  • annief1 Anne 🌻💙💛 (@annief1) reported from Didcot, England

    @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.

  • adric_warth Adric Warth (@adric_warth) reported from Didcot, England

    @PostOffice I feel really really let down & will be lodging a complaint. Please can you provide the phone number for you complaints department

  • Jennifer_Cowton Jennifer Cowton (@Jennifer_Cowton) reported from Bracknell, England

    @PostOffice no service in #bracknell #moneyexxhange now as lady is “on a break” eating her lunch at the desk #shockingservice

  • millennial_tom Tom Sargeant (@millennial_tom) reported from Reading, England

    @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.

  • smnthklly 𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑡ℎ𝑎 ⚜️ (@smnthklly) reported from Reading, England

    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?

  • annief1 Anne 🌻💙💛 (@annief1) reported from Didcot, England

    @PostOffice I posted a normal package 3rd December and its still not arrived. 😱. Apparently many have had a problem, with this date. So lady in Didcot / coop p/O said.

  • Munzhedzi_Muk Ngwaniwapo (@Munzhedzi_Muk) reported from Reading, England

    @LilywhiteSimon @PostOffice Damn. Thats disappointing, I think royal mail requires this invoice when claiming cos they know you aint getting it, ever.

  • tommyhozza tom horrox (@tommyhozza) reported from Finchampstead, England

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

  • lornypop Lorna Hicks (@lornypop) reported from Wokingham, England

    AVOID #BYFLEET #POSTOFFICE #rude #unproffesional #tradingstandards being informed!!

  • Neeknowsbest Kim (@Neeknowsbest) reported from Didcot, England

    @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.

  • annief1 Anne (@annief1) reported from Didcot, England

    @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

  • millennial_tom Tom Sargeant (@millennial_tom) reported from Reading, England

    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!

  • RockBoxRecords The Rock Box Record Store (@RockBoxRecords) reported from Camberley, England

    @101andyhibberd @PostOffice @farnhamherald To make you feel better Andy, same situation in Camberley today. Self services machine not working, 2 tills and 12 people in queue. Oh & one till then closed after serving 1 of 12 to cash up or something. 20 minutes later......

  • PeterBa82304711 Peter Baker, MA. 🇬🇧 🇮🇱 🇺🇦 #IranProtests2022 (@PeterBa82304711) reported from Reading, England

    @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

  • CamberleyDan Dan Adams (@CamberleyDan) reported from Camberley, England

    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

  • adric_warth Adric Warth (@adric_warth) reported from Didcot, England

    @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

  • millennial_tom Tom Sargeant (@millennial_tom) reported from Reading, England

    @Cremedevape @PostOffice @WHSmith @parcelforce @RoyalMailHelp Absolute comedy of errors going on here. I wouldn’t mind much, except this was a really important package to me!

  • annief1 Anne (@annief1) reported from Didcot, England

    @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.

  • PeterBa82304711 Peter Baker, MA. 🇬🇧 🇮🇱 #NUFC 'till I die ! (@PeterBa82304711) reported from Reading, England

    @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 !

  • FionaLegal Fiona Anderson (@FionaLegal) reported from Wokingham, England

    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!

Post Office Issues Reports

  • P29208743 P (@P29208743) reported

    @PostOffice @RoyalMailHelp They just said I need to contact you. So is anyone able to help because this is quite ridiculous.

  • 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.

  • ftse123 Shana (@ftse123) reported

    @PostOffice (2) She’s middle aged/white/blondish/hair in a bun/ wears glasses/ medium build. She once shouted at me to ‘get away from that door’ when I was just entering the branch! She never shouted at the others. Appalling service from an appalling person.

  • BlanketParsnip Vivian Viden (@BlanketParsnip) reported

    @PostOffice Contacted PO via email. Response was that it was a Royal Mail issue. I knew it WAS a PO issue & told the PO customer service this. As a professional company, what action are you going to take to stop this ridiculous practice at Atkyns Road PO? Check his reviews on Google too.

  • Suepersonic Susan Wilson (@Suepersonic) reported

    @BorisJohnson @PostOffice @ChrisPhilpMP live in Stoats Nest Road no post since Friday hearing lots of staff off sick can’t some people furloughed be vetted and help out. The bills are not going to be paid stuck at the Post Office

  • byhut Baba Yaga's Hut (@byhut) reported

    @se23ldn @WHSmith @PostOffice Really hope not! See huge queues at all local post offices Catford, Honor Oak etc. Be really bad to lose ours

  • 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

  • stephenheggie steve (@stephenheggie) reported

    @PostOffice self service in whsmith Guildford High Street a total pointless exercise, every time staff have to help, 3 people needed help whilst I was waiting for counter service, 1 out of 5 service points open,service desk a lot easier and better use of the member of staff

  • lenkaloser Never had a dream come true (@lenkaloser) reported

    @intrepidtom @PostOffice Three weeks ago I sent a package to a friend in italy, it still hasn't arrived. The post is slow due to ongoing factors such as COVID. Shut up.

  • muzzlehatch_ Benjamin Read (@muzzlehatch_) reported

    @PostOffice broadband we’ve bee customers for 4years but suddenly you increased charges by £10/pcm. Not sure why and phone lines seem to be broken for the past 2 evenings ... 😫 how can I speak to someone?
