    @DVLAgovuk With regard to all the negative media coverage about slow service at DVLA. I went to the @PostOffice last Monday to send off my driving licence for renewal. I got it back yesterday! Great service. #nocompaint

    @Samanthaoshea2 @PostOffice I was having the same problem until I meet @dovacracks001 on IG who helped me I had to recommend him

  • Sultanana21 Sultanana (@Sultanana21) reported

    @PostOffice I've contacted your business team to open an account (send 30/week) however I've received the same introductory call for the past year. I'm beginning to think you don't actually want more business. Can anyone actually help?

  • sarahmhutchison Sarah Hutchison (@sarahmhutchison) reported

    @PostOffice I had to go through the queue twice because I had put string on my parcel and had to buy tape from the shop - the counter staff couldn’t help me with that. I know I was there for 40 minutes. Please answer my question.

  • LilywhiteSimon Simon (@LilywhiteSimon) reported

    @lisajon60648359 @RoyalMail What service did you purchase Lisa? If it was Tracked 24 or Tracked 48 it can’t be taken to a @PostOffice, otherwise they should have accepted it whatever size the branch was.

  • kikiitheartist kikiitheartist (@kikiitheartist) reported

    @PostOffice Hey, tweeted asking for some guidance regarding IOSS after local staff were utterly clueless - You asked which branch, then didn't offer any advice or respond further. Please help! I need to send this Etsy package to Germany, pronto!

  • Samanthaoshea2 Samantha o'shea (@Samanthaoshea2) reported

    @PostOffice my drop and go account has been used in a complete different county, no number to contact in regards to this. How can I get help?

  • SaraAbundance Abi Jones (@SaraAbundance) reported

    @PostOffice Ridiculous that a recorded 1st class delivery is taking 1 week to reach within the same borough? How is this service?

  • pgallivan87 Philip Gallivan (@pgallivan87) reported

    @PostOffice are queues meant to take an hour? 4 staff manning “self service”, line 30 long and 1 actual cashier … #nottingham #victoriacentre
