    @PostOffice The reality is that there is no service that guarantees delivery in 24 hours on Parcelforce International services. Even before the pandemic, such a vision is impossible. If you read Parcelforce's website, it says delivery is from the next working day, not delivered the next day.

    @wweLovatic4ever @PostOffice Sounds like a scam. Royal Mail would never ask you to pay £1.99 for redelivery. They would have left a card if there was a parcel that couldn't be delivered.

    @PostOffice @marcball90 If it's a Royal Mail service, the max compensation is £250. For certain Parcelforce services, it can go up to £2500 but be prepared for a hefty price tag.

    @UBn9ohogz0XOFWP @PostOffice Totally agree!! Seriously bad and ill thought out advertising tactics from the Post Office! 😡

    @RichieTheFruit @PostOffice I think the PO should clarify that statement a little bit more. They can accept Tracked 24/48 if they are returns to online retailers ie. Amazon, H&M etc. but it’s only the Tracked 24/48 that specifically comes from RM’s Click & Drop service which can’t be accepted at a PO.

    @TDisposition @PostOffice Tip for today . Never laugh at your own jokes ps your blocked 🤡

    @_EmmaBeswick @PostOffice I may be able to help you out. A tracking no. would only be available on International Tracked & Signed or International Tracked services. Usually the tracking no. would start with RN or LB or similar. The French courier would be La Poste.

    @PostOffice No problem. Adding to my earlier point, the last posting date for surface to USA/Canada was more than 2 weeks ago. If the customer wanted to send Xmas cards that way, it wouldn't have got there until after Xmas/January. May be worth bearing in mind before talking to that branch.

  • Philip471
    Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @samrogersphotos @PostOffice Second class tracked is a service that doesn't exist, that's why. You have 2nd class signed for, which is not tracked but gives you confirmation of delivery. The other service that vaguely resembles your request is Tracked 48, which you cannot buy in a PO anyway.

  • Philip471
    Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice He’s talking about online returns, not labels purchased from the Click & Drop service.

  • Philip471
    Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice I only jumped in to that thread as you were implying to the customer that it was possible to do such a thing when every counter clerk in the country will tell you the exact opposite. Unless, by postage labels, you meant buying postage labels online which would annoy all clerks.

  • Philip471
    Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice @ellaloui_se Surely it depends on what the stated weight, actual weight and service used is? EG. If the parcel was 2nd class and both stated weight and actual weight were in the right price bracket (for example both under 2kg), would it actually matter as the price would be the same anyway?

  • Philip471
    Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice You sure about that? Seeing as I work in a PO that also does the Check & Send service. The help pages on Horizon, combined with the training workbook and the booklet supplied with the form directly contradicts your statement. Even when renewing online, they still ask for photos.

    @twasthentisnow @lily_lna @PostOffice It doesn't read like this at all, though perhaps you assumed she was an employee because the idea of a manager chiding a customer for this outfit so insane.

    @RLK303303 @PostOffice That's outrageous. Nothing will change if the issues aren't outlined as to why this happened & addressed publicly.

    @PostOffice, What a palluva, A new postie posted our letters into next door. The only trouble is nobody lives there. and important letters too. Your service is getting worse. only 2 deliveries a week, whereas we used to get daily. #NFG

    @GirlScout27 @lily_lna @PostOffice A customer is not obliged to have good manners, many MANY do not. The retailer IS obliged. That is our social order. Which is far more important than taste or manners

    @lily_lna @PostOffice They put a note on their own notice board while you were in the shop.. and then what ? Pointed at the sign and said ‘hey’ ? People will believe any crap at all these days
