  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

    @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!

  • 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

  • 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

  • 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" 🤣

  • 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!

  • 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!

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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 !

  • 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?

  • 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

  • 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......

  • 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

  • Fisher_Craft FisherCraft (@Fisher_Craft) reported

    @PostOffice Huh? it's Royal Mail who tagged and dragged you in to this, I didn't as my issue wasn't with the Post Office as I no longer use your branches.

  • RoyalMailHelp Royal Mail Help (@RoyalMailHelp) reported

    @Fisher_Craft Hi, all Click & Drop items (apart from Tracked 24/48 ones) should be accepted by your local @PostOffice branch. You would need to contact them with regard to the service you have received in branch as we are separate companies. With regard to your claim can you please send...

  • pkjuit Puneet (@pkjuit) reported

    @IndiaPostOffice @PMOIndia Dear post office, Please teach some manners to your post office clerks on how to behave with citizens when they come to post office for postal service. I faced rude behaviour by one of your clerks in Jhotwata, jaipur post office. Postoffice.- 302012

  • d_rasdale Damien (@d_rasdale) reported

    @LeccSalva @RoyalMail @PostOffice Couldn't agree more, RM aren't fit for purpose & completely useless at customer service. The most convoluted claims process which is so nightmarish, almost like they designed it to put people off. Literally don't care they've lost your package.. all you get is a big '**** you'

  • NPhilatelics NorvicPhilatelics - news of GB stamps; shop & blog (@NPhilatelics) reported

    @PostOffice How many of these at different locations count towards the 11,500 branches “in the network”? Some are only ‘open’ 2 hours a week.

  • FrankHo84236400 Frank Holden (@FrankHo84236400) reported

    @mellie0509 @secretchances54 I am a small business. Don’t tell me what I prefer. PostOffice? Where? The money still has to be personally counted, checked verified and transported by someone DURING the hours that these organisations are open. They are ALL closed by the time I finish trading. Idiot.

  • Wahabning Lara Wahab (@Wahabning) reported

    What is it with the @PostOffice and people literally queuing up my backside. If they got any closer they would be breathing in my ****.

  • LeccSalva Salva (@LeccSalva) reported

    @d_rasdale @RoyalMail @PostOffice It's sad. Will never use their service anymore

  • madeinbrum1 madeinbrum1 (@madeinbrum1) reported

    @PostOffice @Royalmail main branch in 2nd biggest city in the country and total time drain. All 11 self service tills are closed because you 'don't have the staff' If I ran my small business like that i'd be bankrupt.

  • GaryBooclay Gary Buckley 🐝👩‍🚀🇬🇧 (@GaryBooclay) reported

    @PostOffice Could you ask the technical team please? The more you dig into this, the bigger the problem sounds. Reports of 900 printers broken. Printers are 7 years obsolete. Post offices being left in the dark is not good for customer experience? Do us small business need to look elsewhere?
