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.

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!
-
Fiona Anderson (@FionaLegal) reported from Wokingham, EnglandThanks 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!
-
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

Dan Adams (@CamberleyDan) reported from Camberley, EnglandThe new Camberley @PostOffice rules of only being allowed to use self service machines surely will cause some difficulties for some members of the community

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

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
-
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.

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.

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.

𝑠𝑎𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑡ℎ𝑎 ⚜️ (@smnthklly) reported from Reading, EnglandOmg 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?

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 !
-
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.
-
Tom Sargeant (@millennial_tom) reported from Reading, EnglandSo @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!

Paul Onky (@CGarboid) reported@PostOffice Yes, you can upgrade a Freepost item to "Signed For" (recorded delivery) by taking it to a Post Office counter and paying the additional fee. While the recipient usually pays for Freepost, you pay to upgrade the service for extra tracking paying only for the recorded service upg

-
Natasha Hings (@NatashaHings) reportedImagine walking to a @PostOffice and wanting to buy an envelope because you don’t have any at home, and there are no shops nearby; to be told they don’t have any. Not only this, but to be repeatedly met with resistant, rude and unhelpful ‘customer service’.
-
GaneShevate (@GaneShevate7) reported@IPPBOnline After opening android application on phone there is nothing on screen. This is very irritating such things should not happen. We as consumer expect application must in service all the time. I dont know why this is happening when we need to do transactions. #PostOffice

Simply Reddington (@MBullshitty) reported@PostOffice How can I send a birthday card containing a £30 gift card without it being stolen AGAIN? It's £3 to send 2nd class securely with cover for only £20. I'm just sick of your pathetic service. Maybe if you stopped taking money to deliver the river of advert **** may help

my name is... (@madjack5774) reported@RepMaryMiller If your office provide same "help" as local township office offer or postoffice offer than what is the difference? Just curious? One can get pp in 2 weeks after applying at USPS and pay expedite fee... unless your office is making this happen without any fee. Just wondering.
