    @leebbailey @PostOffice Biggest problem is that they have their own investigative/prosecution team. There are no checks and balances. The police/cps way isn’t perfect but I’d like to think they’d have worked out that 700+ people aren’t all ripping them off using exact same methods!

    @RogerPlater @PostOffice It's an ID verification check for my Uni course. Basically the website says you can get it done at any post office and I've been to a small one and a large one and no one can help.

    @PostOffice Hi Jess - I'm through the queue now though it took a decent while, about 20 mins' wait I think so not unbearable. Credit to the staff who remained cheery and efficient throughout; seems the self service POS were down, which explains the extra queue-y queue! Thanks for responding.

    @PostOffice @RoyalMailHelp Many Thanks - have tweeted as customer services weren't too bothered or concerned when we raised the issue yesterday.

    @PostOffice Hi Tom, there was a queue but the problem is only having one post office for the whole of Cardiff city centre.1000’s of workers with only an hour max for lunch, my office is at least 15 min walk away, 3/4 of break spent trying to post a parcel!!!

    @PostOffice please can we speak to a human. We have a recorded delivery item that has gone missing. We have been though the automated system and checked on line which says the item is being returned to sender. But it hasn’t. We have been on hold for 26 minutes. Please help.

    I am actually sick to death of the service offered by @PostOffice I've been to 2 branches now and neither of them can help. And frankly don't know where I can get help.

    AT 93 BETTY BROWN IS STILL FIGHTING Betty Brown just turned 93 and picked up an OBE from King Charles at Windsor Castle. Lovely photo. Lovely medal on a lovely jacket. What she still does not have, six months after settling her claim, is a single penny of the compensation she was promised. Betty and her late husband Oswall ran the Annfield Plain Post Office in County Durham from 1985 to 2003. The Horizon accounting system built by Fujitsu @fujitsu_uk told them money was missing from their branch. It was not missing. It was never missing. They spent around 100,000 pounds of their own savings covering shortfalls that did not exist, because that is apparently the correct response when a computer accuses you and nobody in charge believes the human standing in front of it. She is thought to be the oldest surviving victim of the Horizon scandal. She was one of the original 555 claimants who backed Alan Bates in the group legal action against the Post Office @PostOffice. She reached a settlement through the government redress scheme at the end of last year. At her OBE investiture in June she said she still had not received a penny. Meanwhile Fujitsu, the company whose faulty software caused this entire catastrophe, has been criticised by a committee of MPs for contributing nothing financially toward the redress bill, which is running toward 2 billion pounds. The company that broke the till keeps its money. The 93 year old it falsely accused of stealing from that till gets a medal instead of a bank transfer. She dedicated her OBE to the sub-postmasters who never lived to see this day. She has said before that at least 13 people are believed to have taken their own lives because of what Horizon did to them. She said she wears the honour for them because she still feels everything they felt. She also had a message for the Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer, asking him directly to sort this out as quickly as he can. That is a simple sentence. It appears to be an extremely difficult instruction to follow. Britain does love turning its victims into heroes once the damage is done and the bill has gone unpaid long enough to be embarrassing. Medals are cheap. Redress schemes, it turns out, are somehow still cheaper for the people who actually owe the money.

    Read Artur Nadolny.👇 More Post Office incompetence.. “Castleton is now suing the @PostOffice and @fujitsu_uk for up to 8 million pounds, arguing the original 2007 judgment against him was obtained by fraud. In May 2026 the Court of Appeal ruled his case should be heard as one trial instead of being split into pieces designed to bury it in cost and delay. A small win. Nearly two decades late. He wanted a quieter life running a post office by the sea. Instead he became one of the clearest examples of what happens when an institution would rather bankrupt an innocent man than admit its software was broken.”

    Banked cash at @PostOffice and full amount not put into our @RBSBusiness account Now 2 weeks without my missing money, no correspondence & I told I can’t follow it up until next week. Cash flow is king and this policy doesn’t help businesses!

    @Geoff___Smith @PostOffice @RoyalMail Only once did I read an external consultants’ report and think wow, this makes real sense. Of course it was never implemented, just filed away and that consulting firm never got any more work from the company!
