New woman owner is so rude (constantly interrupts and impossible to finish a sentence -…read more#customerserviceFAIL!), doesn't know what she's doing (often seen her sending customers away - including myself - for not having a logo on a returns label/other ridiculous reasons ... no such problems at High Street branch/before this branch relocated), massively slow (she always looks confused!) - no urgency to anything even with huge queues ... today she defaced my parcel by scribbling all over my name & address without my permission. She said it would confuse the postmen (errr ... it said "FROM" on it) and then wanted to refuse to let me send it at all because the address label wasn't centred on the parcel! At Xmas she passes items back to customers and makes everyone put their own stamps on (hugely confusing, especially if sending numerous parcels to different countries) ... jobsworth and clearly a bit lacking in grey matter!

This P.O is run by a lovely couple. The Husband normally mans the shop solo but his Wife is around…read moreduring the weekends. They normally shut a little bit later than advertised which is always a god-send on a lazy saturday morning. They are also super accomodating - can't count how many times I have come out with either no adress or an incomplete address and he will always let me leave package and rush back home, even if I am there at the close of day. You can also pay money into your account, top up your mobile and send faxes. I had to send a fax to pruhealth on a freephone number once and he didn't charge me which I thought was nice. Officially, they are open until 5.30pm on weekdays and until 12.30 on Saturdays but you normally find them open until 1pm quite often. If there is a local P.O that deserves the custom and support, it is this one!

This is a good post office, because the staff are reliable and do their job properly and…read moreefficiently. I have used this post office many times and I can trust them to provide me with the correct service. There are usually two clerks available and of course there is usually a substantial queue on a Monday or during weekday lunchtimes, but that's true of all Post offices isn't it? The Post Office itself is located in a newsagents, so it can feel quite cramped when you are queuing there. I am not too bothered about this because this Post Office is in a convenient location for me.
