    @PostOffice Why have the five expensive self-service machines in your Newcastle Northumberland St branch been switched off all week? This is my third trip as the queues have been too long all week. I only want to weigh and post a couple of things!

    @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

    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

    @PostOffice It’s been going on since before COVID. The normally post office was shut down and put into the other store to make things quicker, but it’s definitely not.

    @PostOffice Not working since Saturday

    @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.

    @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.

  • 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?

  • jamesbuffyboyle

    @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.

    It's not NHS staff E.G. those on the front-line, saving and caring for the infirm. Nope, it's "management". The same characters who are involved in #Grenfell; #postoffice and government. It's the so-called "eletes" vs the plebs. Not creed vs the poor. Two-tier "justice".

    @PostOffice You give a shite service. I have missed TWO hospital appointments because of your poor service and been blamed for it🤬and now you have the nerve to put up the price of stamps🤬.You cannot talk to a manager because he/she is always 'unavailable'

    @ArturNadol7566 @PostOffice Calum is there pretending to help to protect his own back. With the exception of one of their own NEDs who told the inquiry she had witnessed remote access in Fujitsu and also sat on a £65k branch deficit for 3 years, NFSP told everyone 'You're on your own'.

  • katiegilchrist
    Katie MacScottie (@katiegilchrist) reported

    @DonaldPond6 @PostOffice It’s because profit at the counter is more important than service at some POs. My local is like a bartering situation. They start at the highest price and I have to keep saying “no, I don’t need that, what’s the cheapest?” several times until I get what is quoted online.

    @PostOffice Halifax post office was a joke this morning. Tried to return Amazon parcel, queued for 10 mins then told to get back in the queue for another till to be told scanner wasn’t working and to come back another day. Staff member was rude, yawning and totally uninterested

    @postoffice daughter is stuck at Leamington Spa post office trying to collect ordered (and paid for) currency. Staff says transaction not completed despite money being taken. Going to airport at 4am so no way to collect. Very poor service
