    @PostOffice Glad we agree on something! Honestly if you keep appeasing the ppl who throw gays off buildings then you must support it! Pick a side!

  • stuartalker Stuart Alker (@stuartalker) reported from Wigan, England

    @PostOffice They said they've never done it, don't know how to do it and have never heard of it! They found the service on their system and told me what my card balance was but still refused to help me. Ridiculous.

  • therealpaulbond Paul Yarwood (@therealpaulbond) reported from Leigh, England

    Dear @PostOffice **** YOU! Your website tells me that your branch will provide me with a slip for the CN23 form but guess what, they never had and never seen one.

  • helenstho Helen Bells 💙 (@helenstho) reported

    @CooperativeBank You've closed my local branch, now @PostOffice in Fletton, Peterborough are refusing to send my cheques to you without a paying in slip which I don't have leaving me with no money. Help

  • brambles_garden J A Brigginshaw (@brambles_garden) reported

    @PostOffice This is not the first time with this branch. The staff are so rude and there is always a problem and you can’t achieve simple tasks! I just understand the point of the post office if you can’t post, get money out etc. Kind of the point!

  • North_Ayo Tobi (@North_Ayo) reported

    @PostOffice As already mentioned in the tweet I made, THE COMPLAINTS FORMS AND EMAILS DO NOT WORK. Can you please sort this out, as I am going to lose money from this illegal refusal of service very soon. What will you do to ensure I can complete my transaction?

  • MarkOConnor197 Mark O’Connor (@MarkOConnor197) reported

    If you are posting a parcel from 29 county road @PostOffice make sure you know the prices. Cos they give you what you never asked for and over charge you. @PostOfficeNews #Liverpool

  • DeborahMattocks Deborah Mattocks (@DeborahMattocks) reported

    @PostOffice 3 different reasons. 1st said they didn’t do it. 2nd said the machine was broken and 3rd said they couldn’t do it because it was an email rather than a letter.

  • GayatriiM Gee (@GayatriiM) reported

    @gigglypundit +1 . Take their help in manual banking or postoffice work. Or minor repairs. Or as simple as getting dryclean, minor alterations. Makes them happy being needed.

  • rennie_le_smurf Ren (@rennie_le_smurf) reported

    @RoyalMail The stamp swap out service. Howe do we prove anything was sent should it go missing? I tried to get at least get a certificate of posting as proof at least something was sent, but the @PostOffice can't do that without a valid postcode.

  • Chappers82 Fukyo (@Chappers82) reported

    @PostOffice Thank you. It’s the last time I’ll be going there. Closes at 1pm for an hour but people are refused service around 20 mins beforehand. There was hardly a queue of customers and it wouldn’t have taken 20 mins to serve the elderly lady her pension.

  • RRMedics Rapid Response Medic (@RRMedics) reported

    @PostOffice Can u tell me y did Gordon Road Ilford branch decline to take payment in Guernsey issues UK GBP currency? The cashier also accused me of trying to use a "fake" note. Is there a policy stopping branches to accept @UKGovScotland or @Govgg issued notes
