POST offices have stopped taking parcels because of a meltdown in the system caused by strikes. A number of branches said they are turning customers away with over two weeks to go before Christmas.…

Over 100,000 postal workers are staging walkouts on Friday 9 December, Sunday 11 December, Wednesday 14 December, Thursday 15 December, Friday 23 December and Christmas Eve.Customers wanting to post second class items must do so at the latest by December 12 while expensive special deliveries must be sent by December 21.

A Post Office spokesman said: “Monday 12 December is now likely to be even busier in Post Offices as customers race to take advantage of the cheaper postage as this is now the last recommended date for sending 2nd class parcels to arrive for Christmas. Our advice is don’t wait to come into a branch to get Christmas parcels sent.”
