  • Mrs_Moir Lee-Ann Moir (@Mrs_Moir) reported from Dunston, England

    @NFSP_UK need to be held accountable for their complicity in the @PostOffice treatment of sub- postmasters - they are just as guilty as they did nothing to help members instead they protected the post office.

  • ProjectSapper Sapper Project (@ProjectSapper) reported from Seaham, England

    Had to write a cheque the other day, no idea where my cheque book is so got a postal order instead. £35 postal order cost me £39.80!!!! WTF!! Why does it cost so much? Surely a £35 postal order should be £35 or something like a £1 processing fee max @PostOffice #ripoff

  • reecelyonssound Reece Lyons (@reecelyonssound) reported from South Shields, England

    @PostOffice Carden street branch, south shields is a constant disappointment. Rude staff, making up their own rules as per when they will accept parcels, and now not complying with measures to ensure a covid-safe space. I hate to be that person, but it's not the first issue.

  • jamesbuffyboyle James Buffy Boyle (@jamesbuffyboyle) reported from Whitley Bay, England

    @PostOffice I cant get onto your website to make a payment? It says: “Service Unavailable HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable.” Can you please DM me? Thanks.

  • bigjohnuk_john john mclauchlin (@bigjohnuk_john) reported from Wallsend, England

    @PostOffice really disappointed, checked your exchange rate for dollars today $1.27 but was only given $1.22 in store, that's almost airport rates! asked for immediate refund but refused, to top it currency not in stock - poor customer service today

  • prlumley Peter Lumley (@prlumley) reported from Whickham, England

    Well done in the Customer Services stakes:NOT. ? Is it @mccolls ? or is it @morrison who arbitrarily close their NE16 local @postoffice because today the (understaffed anyway) "convenience" store ain't got enough workers. THE "sprat to catch a mackerel" ruse short of bait now?

    @PostOffice Yes, I have been trying since yesterday but automated service cuts me off after a few mins!! #poorcustomerservice

  • TravelsPostcard Postcard Travels (@TravelsPostcard) reported

    @PostOffice Poor service today at a local sub post office. I needed extra postage to make up for the increased postage rate on a letter to Europe. Was charged more than I needed - the postmaster no longer stocked 1p, 2p,5p stamps since he said "no one bothers sending letters" now

  • IndiaPostOffice India Post (@IndiaPostOffice) reported

    @RTIACTIVISTRTI You are requested to furnish the name of the specific postoffice i/r/o complaint regarding 'staff leaving postoffice early' so that necessary inquiry can be made.

  • AuthorHelenJ Helen Glynn-Jones (@AuthorHelenJ) reported

    Currently in a massive queue at the post office - about 20 people waiting and one teller. Don’t know why they bother having all those other tills as I’ve never seen more than three open at one time 🙄 @PostOffice

  • Scadden83 Dave Scadden (@Scadden83) reported

    @PostOffice I just had the most horrendous experience st the Bracknell post office. Terrible staff,rejecting my parcel and telling me it was people selling crap and poating that was the problem.

  • Si_ndw Hello there (@Si_ndw) reported

    @PostOffice @declanmc My mother in law has just called me to say she's experiencing the same issue. Broadband gone off and tried to call customer services but she keeps getting cut off. @PostOffice what are her options?

  • DaphneCharles Daphne Charles (@DaphneCharles) reported

    @postoffice Appalling customer service for broadband. Website won't let me change my call plan, No agents on chat. No response to email after 4 days. Phone goes silent then cuts off. Covid no longer an excuse - surely call staff can work from home

  • Van__De_Ven Josh (@Van__De_Ven) reported

    @PostOffice Is there a faster way to contact you about a home phone fault than trying to call you? My vulnerable neighbour's phones are not working and I have a one year old screaming at me while i sit through endless loops of recorded messages

  • lbloli55 Lori B (@lbloli55) reported

    @CalBearCanha @cuppingmaster @_kimms_ I live up north and the Safeway and Holiday stores really try to enforce the masks. They have someone at the doors and walk around. Some people of course will not follow rules. Agree Costco is the best. I find the postoffice to be the worst.😬 Live in country so have PO Box.

  • LilywhiteSimon Longman Snr. (@LilywhiteSimon) reported

    @TravelsPostcard @PostOffice WTF?! It’s not like the postmasters have to pay for them, they just have to be organised enough to order them.
