    @CWUPostmasters @PostOffice @NFSP_UK Thanks for raising the issue but no I didn't consult with @NFSP_UK before announcing the independent review but having had a scheduled meeting with them this week, clearly it was an important topic of conversation

  • trav_al Also (@trav_al) reported from St Albans, England

    @PostOffice Oh I know that number by heart. Would've replied sooner, but it's gone down. Again. So didn't see the tweet.

  • artworker18 artworker (@artworker18) reported from Tottenham, England

    Debt to the #postoffice, which closes at 6pm. Shutters are half down, door being locked, at 5.40pm. Now I’ve got to lug a bunch of parcels round the pub with me…

  • davidmoritz David Moritz (@davidmoritz) reported from Harpenden, England

    @PostOffice what is wrong with the Harpenden Post Office. Total lack of staff and slow slow slow. No one is in any rush. Always a queue of at least 8 people. Oh and the self serve machines have been out for days

  • Karishamgrover Karishma Grover (@Karishamgrover) reported from Chalfont Saint Peter, England

    @PostOffice Please do because this isn’t the first time this has happened like I said. It’s becoming a regular problem in Chalfont St Peter. The staff member ‘Quereshi’ at the window is ridiculously slow, even though customers have told him and he can see a queue, he really isn’t bothered.

  • 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.

  • PostieMcPost PostyMcPostface (@PostieMcPost) reported

    @umist0966 @PostOffice Post Office don’t make the Rules on posting. That’s done by the CAA who decide on Dangerous goods etc and then pass it down to Royal Mail. Hence why PO ask what’s inside Parcels. RM can destroy dangerous goods parcels and have done many times in the last. Letters however….

  • nmartinlumos natasha rajeev (@nmartinlumos) reported

    Went to the Sangli PostOffice a few days ago and saw the new token system for getting your letters/articles posted. Appreciate @IndiaPostOffice efforts but also please appoint someone to help customers. I had to help a dozen people out after figuring it out myself.

  • saj__azim Saj Azim Jimmy ساجد عظيم (@saj__azim) reported

  • KateJon41196503 Kate the Plate (@KateJon41196503) reported

    @PostOffice @NewPOGuy Many of us have raised this issue internally. However, we want to let our customers know that we are doing our best for them, in sometimes difficult situations,& that we, in PO’s really appreciate their support. &How else do we let customers know that RM are taking our customers.

  • Tropicana101x D Λ V Ξ ☘️ 💉🖖 💙 (@Tropicana101x) reported

    @StarlingBank @UnknownZhao I have the same issue as well. The @PostOffice card keypad says “Declined” every time I tried to deposit cash.

  • thornton_mindy Mindy Thornton (@thornton_mindy) reported

    @PostOffice unhelpful and rude service for the second time by the same lady in the Chester branch. How do I complain?
