

    @PostOffice Then lobby the government to lower the charges on card transactions for businesses. Or offer a service yourself. That is the future. I know many young people. Very few under 25 use cash. Old folk like me are dying, cash will die with that. As it should.

  • sarahcrowsnest Sarah Boait (@sarahcrowsnest) reported

    @nigelsutherland @PostOffice Of course cards are convenient for the customer. But why should the banks take something away from small businesses on every purchase?
