  • BrianMcAuslan Brian (@BrianMcAuslan) reported from Hackney, England

    @PostOffice Thanks Ryan, much appreciated. I did politely explain to him that these are free but was subsequently called a “b*stard” upon leaving. Not really a great standard of customer service, and surely not in line with Post Office values? Would be grateful if this could be fed back.

  • JoyceBenaich Joyce Benaich (@JoyceBenaich) reported from Camden Town, England

    @PostOffice I sent a international tracked letter to the US on the 7th of October and USPS are still waiting for the letter to be handed to them. Please can you help it’s been a week and it hasn’t left the uk!

  • symbosimbo SiBurman (@symbosimbo) reported from London, England

    @PostOffice Since the service has moved into existing shops the service has been far better! Keep up the good work. Ignore the vile comments on here. We've still got a way to go obviously.

  • primrosetaxi CB MM UTAG UCG 👊🏻 (@primrosetaxi) reported from Tottenham, England

  • sickamps sickamps (@sickamps) reported from Harlow, England

    @PostOffice @RoyalMailHelp The refusal of taking parcels happened at the post office. They scanned fine at the Royal mail non customer, customer service. Not only was it an extended wait outside in the cold but the attendant was very rude and didn't explain anything.

  • RuthRobinsonLon Ruth Robinson (@RuthRobinsonLon) reported from Islington, England

    @chrish9070 @PostOffice @beisgovuk @scullyp @BBCPanorama @BBCRadio4 @BBCfileon4 @PrivateEyeNews @nickwallis @MetroBank_Help so far & it’s not over yet. They @MetroBank_Help keep asking me for the same information over and over. I put in in an e mail as they request and then they ask for it in a letter ! It’s a joke ! One of their customer service chaps was so patronising to me ( its the Irish accent)

  • RuthRobinsonLon Ruth Robinson (@RuthRobinsonLon) reported from Islington, England

    Perhaps by now the manager of the @PostOffice has realised that lying about being the manager might have been stupid. If he has any brains at all he’ll already have a new job 🌝

  • shah4569 Shah™ (@shah4569) reported from Romford, England

    @PostOffice my local post office charged me for a service that I shouldn't have been charged for, now he's refusing to give me a refund. Can anyone help?

  • ithattheatre Imagine That Theatre (@ithattheatre) reported from London, England

    @PostOffice I have two parcels posted using the signed for service on 15 December that have yet to leave Mottingham Post Office. I understand you’re busy but any idea why it’s been 6 days and no delivery?

  • FatherFantaskis Dave Taskis (@FatherFantaskis) reported from Romford, England

    Hey @BBCNews please stop saying “cash disappeared” from Post Offices. Money never there; it was a figment of #Horizon, the most ill-begotten #ITsystem of a generation. Badly specified, badly implemented, badly tested. Stonewalled by @PostOffice senior managers. #NationalScandal

  • V_Putrino Valentina Putrino (@V_Putrino) reported from Hackney, England

    @PostOffice broadband is literally dropping down every 30 mins. How on earth am I supposed to wfh?

  • apjoseph2013 Arun Joseph (@apjoseph2013) reported from Ilford, England

    @PostOffice @RoyalMailHelp Hi, having spoken to number of my neighbours we are a concerned that we’ve not received *any* post for about 10 days now. This is the IG2 6 area. We can’t get through to the local post office via phone as no one is answering. Can you please help?

  • primrosetaxi CB MM UTAG UCG 👊🏻 (@primrosetaxi) reported from Tottenham, England

    @PostOffice I’m sick of this now.. where’s my Money. You stole £300 from me and never paid @TfLTPH my money for my license!!! I raised a dispute with you and you’ve not even acknowledged my dispute or email! Seriously!!!

  • MarkGra11601194 Mark Graham (@MarkGra11601194) reported from Hertfordshire, England

    @NFTSAlumni @PostOffice A lot of the comments on here really do show why it is necessary for @PostOffice and other large bodies to show support and solidarity like this. If you cannot see what is positive about this then the message was probably meant for you.

  • V_Putrino Valentina Putrino (@V_Putrino) reported from Hackney, England

    @PostOffice You can send me an engineer to come and fix the problem?

  • Judit_Sz Judit Szarka (@Judit_Sz) reported from Enfield Lock, England

    @PostOffice utterly ridiculous that your staff won’t allow me to collect my #amazonprime order with my bank card and email confirmation. First and last time I tried to use this service.

  • RuthRobinsonLon Ruth Robinson (@RuthRobinsonLon) reported from Islington, England

    @chrish9070 @PostOffice @beisgovuk @scullyp @BBCPanorama @BBCRadio4 @BBCfileon4 @PrivateEyeNews @nickwallis @MetroBank_Help I’ve had to make a complaint about them. I banked happily with Lloyds since around 1988 without a single issues and then I had the misfortune 2 be handed to @TSB and that’s been a litany of misery - some people just don’t respect the Irish and there is no getting away from this.

  • V_Putrino Valentina Putrino (@V_Putrino) reported from Hackney, England

    @PostOffice broadband is awfully slow in my area. Tried to get in contact with customer assistance and yet no answer. Any suggestion?

  • DeFrenZ Davide De Franceschi (@DeFrenZ) reported from East Ham, England

    @alexforey @PostOffice It’s so bad that I wouldn’t publicise it

  • BallardsLane Barbara (@BallardsLane) reported from Barnet, England

    @PostOffice And the National Health Service? They use 🌈 now.
