Anthony Hesse (@PropPersonnel) reported from Egham, England@PostOffice Stephen, this was not a one off. The staff are very pleasant, just never enough of them. Since moved from the original stand alone site, the service has only gone backwards I'm afraid.
-
Dawn (@Dawnf1) reported from Hammersmith, England@PostOffice Yesterday I posted my old passport to the passport office having renewed online at home and the po counter person commented on it saying how great it was. I agree! But I'm glad you still do this for folk who aren't comfortable doing it online. Because the paper form is awful.

stupotpot 🏳️🌈🌹🏃🏻♂️ (@stupotpot) reported from Spelthorne District, England@Ezeetruth @PostOffice @DarkCarpet In my life and most gay peoples’ life, every day. But if you want examples of people receiving physical/verbal abuse for holding their boyfriend’s hand in public, go to google. Search in Twitter. It won’t take long - I’m not your damn researcher.

-
Christie Fidura (@cfidurauk) reported from Richmond, EnglandI was so excited about the @RoyalMail click & collect service. No more queuing at the @PostOffice! But, they failed to show yesterday. I’ve rebooked for today. Would feel better if they’d send me a range of times they’re likely to collect. This is very stressful! @RoyalMailHelp

James Vertigan (@jamesvertigan) reported from Ealing, England@PostOffice Queueing in Ealing Common W5 3NN branch just now, the lady serving was rather rude to a customer who was concerned about the length of time other customers were being made to wait in the queue as she was the only one serving at the counter. Not the sort of 1/2
-
Beth Maundrill (@GunshipGirl) reported from Ealing, EnglandI don't often send moany tweets but genuinely the @PostOffice in Ealing is the most depressing place. Always a massive queue and too few staff and just horrible atmosphere. Gross.

-
Maria Lam (@mariamaylam) reported from Kingston upon Thames, England@PostOffice Hi Courtney, thanks for getting back to me but it doesn't matter now. I then registered with my gmail account which worked. There must be a problem with hotmail accounts.
-
James Schulkes (@schulkes) reported from Hammersmith, England.@PostOffice please sort out your #Hammersmith store. Ridiculous queues every time we go, at least 20 mins each time, only 1 cashier on and the self service machines out of order. It’s been awful ever since it moved into @WHSmith

Xiled4truth (@xiled4trut20438) reported@ArturNadol7566 @PostOffice Isnt it funny how a lot of these post offices that had these issues appeared to be in the Midlands or North of England? Similarly the BMW E39 engine problems all seem to be clustered in the North also? They blamed it on the chemicals in fuel didnt affect rest of UK or Europe!.

PressWrecker (@MatthewWil995) reported@ArturNadol7566 @PostOffice Sickening. Never thought we’d all be in the iron grip of communist rule. Filthy communists.
-
Doherty J (@juliedoherty29) reported@ajthfc @PostOffice @lily_lna No I wasn’t but I did get the wrong end of the stick, so there is that. Anyway my bad.

Reel Buddy (@Daddyzoom) reported@lily_lna @PostOffice I read it as if you worked there then realised you were a customer. How strange those staff thought they can tell you what to wear. I can imagine who the staff are.

Alison Mac (@AlisonM39525362) reported@twasthentisnow @lily_lna @PostOffice She is a customer.

Artur Nadolny (@ArturNadol7566) reportedBINNED BY THE POST OFFICE Fiona Elliott and her husband bought the shop, post office and house in Clady, County Tyrone in 2005. Their plan was simple. Run it well, retire comfortably, leave something solid behind for the kids. Instead the Post Office (@PostOffice) handed them a computer that lied for a living. The Horizon system started throwing up discrepancies almost straight away. £20 here, £60 there, then more. Fiona kept plugging the gaps with her own money from the shop till, convinced she or her staff had made a mistake somewhere. She rang the helpline. She asked for an audit. Nobody came. So she did what any exhausted small business owner does when a multi billion pound state owned company won't lift a finger. She went searching through bins at night, checking if scratch cards or lottery slips explained the missing money. They never did. The money was never missing. In 2009 two auditors finally turned up. They spent a couple of hours going through the post office, then told her there was a £6,000 shortfall on the system and she needed to pay it right then or she'd be looking at a criminal offence. She asked how it had appeared. She'd been putting in hundreds of pounds a week for years and it had never shown up before. They told her it didn't matter, they wanted the £6,000 in cash right there and then. She didn't have that kind of money in the shop till, so she asked to run to the bank. Refused. The bank was shut for lunch and they weren't waiting around for it to reopen. She offered a cheque instead, the normal way she paid every supplier at the time. Refused again. Cash only. So she went and borrowed it off her brother, who ran the car business down the road, handed the cash straight over, and walked away without a receipt. Read that back. A state owned company sent two people to threaten a woman with a criminal charge over money that never actually went missing, refused a cheque, refused to wait an hour for the bank, took cash off her brother's business, and didn't even bother writing her a receipt. She paid. Of course she paid. Nobody wants to find out the hard way that Horizon's word beats theirs in a courtroom too. Rural post offices were being closed around then, so she took redundancy and rented the shop out. The new tenant hit the exact same phantom shortfalls. The bank repossessed the lot and sold it for £40,000. Fiona and her husband had paid £322,000 for it. The bank didn't stop there either, it went on to repossess the buy-to-let properties they owned as well. The building she once planned to retire on is boarded up now, sitting in the middle of the village like a monument nobody in charge wanted to admit they built. She testified to the Post Office Horizon IT Inquiry (@PostOffInquiry) in 2022. She is still fighting for compensation today, offered only 5% of what she believes she is owed, turned down on appeal three times, and pointed toward the Horizon Shortfall Scheme, which she says she has little faith in after wasting years on it already. Nobody stole a penny. The Post Office just needed someone to blame, and a rural shopkeeper searching her own bins at midnight was easier to accuse than a broken system built by Fujitsu (@fujitsu_uk) and defended for decades by executives who knew exactly what it was doing.

Phil Fuller (@PhilFul23) reported@TimmyR6ig @lily_lna @PostOffice If you don’t know you never will. This is why you didn’t know we don’t have a dress code in our post offices. What are you doing in the country? You clearly don’t like the indigenous people and culture. Is it just for free cash, health and housing?
-
Roger (@roger_boz) reported@lily_lna @PostOffice As a customer I’d say you are fine to wear this outfit, this is the UK after all and you see people wearing less in the street (I am including men in this) but if you were an employee then they may have a point. It would really depend on the company dress code.

RLK (@RLK303303) reportedAn update regarding the wearing of a backless dress on Post Office premises. Apparently the note has been taken down ‘for now’. Why would a backless dress make anyone feel uncomfortable? A bit of a non-response from @PostOffice - it doesn’t really answer any questions, nor does it make explicit, a stance on this.
