    @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 !

    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?

    @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!

  • CamberleyDan

    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.

    @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

  • 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......

    @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

    @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.

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

  • 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

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

  • 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!

  • 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.

    @DJCfandango @PostOffice @RoyalMail The problem is bud, you asking Post Office about this is akin to you complaining to Tesco because the peaches you had delivered by Sainsbury’s were mouldy. They’re completely separate companies.

  • scattyapril
    scattyapril (@scattyapril) reported

    @PostOffice very shocked with your member of staff yesterday. Suffer from very bad anxiety and your member of staff was rude and I was trying to close my Id so others couldn’t see she was more concerned with having to open the id up again

  • Cat_onabike
    Cowardly Lion (@Cat_onabike) reported

    @PostOffice I went on 5 different days to send 2 different parcels. No self service. 3 times I had to go home without posting anything because the queue was too long. I complained to PO cust svcs who thanked me for my queuing feedback. Are you stopping self-service in all branches?

  • Cryptocabby
    CJ (@Cryptocabby) reported

    @PostOffice absolute joke of a service, paid for deliveries-tracked and still gone missing-the last 2 times I was stupid enough to use the royal mail-unbelievable-supposed to be guaranteed-to many thieves working for them-dont use them folks-100% untrustworthy

  • Julian2017124
    julian (@Julian2017124) reported

    Unlike my experiences with @PostOffice and @WilliamHill who fought me every single step, refused to apologise, and never properly fixed their mistakes, at least Sky has shown a real difference. This highlights how some companies seem to think they’re above the law, above being challenged, and completely unaccountable for their actions and decisions. Importantly, it’s not about companies always giving in or admitting the customer is right every single time sometimes the customer can be wrong. But when the customer has clear evidence that proves their side of the story beyond reasonable doubt, it shouldn’t be difficult for a company to simply say: “Yes, we made a mistake here’s your full payout.” Take the £5.75 @WilliamHill owed/owes me but refused and still refusing to pay properly they should have just admitted the error and fixed it. Why do some companies struggle so much to be honest and say sorry when things go wrong? It doesn’t have to end in long adjudication processes or court battles. Disputes should be settled fairly and quickly through agreement, not turned into fights.

  • CGarboid
    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

  • greennbygreenn
    tolga tursun (@greennbygreenn) reported

    @PostOffice You are absolutely useless. Where is my mail that was supposed to arrive a month ago? I’ve paid the fee twice, and my post is still missing. You opened an investigation and then didn’t even bother to give me a response. Your service is a complete joke. What the hell

  • guysie4

    @PostOffice post office in TJ jones high st Ashford Kent, why is it the self service machines have been taped up for a long time, 3 staff members with a long queue 1 of the in the travel money office on her mobile phone. All I wanted was a stamp it’s a joke

  • redpenrog
    dodger (@redpenrog) reported

    Voters must have an inquiry into why Ed Davey did nothing as minister in charge of the Postoffice , whilst the numerous poor postoffice managers were being accused and in some cases charged . It was clear for someone close to the process, something was clearly wrong .

    @PostOffice @Kitty49499561 Post Office couldn’t care less about your complaint and most post offices are franchised anyway.
