Great Baddow Post Office

Pleasant enough staff, always a long queue.

I always get attentive service once I get to the front and the best advice when I need it. It's not their fault that they are understaffed. The uncontrollable part is that some people are bringing packages that need weighing whilst others need one stamp. Give yourself more time should this happen to you however, I've never had to leave the queue in a rush.

Slowest serving post office in the world. Two staff behind counter but only one working whilst the other shuffles paper. Queue is easily 10 people deep. Staff should prioritise serving customers and then deal with admin during quieter times

Went down there at 610pm and the main post office counter was close but website says open till 630, so I asked the guy working in the store and was told that he couldn't send my letter as the till for the post wasnt open. Also had a problem on another occasion where it said it was open but closed mid day and knowone in the shop was trained to deal with post so why advertise that its open when they cant do the post.

The queues here can be ridiculous. One 1 person on the till at 12pm in the weeks before Christmas. During the rest of the year I have regularly queued for 30-40 minutes, even if I drop off a prepaid parcel. They could do with a self checkout or something. If you need to send a parcel look into DPD or Hermes, they're not perfect but they don't waste my time.
