  • PipRichardson Pip Richardson (@PipRichardson) reported from Southampton, England

    @PostOffice seriously can’t believe you are not allowed to lend pens out to customers because of #COVID__19 . #gooddeedforday just lent another customer my pen! She was so grateful ... #littiethings that matter !

  • KeithMitchell_ Keith Mitchell (@KeithMitchell_) reported from East Cowes, England

    Travelling need to redirect mail from a temporary address at end of redirecting period on line @PostOffice and @RoyalMail #CustomerService appalling can’t help me complete waste of time

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice I only jumped in to that thread as you were implying to the customer that it was possible to do such a thing when every counter clerk in the country will tell you the exact opposite. Unless, by postage labels, you meant buying postage labels online which would annoy all clerks.

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice He’s talking about online returns, not labels purchased from the Click & Drop service.

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @samrogersphotos @PostOffice Second class tracked is a service that doesn't exist, that's why. You have 2nd class signed for, which is not tracked but gives you confirmation of delivery. The other service that vaguely resembles your request is Tracked 48, which you cannot buy in a PO anyway.

  • rahim94 Rahim™ 🇬🇧🇲🇦 (@rahim94) reported from Southampton, England

    @_bowandarrows_ @PostOffice meh... I'm done with them. there's bigger issues atm as you've probably seen recently

  • Brynwales Bryn Jones🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈 (@Brynwales) reported from East Cowes, England

    @coldhardfacts7 @PostOffice @DVLAgovuk Richard I asked a question I didn't require abuse #idiot

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice The reality is that there is no service that guarantees delivery in 24 hours on Parcelforce International services. Even before the pandemic, such a vision is impossible. If you read Parcelforce's website, it says delivery is from the next working day, not delivered the next day.

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice @ellaloui_se Surely it depends on what the stated weight, actual weight and service used is? EG. If the parcel was 2nd class and both stated weight and actual weight were in the right price bracket (for example both under 2kg), would it actually matter as the price would be the same anyway?

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @RichieTheFruit @PostOffice I think the PO should clarify that statement a little bit more. They can accept Tracked 24/48 if they are returns to online retailers ie. Amazon, H&M etc. but it’s only the Tracked 24/48 that specifically comes from RM’s Click & Drop service which can’t be accepted at a PO.

  • DeadPigeonSoc The Dead Pigeon Society) (@DeadPigeonSoc) reported from Fareham, England

    @UBn9ohogz0XOFWP @PostOffice Totally agree!! Seriously bad and ill thought out advertising tactics from the Post Office! 😡

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice @marcball90 If it's a Royal Mail service, the max compensation is £250. For certain Parcelforce services, it can go up to £2500 but be prepared for a hefty price tag.

  • JulesFM Jules Field (@JulesFM) reported from Southampton, England

    @PostOffice They still show as an option, but when you select that particular one it then fails to appear as where you want it delivered to. Not just me, happens to others too. Other POs seem fine (e.g. Portswood down the road).

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @wweLovatic4ever @PostOffice Sounds like a scam. Royal Mail would never ask you to pay £1.99 for redelivery. They would have left a card if there was a parcel that couldn't be delivered.

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @_EmmaBeswick @PostOffice I may be able to help you out. A tracking no. would only be available on International Tracked & Signed or International Tracked services. Usually the tracking no. would start with RN or LB or similar. The French courier would be La Poste.

  • JulesFM Jules Field (@JulesFM) reported from Southampton, England

    @PostOffice After Amzn repeatedly sending stock responses teaching me how to use pickup locations, I finally got their "the customer is well pissed off" stock response, which asked me to call them. I've explained in words of 1 syllable & they are going to look into it. Will let you know!

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice You sure about that? Seeing as I work in a PO that also does the Check & Send service. The help pages on Horizon, combined with the training workbook and the booklet supplied with the form directly contradicts your statement. Even when renewing online, they still ask for photos.

  • Philip471 Philip Woods (@Philip471) reported from Shanklin, England

    @PostOffice No problem. Adding to my earlier point, the last posting date for surface to USA/Canada was more than 2 weeks ago. If the customer wanted to send Xmas cards that way, it wouldn't have got there until after Xmas/January. May be worth bearing in mind before talking to that branch.

  • ShellLovesCats Shell. Ice Skating Is The Best (@ShellLovesCats) reported from Lymington, England

    @PostOffice is there a known issue with post office broadband? Went down half hr ago, comes back briefly few mins at most with weak signal then gone again

  • siany_d Siân Davis (@siany_d) reported

    @GaganMich @PostOffice So because the quality newspaper you rwad didnt print the release date and you are unable to visit the royal mail website (the people who are responsible for new stamp issues) you decided to go into a branch AND come on social media being an abusive jerk?

  • princeofzumundi WNJ 🇿🇼 (@princeofzumundi) reported

    I never used to throw away @PostOffice receipts but you HAVE to keep those mf because they have the shortest service known to man

  • omgitsocreative 'Oh, my God, it's so creative!' (It isn't.) (@omgitsocreative) reported

    @TheMendozaWoman But the swap from poor FedEx guy coming on bike through freezing blizzard to pick up an envelope, to going themselves to the PostOffice and struggling with Royal Mail self-check machine as it is an effort to reprogram HAL-9000...

  • HK40596272 TechKnow (@HK40596272) reported

    @UIDAI Do any rules or guidance to authorized banks to issue tokens in 15 numbers for any kind of aadhar services? If no such rules for banks why not bar those banks /postoffice from providing so-called aadhar services? These services are more harassment for people?

  • siany_d Siân Davis (@siany_d) reported

    @jackglanville @PostOffice Yes the post office do offer a guaranteed next day service called special delivery on behalf of royal mail. The post office have nothing to do with the transit or delivery of mail. I feel for you i really do but the fact remains that t24 isnt a guaranteed service.

  • gillditch55 Gill Ditch 💙💙👩🏻‍🎓👩🏻‍🎓😷😷😷 (@gillditch55) reported

    @PostOffice - Is there an issue with delivery in #Brighton area 😬 I expecting important docs & had no post this week at all ?

  • red666s Dave Wood (@red666s) reported

    @PostOffice WOW - Cannot get over how bad your customer service is for home insurance. You cant even match YOUR OWN quote for a renewal!!

  • KateJon41196503 Kate the Plate (@KateJon41196503) reported

    @SteveDPIves @PostOffice That might add 24 hours to clearing but it’s what’s inside the envelope that the banks use. As long as cheque is ok & all the bank deets are written on the back or there’s a deposit slip, there shouldn’t be an issue. Have found Santander & Barclays to be the slowest tho’! 🤞

  • jackglanville Jack Glanville (@jackglanville) reported

    @siany_d @PostOffice It was a returns envelope provided by a fit to fly PCR company. Guaranteed or not it is called track 24 and the results of the test are time dependent in order to fly so they have a duty to provide the service stated. Not more than double the time! surely that is unacceptable?

  • markchild7 mark child (@markchild7) reported

    @blockthecoup @Life_Disrupted @PostOffice I sent a 60pound test to boots testing centre last Monday and have never heard anymore
