Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Portsmouth and nearby locations:

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

    @_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.

  • 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.

  • Brynwales Bryn Jones🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@Brynwales) reported from East Cowes, England

    @coldhardfacts7 @PostOffice @DVLAgovuk Richard I asked a question I didn't require abuse #idiot

  • PipRichardson Pip Richardson (@PipRichardson) reported from Southampton, England

    @PostOffice seriously can’t believe you are not allowed to lend pens out to customers because of #COVID__19 . #gooddeedforday just lent another customer my pen! She was so grateful ... #littiethings that matter !

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

    @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.

  • 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?

  • JulesFM Jules Field (@JulesFM) reported from Southampton, England

    @PostOffice After Amzn repeatedly sending stock responses teaching me how to use pickup locations, I finally got their "the customer is well pissed off" stock response, which asked me to call them. I've explained in words of 1 syllable & they are going to look into it. Will let you know!

  • 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 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

    @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.

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

    @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.

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

    @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.

  • Rangers_Bognor Rangers@Bognor (@Rangers_Bognor) reported from East Wittering, England

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

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

    @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

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

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    @_bowandarrows_ @PostOffice meh... I'm done with them. there's bigger issues atm as you've probably seen recently

  • DeadPigeonSoc The Dead Pigeon Society) (@DeadPigeonSoc) reported from Fareham, England

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

  • KeithMitchell_ Keith Mitchell (@KeithMitchell_) reported from East Cowes, England

    Travelling need to redirect mail from a temporary address at end of redirecting period on line @PostOffice and @RoyalMail #CustomerService appalling can’t help me complete waste of time

  • JulesFM Jules Field (@JulesFM) reported from Southampton, England

    @PostOffice They still show as an option, but when you select that particular one it then fails to appear as where you want it delivered to. Not just me, happens to others too. Other POs seem fine (e.g. Portswood down the road).

  • SAbleitinger Susanne Ableitinger (@SAbleitinger) reported

    @nomkhitamona when is the SA Postoffice giving us the service we paid for? When are our postboxes going to be reinstated to the parking lot at Checkers Hyper 14th Ave Roodepoort? We have not received any post since Feb this year, but paid for a whole year service

  • tiatto1 Phil (@tiatto1) reported

    @PostOffice what does 1st class actually mean? Something sent on Monday and still not arrived and it’s THURSDAY? Are you on strike too? Pathetic service!

  • chrish9070 Christopher Head (@chrish9070) reported

    @RupaHuq Rupa it all boils down to @PostOffice branches are mostly unviable. They rely on the subsidy of the retail business that it sits inside & reality is selling other products give a better ROI and margins. Being responsible for thousands £’s, compliance & balancing. Most PO’s do

  • dhartEsq David J. Hart (@dhartEsq) reported

    Never going to the #postoffice again because i don’t need to mail anything.

  • G_Clyde_Taylor Gerwyn Taylor (@G_Clyde_Taylor) reported

    @WayneDavid_MP @BBCWalesNews @PostOffice Continued proof the system doesn't work - 13 weeks in, 2 visits to attempt to miss out the "sent to print" lottery to be told application was approved on Friday - surely information which could have been passed on Friday's call or Saturday's visit.

  • carlbos Carl Boswell (@carlbos) reported

    @PostOffice Only 1 and 1 member of staff looking after the self service and doing passports. All the self service points needed assistance and waited 30-40 mins to get any. It’s the only post office in the town centre and it’s a very big town!

  • PIErwinaaa P I Ewrin (@PIErwinaaa) reported

    @RyanMarino @DrJenGunter Yes. Back Alley is now telephone and postoffice. Coat hangar is misoprostal. All handled within your own home, tho privacy may still be a problem considering electronic surveillance tools.

  • ChrisNe4 Chris Neve (@ChrisNe4) reported

    @NPhilatelics @PostOffice @RoyalMail Reply from Royal Mail to complaint : "Whilst we understand that this may make some stamps unsuitable for philatelic purposes and deeply regret any disappointment we may have caused; the prime focus of the business must be on protecting our revenue" What loss of revenue !

  • seeCFC Christine F Chumley✍🏻 (@seeCFC) reported

    @marceelias What laws can Congress pass to help? Can they make every postoffice a legal place to register to vote? Require postoffices be open frm 6am to 11:59pm for 4wks before closing of registration for any race for ppl to register? Make them a legal place to vote any race w same hrs?

  • samanthaaaxx91 Samantha🌻 (@samanthaaaxx91) reported

    @PostOffice I’ve bought travel insurance with you - at the time I was 30, I’m now 31, the policy documents state im 30? Is that going to be a problem? I only entered my DOB not my specific age.
