customers mistakes

Post by montriff »

I had a recorded card this morning and while the gentleman was signing for it he started ranting on about how it was a replacement birthday card from his daughter .The previous one had gone missing sent a week ago and had money in it :sad:
Even though i was on leave last week it felt like he was blaming me :crazy:
He lives at number 54 and when i got to number 34 guess what was there :Very Happy Not only had she put the wrong number on it, but had also underpayed postage so it had a yellow surcharge sticker on it :crazy: So instead of putting it back in the box(which i should of done to make him wait even longer) i took back to his house and gave it to him personally ,pointing out the mistakes :dance
i wonder if he rings customer services up and tells them it wasn't our fault ,if he has made a complaint

you should have asked him to bend over and used his rear entrance to post the bloody card. lovely daughter who don't even know where her dad lives eh? he's probably mad at her and took it out on you. don't take it personally, you did your good deed for the day :Very Happy

i had a woman the other day i left a 739 for and the next day she had a go at me, she told me she was in and knows all about postman just leaving forms, to which i replied yes i know you was in but you was playing music really loud and nobody could hear the door so i left you a form. She looked a bit shocked and to be fair she did apologise
