  • 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?

  • chrisbird9 chris bird (@chrisbird9) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

  • 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

  • chlological chlo (@chlological) reported from South Shields, England

    @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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • vitosauras H (@vitosauras) reported from Gateshead, England

    @PostOffice Yes, it's just down the street and they were closed at 3pm.

  • 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.

  • jakeleopold Jake March-Jones (@jakeleopold) reported

    @PostOffice @RoyalMailHelp hello. I sent a parcel 8 days ago from the main post office in my town. It was a RM 1st class signed for. It’s still showing as “accepted at post office” I’ve been back there but the staff weren’t much help. Please could somebody try and help me?

  • valjohnson276 Val Johnson (@valjohnson276) reported

    @PostOffice posting a parcel at Prospect Lane Solihull Post Office at 4.25pm today and told they were getting the post ready for later so could not serve me! I asked So you are closed then? the reply was Yes. Why advertise a service till 5.30? Not everyone can drive to next one😡

  • NatalieLou40 🎫 Natalie 🎫 (@NatalieLou40) reported

    @siany_d @hugodrayton @PostOffice My problem is my local post office didn't explain that "signed for" is not the same as "special delivery". I asked for a next day registered service for my passport and wedding certificate, and now its lost with no tracking as they sold me a first class signed for service.

  • UlyssesReader Ulysses Reader (@UlyssesReader) reported

    Bed: ed. The King's own. Never see him dressed up as a fireman or a bobby. A mason, yes. He strolled out of the postoffice and turned to the right. Talk: as if that would mend matters.

  • joshdolan3 josh dolan (@joshdolan3) reported

    @PostOffice Can you make change available for the normal customer rather than for people with only business accounts
