  • 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!

  • 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......

  • 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!

  • 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.

  • 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!

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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" 🤣

  • 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 !

  • 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?

  • 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

  • mariannet91 Marianne (@mariannet91) reported

    @RoyalMailHelp @PostOffice It would help if you could actually search for CSP on your website, rather than just being given a list of post boxes/branches

  • jonathangard Jon (@jonathangard) reported

    @Nishels @PostOffice Eh Post Office, don't take this crap off him. You do you beb.

  • Gleaners77 Leonard Waldner (@Gleaners77) reported

    @scott_perkin @PeaveyMart Put down street Postoffice is on than your number ex 40 park st instead of box 40

  • RoyalMailHelp Royal Mail Help (@RoyalMailHelp) reported

    @taliena We are a separate company to @PostOffice who you would need to contact about the service in branch. >Mayah

  • sickamps sickamps (@sickamps) reported

    @siany_d @PostOffice Not when I purchased using the business suite. It also doesn't explain why the royal mail customer service point hesitated to take the tracked items. It was made to fell like posting tracked items was putting them to great discomfort and 'not the usual way'

  • DJPAULETTE PAULETTE (@DJPAULETTE) reported

    @PostOffice Sending package of five miniature x 100c vodka in a presentation case. Told to break package down as only allowed three bottles per package despite limit being 2l. Repack 3x2 packages to be told it’s actually only 2 bottles per package allowed. Repack. Finally posted. Never again

  • Lindsey1acnh Lindsey (@Lindsey1acnh) reported

    @Karishamgrover @PostOffice You have a horrible attitude towards post office staff! With queues like this in the middle of a pandemic how often do you think the staff are able to even wash their hands? Post office staff are people not robots and the post offices are busier than ever, try being kind.

  • CarlKobus Carl Kobus (@CarlKobus) reported

    @PostofficeSa How can I renew my postbox online if the virtual Postoffice site is down? I can’t get to my nearest Postoffice.

  • Neddinator Bush Gordon (@Neddinator) reported

    @PostOffice Afternoon, I need to send a package back to someone, eBay have already provided me with a free shipping label, but I don’t have a printer. It does have a QR code on it though, Can anyone at the Post Office help me?.

  • Lindsey1acnh Lindsey (@Lindsey1acnh) reported

    @Karishamgrover @PostOffice You clearly don't know how the post office works love! But that's okay *** you've shown just how unkind and selfish you are you can laugh at my lack of punctuation but at least I don't treat retail staff like dirt xx
