While shopping in Stretford, I decided to call in the "Mall" as I had a few things to post and…read moreneeded a proof of postage. This store is located inside the WHsmith, so if you are not from the area and just come in looking for a post office, it can be quite tricky to find. This post office is a good size, located in a large WHsmith store, it never seems to get too busy and it does have a post box in, just in case you need to post something and want to avoid the queues, which honestly are not that bad. It is traditional Post Office decor, and does sell envelopes etc, from the WHsmith and Post Office brand. The staff seem okay here, they didn't seem to be too great but still they could of been a lot worse, and did get my items posted with a proof of postage in a relatively quick fashion. For the future, moving the Post Office into its own store might make it seem, more professional, easier to find and simply a lot quicker to go in and out, rather than going right to the bottom of a WHsmith store. I give 3 stars as it is quite a nice post office and queuing doesn't seem too be so bad, especially for the city centre of a small town.

I went in there to post a package to Germany. For some reason the man behind the counter found this fact hilarious and proceeded to talk to his colleague in his native language for a good couple of minutes whilst gesturing at me. The staff seemed more focussed on selling the disco balls and ghastly home decorations and assorted electrical goods available in their 'shop' which took over half the post office than they did in serving customers. Goodbye and good riddance lousy old post office. Hello and welcome to new posh post office complete with electronic 'cashier number three pleeeease' system, friendly and efficient staff and a small shop which sells useful things such as jiffy bags and sellotape. Just how a post office should be. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't make a special trip to this post office if it wasn't just at the end of my road, but it is soooo much better than the old post office.

Sadly this no longer exists. It was closed recently shame as it was a good little post office and…read morehandy for loads of elderly people.
