My past two visits have been absolutely appalling.
On the first visit, I was told that the lady that works in the post office section left early, and that she is the only staff member that is authorised to do such transactions. And that was that.
I reluctantly returned today to turn be told by the same man that the lady takes her lunch between 1p-2pm.
I understand that people need to take breaks within the workplace, but the shocking thing is that they have no other staff in place to cover lady when she is on a break!
Fortunately I am able to get around fairly quickly - whether it be by car or on foot. However, I feel sorry for the elderly people that may walk or make that strenuous journey, just to be told that they will have to come back another time.
Also, not everyone has an hour or another time to come back in the day.
If this shop made it clear or communicated with signage or on a website that the post office is out of service between those hours, then it would prevent a lot of people's time being wasted.
So I thought I would do everyone who is considering coming to this shop a favour by saying avoid coming between 1 and 2 because you will not be served. Or maybe it's just best to not come at all, as the lady chooses to be available whenever she pleases.
Disappointing.
I went to the next and only window open only to be told by the gent he only does groceries and not post items!
I had to walk to the post office in Addiscombe adding forty five minutes onto the trip.
Why is this lady so unhelpful?
I've no idea if small post offices are franchises nowadays but surely its a business and a customer service?
Customer service does not exist at this location yet if you take the time to go to the Portland Road PO it is a pleasure and they value the custom.
Avoid this place at all cost. It will be better for your mental health.
Thank you
