- WHWill HApr 25, 20262.0I understand that it is challenging to staff stress sometimes. However, updating Google My Business hours is not all that difficult. People rely on GMB hours rather than a printout sellotaped to the glass. Personally, it cost me lost work hours to leave early on a Friday to get there for 4.30pm, when it was advertised online as closing at 5.30pm. Seeing 12.30 on the paper in the window really did not help. Other than that, staff are friendly when open, and it’s good to have a local post office.
- ABalan brashApr 7, 20261.0Ridiculous opening hours, closing at 2:45 in the afternoon, that’s if they have even been bothered to open at all. But still have the closing time on the website as 17:30. If you going to close early, update your website!
- RLRaymond LittleFeb 22, 20263.0When it's open it's good with nice friendly staff but there seems to be a staffing issue so even with the restricted hours that are advertised it can still be closed unexpectedly.
- MXMasood XhastiJan 28, 20261.0No good
- SHStacey HartJun 2, 20255.0Lovely girl served me today and was very helpful. I had issues with returning a parcel, she kindly was able to assist me using Amazon app to correct the issue. Great customer service!
