I don?t usually write on here but I cannot believe the service I received this week. I received a parcel whilst I was out on Monday and arranged redelivery to east dulwich post office. Received confirmation email it would be there by Wednesday. Queued for 30 mins (pain was it was, even worse with newborn in tow!) only to be told it wasn?t there.

Queued for 30 mins again Thursday morning - only to be told, again, it wasn?t there.

Decided to give it one more shot on Thursday at 4pm, luckily the staff took pity on me and looked for my parcel. Again, it wasn?t there. They advice me to go to the sorting office in Peckham...


My parcel was in Peckham, they said they are really sorry but east dulwich post office is refusing to take parcels (even with emails on the contrary). They had asked the post office staff to put up signs to prevent people queuing like I have but it looks like this was ignored by east dulwich staff.


My advice - just get on the bus to Peckham, saves 2 days of hassle at Christmas time to get your post redirected!

I have also had things delivered to the ED PO and they also have insisted they didn't have it. Only when I have really insisted back did they check to discover my parcel was indeed there.

Personally I'd have things delivered to Co-op or various local newsagents wherever possible and bypass RM entirely. Newsagents are open way later, the queues are way shorter and they're located much closer. An altogether more pleasant process. The same is true with outbound parcels: you can get fully tracked UPS, DHL and other international brand courier services at local newsagents for half the price of RM.

This happened to me and I asked a postman why it had happened. He said that if the postman on your round that day is new or a stand-in (ie not a regular guy) they don't give him a parcel (in case he nicks it) but just tell him to deliver the card.

I'm with IlonaM myself. They are paid to deliver it. I expect them to deliver it to my home.

      Decision 2 April - Proposed Development - The Sidings, Railway Rise, SE22

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      The private sector is not going to build a significant amount of social housing. Everyone is very keen for *everyone else* to subsidise construction of social housing. I take it none of the objectors to this scheme was suggesting putting up council tax so Southwark could build more social housing...? Social housing isn't going to appear in serious numbers if the state doesn't borrow money and build it.

      Tesla at Belair House

      They must be really desperate to collab with Tesla. Honestly, it's not even the worst thing they've done. I've noticed these sex events happening in the last few months at a place that's supposed to be a restaurant and venue. I was planning my wedding there and was appalled by the setup for those events. When I discovered what was going on, I was disgusted by how they were using the same rooms as 'playrooms' where families are supposed to eat. The hygiene and safety concerns are just unacceptable. We really need to come together as a community to put a stop to this! They're destroying a sacred, Grade II listed building, and it's just not right. The owners need to be held accountable for their actions. It's time for us to stand up and protect our heritage and ensure that these spaces are used appropriately, especially when they should be serving families and the community.   sex events vid.mp4 sex events videe.mp4

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      By trinidad · Posted

      yes, which properly explains why they responded to me on this occassion, as i included the CQC in my response. I have spoken to the Health Ombudsman, and they feel the regulator is more suited to the issues I have raise for more than a year now. welcome aboard. its great to have you on the thread. so sorry you are also experiencing issues. has this been addressed as yet?

      Tbh most Tesla owners are people who are concerned about the environment and have purchased accordingly- but mr nut job has soured their purchasing- so I actually sympathise with them being associated with such an awful man. But to actively promote the company given the knowledge we now know about him makes utterly unacceptable.
