The Post Office in the UK has had a really big scandal about faking results on their Horizon supplied Computer System and now they’ve entered the Christmas TV Advert Hall of Infamy by faking a Post Office in a “quaint” High Street in the lovely town of Frome in Somerset.
Yes , we get the point, it’s an Advert, but it’s an advert promoting user friendly parcel drop-off and some of the people in Frome , who would appreciate a Post Office in their Town Centre High Street are not happy. The fact that there are two branches “close by” doesn’t matter, if you’re visiting the “quaint” High Street for shopping , then you want a Post Office there.
Where indeed is your Christmas Spirit Post Office?
The reality is post offices aren’t really quaint and friendly, they are generally quite stressful places ran by people who in the past (hopefully) have had to deal with wayward Computer Systems.
Namaste and Thank you for Reading.🙏
