Used this post office a few times now and to be honest they may as well shut it down ! Today they have a sign stating you can only withdraw £100 what use is that ! Must be so poorly managed that they can’t organise enough cash to be available to meet a reasonable requirement . My wife explained she needed £200 but they wouldn’t help even with her offer to make two withdrawals but they were happy that I drove there and made a separate withdrawal for £100 🤦 same people same amount of money surely . Yet to meet staff that aren’t rude to say the least

I wanted to purchase 10 stamps as needed them immediately for my business and the assistant refused to sell me all 10 because there would not be any left for others! So she had the 10 stamps (but only 10) I required but because they are sloppy with their procurement, I was denied the service and the product! First, this is not the official PO policy, and 2nd - who authorised you to deny available products to Post Office customers?

I’ve been in there for the last four days trying to pay money in and they have had closed signs up randomly through the day when the website states they are open
