@PostOffice I spoke to The staff at WH Smith where the post office is located & they were surprised when they closed at 1. I then went to the Royal Mail depot to see if they could help & they weren’t even aware that it had closed at 1, as far as they knew it was still open

@johnredwood @YvetteHenson 1/2 And why did the #PostOffice & #Fujitsu ignore &/or hide the fact that there were significant problems with said it system, preferring instead to shift the blame onto totally innocent people ? At least one of whom was told not to mention the system in legal/proceedings/Court !

@joshjay1969 @RoyalMail You might want to tag @PostOffice as @RoyalMail is a different company... "my golf just broke down... damn you vauxhall" 🤣

@PostOffice Thank you. I have worked for a PO, I used to run one in the 90s. . I am also trained in Customer care. There is nothing wrong with chatting at work. But the customer comes first. You don't chat to another colleague, about something irrelevant whilst serving. Thank you.

The new Camberley @PostOffice rules of only being allowed to use self service machines surely will cause some difficulties for some members of the community

@PostOffice I would also like to point out. The staff really should make people aware of this. The assistant (female) not the older lady, is rude too. I don't live here but my daughter in law does, and assistant is always rude.

@leckston Admittedly it's not the business itself that's causing rhe disruption to mail services but I agree that #RoyalMail & it's #PostOffice arm haven't really acted like the official mail service for many a year. Maybe it is time the lost the 'Royal' prefix status. @10DowningStreet

Omg I do a manifest every time and my parcels never get processed or processed incorrectly and then I’m left in a state wondering where the rest are until I can contact the PO again.. I even highlight on the manifest @PostOffice what happens if a sack of parcels goes missing?

@PostOffice Took some old notes to local main Post Office to be told you no longer exchange them, or allow them to be paid into bank account. No wonder Post offices are closing all the time. No longer offering a service to the community.

@WHSmith @PostOffice I am at the @PostOffice now trying to work out what is going on. Kudos for responding. They say they can’t help in any way.

So @parcelforce say they can’t do anything because I handed my parcel in @PostOffice who subsequently incorrectly gave it to @RoyalMail. In fact the only team who seem to give a damn are @WHSmith where the @PostOffice are located!

@PostOffice Absolutely appalling customer service, IN Didcot PO today. The one inside Whsmith. .. Serving me and discussing the Christmas Party they can't, have with colleague! Always time for this after but not during service. Customers come first. 😱. #postoffice

Thanks very much Roger Gale of the @PostOffice - great business acumen. How pleased he must be with himself for getting rid of well known staff, a decent post office and a decent service to replace it with bargain basement b.s. of a "post office" with nowhere to pick up parcels!

Seems the masks will be sent with DHL ... I just hope a neighbour is home as I will be in the office on Monday and cannot pick them up at the postoffice on Tuesday as they are closed in the afternoons ... But well, in worst case I wear an FFP2 ... better than nothing.

@PostOffice We were queuing for about 20 mins, which when all you want to do is send a return which is scanning a barcode and getting a receipt is a bit excessive… self service we could’ve been in and out in 1 min. Efficiencies are possible for sure!

(@Giffendulum) reported
@PostOffice Okay thanks, I put in my details, but luckily not my bank details because I've never been charged for a redelivery, plus they normally leave it in the hidden place or like you say a royal mail card. Thought it was a bit dodge!

@EarMuffs10 @PostOffice Yeah I was going to use my passport photo and the online service but it expired at the beginning of the pandemic. Post Office was next option but they have issues but the website makes it seem like it's fine. Wasted trip. Now it's the paper route...

Thanks for the heads up @PostOffice we need to top up our travel cards in order to check out of our hotel but your app is down for maintenance until 5pm...maybe a pre warning should've been used. Won't be using this card again.

Terrible service from the @PostOffice . Checked online on 'Branch Finder' for places that renew driving licences. Local offices don't do them. Got to one after a 16 mile trip and they aren't actually doing them as they're waiting for new backdrops! Update the website!

This is so distressing. Decent, honest, public-service oriented folk, appallingly treated and for far too long. Lives compromised by arrogance and #PostOffice senior managers unwilling to investigate their own systems. #BBC1 #thepostofficescandal
