    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 !

    @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

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

    @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.

    @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!

  • 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......

    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

    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.

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

    @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 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.

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

  • 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

  • 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.

    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?

  • 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!

    @CaldicotTT @PostOffice Surely the problem is the banks closing down and not the post office that have taken on certain rolls that banks offered. Have a word

    Sianne Gordon-Wilson (@SianneGW) reported

    @BBCNews My passport renewal took 8 wks and my daughters took 13.5wk (arrived 1wk prior to travel) both through @PostOffice check and send service, only to discover that hers was not completed correctly after 10wks. I will never use this service again. My husband’s took 3wks online.

    @PostOffice local Post Office closed AGAIN. Do you vett who you franchise out to? It’s been crap for the last 2 years and not the staff in @SPARSW fault!

  • mcmelmel
    Melinda (@mcmelmel) reported

    @PostOffice had to do one of those official complaint forms online, the message came back that it can take time to resolve, pretty sure 2 months has passed. That’s seeming rather slow. Any other way I can get this dealt with please?

  • dominicshaw67
    Dom Shaw (@dominicshaw67) reported

    @PostOffice Anyone else unable to top up their Travel Money Card while on holiday at the moment? Not working on line or via the app. So anoying

    Just left crying Luton and Dunstable @PostOffice with how rude one of the workers was to me. Absolutely disgusting should not be working there.

    @CaldicotTT @PostOffice What’s wrong with you counting it ? Don’t see a problem here. Just a needless moan about a service that does it’s best.

    @DenzilWud @parcelforce @PostOffice I was hoping to use a local service!
