-
Tim McCormack (@Jusmasel2015) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@dolphinpcb @PostOffice Peter. Their remains so much inference from the name of the log file they still use. The Known Errors Log which logically implies there are errors they don't know about yet. These unknown errors are now the default reason for losses until POL can prove otherwise.

Robin Cathcart (@SenoraEco) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@PostOffice @scanx4 Before I could say 'oh and I need to pay for the envelope too,' the guy at the front till started accusing me of stealing the bag and made a great show of publicly admonishing me! It was HORRIBLE and a shame that I now feel unable to go into my local post office.

elaine lee (@the3lees) reported from Roslin, Scotland@PostOffice Thanks. Rumours rife that this is part of longer term local closure strategy. This would be at odds with our village doubling households over next 3 years. Footnotes to letter support this view. Please advise

Lynn (@lynnpolkey) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@PostOffice Waverley Mall PO - counter staff lovely. Member of staff dealing with ‘self-service’ tills, curt and unhelpful - perhaps a different position in the branch would be better for them?

Laura Nelson (@lauranels) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@PostOffice Thanks Ryan, I phoned the customer services number, great effort from the tech support person to help sort it out (think his name was Fraser). My broadband is still very patchy and dropping out sometimes, but hopefully will improve soon.

Strutt74 (@Strutty74) reported from Edinburgh, ScotlandAnyone complaining about the @PostOffice customer service clearly haven’t been served by Graeme at Asda post office at the Jewel Edinburgh .He just restored my faith in humanity. Couldn’t have been more helpful 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

CM (@cass4edinburgh) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@RoyalMailHelp @PostOffice It’s your website I booked the redelivery on! That’s a key issue here. And I have, believe me.

Christopher Ferry (@Chris_ESF) reported from Ratho, ScotlandIt's deeply concerning if @PostmanPat is the best the postal service has to offer on the frontline but having watched the 'Blue Flash' episode I realise that his laissez faire attitude extends to managers&those working behind the scenes. No wonder they're unprofitable #postoffice

Robin Cathcart (@SenoraEco) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@PostOffice @scanx4 I too have had a horrible experience at the Davidsons Mains PO that has made me feel unable to use this branch. After buying/using a mailing bag whilst in a busy Christmas queue this year. I finally got to the till and said the package was headed I internationally.

GM🏴 (@gm_glendamac59) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@PostOffice do post offices not have to be open as essential service? Local one to close from 1-9 January ‘22!

Shell Bryson (@shellbryson) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@Raphaelite_Girl @PostOffice @edinhelp I would not have a problem with that, surprisingly enough 😃

Andrew Ducker (@andrewducker) reported from Edinburgh, Scotland@PostOffice Particularly at this time of year having to get to a post office, buy packing materials and boxes, take them home, pack things, and bring them back to post them is a pain. If you had experts in your larger units to wrap and pack I'd pay for the service!

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!.

Adimaibole Waqainabete (@adimaibole) reported@lily_lna @PostOffice Was this Post Office in the Middle East? If so, I imagine there are dress codes expected in areas of public service.

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.

charlotte. (@berrycakes) reported@lily_lna @PostOffice I get that some people fetishise backs. But they also fetishise toes. Should we say ‘don’t come in wearing flip flops.’ No, because that’s dumb. Just like this. This dress wasn’t inappropriate. Anyone thinking it is seriously needs to consider that they in fact are the problem.

Colin B (@Gwapple13) reported@therapeoftheuk @PostOffice How ******** does that stay in place? Is he on hormones (***** moans) of some sort or is it down onto his left hip?
-
Varchasanraj V Patel (@VarchasPatel) reported@brianwhelton @PostOffice I can't help but agree. For example, why was Julia Marwood summoned back (after retirement) to help with the collection of evidence for the Inquiry given she knew of the "Receipts & Mismatch Bug" and rendered my father for prosecution. Criminals help each other.

GirlScout27 (@GirlScout27) reported@Irmenberga @lily_lna @PostOffice I've worked in pubs where we've refused service to men in shorts and no shirt. This is common practice and absolutely nothing to do with religion. I support the principle that business owners can refuse service, and they legally can.
