Another thank you card - this time for Oakengates Post Office 😊👍 Oakengates currently have 3 colleagues isolating for 12 weeks which leaves only the 2 of them (Karen and Sarah) – they’ve been doing a fantastic job!
Our Bourton-on-the-Water store looking great! Bourton Street Volunteers have enlisted the services of local professional photographer Alastair Currill, as a volunteer, to capture the essence of the Covid lockdown here. So this is his fantastic work!👍
A nice thank you call from a customer at the Stourport Food store 👍
I am very pleased to inform you that we have recently received a telephone call from a customer regarding the service you and your team have provided in-store. They said,
A customer called to praise the young man on the door today (13th May) as he greeted her so nicely. He was there monitoring how many people were going in the store and he was the nicest man she has ever met. Exceptional service.
Going the extra mile! Here are a few customer comments from our Post Office branches - well done!👍
Hednesford Post Office
"Chris is always so cheerful even though they’re always super busy. So friendly and helpful. Since Covid 19 I send between 50-100 parcels a week Many at one time she never complains when dealing with my large number of parcels Thank you to the Hednesford team!"
Oakengates Post Office
"Please pass to the appropriate manager - thank you. I wanted to say how well the staff are doing at my local post office in Oakengates. Both Karen and Sarah are working really hard and it is appreciated very much. Not easy at the moment with just the two of them. They deserve a big thank you from everyone."
Reddicap Heath Post Office
"The ladies who work there are amazing. Always got a smile on there face always a hello how are you. The way things are at the moment they are doing a great job. Always helpful.. always get a great service"
"I have just been to the cleanest post office ever, I was there just before opening and Julie was cleaning the floor, countertops and machines, gave me great confidence in these sad times. Thank you."
Wombourne Post Office
"I was served in a professional but friendly manner and so much quicker than the post office I usually use when I’m not working from home. The shop was displaying all the necessary signage for social distancing and it was clear where to queue, stand and wait."
How you can get involved
We want you to share a picture of yourself and/or your team with your thumbs up and include a sentence outlining why you’ve given yourself, your team or a team member a ‘thumbs up’ today, along with the hashtag #TeamMC.
E.g. it could be some great customer feedback you’ve had for going above and beyond. Or something you’ve done to help the community that they’re proud of. Or just that the team is Okay.
To note: please take care of social distancing for pictures together as we are also following guidelines on this and hope you are too!
