Contacting the very elderly with appointments for vaccination isn't as easy as may be supposed. Some people are very nervous (because we're awash in alarm) & it might be hard to know they got the details down okay. Whereas a letter is customary, reliable. #RoyalMail #TalkRADIO

I hope Royal Mail distribution/ depo and head office burn down. I hope their shares plummet. I also hope they go bankrupt. They’ve been epitome of trash for years and it’s finally enough.

@RoyalMailHelp This appears to be an IT/website glitch so there is no FAQ solution to help. Ideally I need to chat with an IT help desk. I suspect it’s not just me who has the issue.

@PlayStationUK @AskPS_UK your customer service is truly shocking!!! I've had a faulty controller since I unboxed it, sent it back to yourselves to fix/replace only to have an email to say you haven't received it... sort it out! Because Royal Mail tracking says it's been delivered

@RoyalMailHelp Hi Luke, I’m not having a problem tracking. Your website offers the facility to save tracked items but it doesn’t work. Can you please help as this would be an invaluable facility for tracking many packages.

@RoyalMailHelp I have no issue with it Being left with a neighbour. I have an issue of it being delivered so far away. My parcels are delivered to work and that is open 24/7 so there is always someone in. Our road has 4 postcodes and it was actually delivered to a house with a different one....

Day 3 of trying to contact @RoyalMailHelp by phone to track down a special delivery package they collected (but say they didn't), then didn't deliver. 60 mins + on hold each time - then if your call gets answered, they hang up unexpectedly while popping you on hold to check!

Paid for two postage labels, but couldn't post them because Spain and Ireland were refusing post. so I requested a refund but it's been refused by @RoyalMail and there doesn't seem to be a way to get hold of them to dispute that? is that £20 down the toilet?

@DavidLammy @RoyalMail Hey there Lammy Lad. If Labour was in power right now but you were down to 20% of the normal workforce (as is the case in much of the London area) would you be able to run the country to the same standard as under normal cir***stances?

@Shurickthegerm1 @DavidLammy @RoyalMail Fatuous comment. My sorting office is 8 miles away and anyway, as pointed out by others, collection option is not available. I understand that staff sickness / isolation is a problem but no post now for two weeks... Getting what we have paid for? No!

@theJeremyVine Jeremy, Royal Mail is a shambles. Have been waiting a month for a letter to travel 30 miles! A 2nd attempt is 2 weeks old! 1st Cl*** is expensive so why should I have to pay for a signed for option. You’ll find this is a national problem. Amazon coping!
