  @PostOffice A kind lady has just delivered my post that was delivered to Modbury Gardens in Reading. I am in Torrington Road. My post regularly goes to Totnes Road and Axbridge Road and I normally eventually receive it. But what is wrong with you people? How much do I never get?

  @PostOffice - I have received an email from you regarding compensation owing to you not providing a service I paid through the nose for, which makes no sense and now no one is answering my queries. Case Number: 11802440. Please confirm when I am to receive the refund due.

  @HeadWarriorTWM Indont think these people should be exempt from trial when we get a different gov that takes these issue seriously - this is far worse than the postoffice scandal. I saw a 20 yo walk into my workplace with paniced mothers 6’6” boy with a pair of fake breasts.. no control all fear

  @PostOffice You will probably say this is the wrong one but I have filled in a form for you NOT to deliver flyers to my address and have a sticker on the mail box to say this and yet the post person STILL put some in my box this morning. Now either they cannot read or stupid🤬

  Only one window of 5 open. Customers standing, queuing for 25 minutes. @PostOffice Whoever you sold the Eccles Post Office franchise to, they prefer profit over customers. Privatisation of public services? Sold off to non-English humans. REALLY BAD IDEA. Check Thames Water

  Hello @PostOffice are you aware that literally nothing is working at your main Cambridge branch? The self service machines haven’t worked in weeks and now the ticket dispenser for the counter service doesn’t work. Any chance of getting stuff fixed?

  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.
