There's been a lot of talk lately over the death of the local post office. Whilst the one at the…read moreQueen's Head in (or at least near) Londonderry can't lay any claim to single-handedly reviving the local post office, it certainly bucks the trend. Having lived in Wolverhampton for three years and used their cavernous, pretty grim post office, it was nice to go to a smaller much more community based one where the three staff know the local people and regular customers. It's nice to feel a part of that kind of environment; one which is increasingly difficult to find in cities. It also maintains the Post Office trend of selling random items (handbag anyone?) alongside envelopes, paper and sellotape whilst you wait behind people posting stuff they've sold on eBay (the only reason I go in there) or folk sorting their car tax out. Yet perhaps the most useful thing about this Post Office is that it has a free cash machine outside, one of the only ones in walking distance around the area (the other is on Langley Green High Street).

Lots of good deals on wines and snacks. Some sweet art magazines i can't believe they stock in Rowley (some i ha vent ever seen in Birmingham). The post office is quick and painless and the ques go down quick even though their is only one booth. Always stocked up to the brim ive never walked away without what i needed from that visit.

When our regular post office failed to survive the recent cull, we switched to using Shirley Road…read more This post office sits in a small row of shops, and has street parking outside, although finding a space can be difficult at peak times. Perhaps because of its location next to a small general store, this post office doesn't sell much else apart from postal items; you won't be able to pick up your missed during the weekly shop bits and pieces here. However, it more than makes up for this by being the friendliest post office we have ever used. We send out a lot of items in the post (home business and ebay wardrobe clearance) meaning that we can have 10-15 items per trip. The staff in this post office are really efficient, meaning that other customers in the queue are kept happy (we try to go when it is quieter). Many post offices will complain if you bring more than a couple of items, but not here. The staff take a sensible approach, asking you whether items are all the same, and whizzing through the recording and certificates of posting at great speed. All of this is while chatting away, and remembering all their regular customers. Certainkly well worth adopting as your regular post office.

Easy to reach on foot, via bus and has free parking if driving to it. Situated inside the local costcutters which is now easier to access with a pushchair or limited mobility thanks to the addition of an automatic door. Staff are helpful and find best deal for you on postage as well as being patient with ebayers who ship alot of packages. Only negative is low staffing first thing in a morning, between 9am and 9.45 it is extremely crowded/busy as local first schools drop off at 9am and only one member of staff is working.

The staff are really friendly and helpful and take the time to learn your name and what sort of service you generally require - e.g. recorded delivery etc. Really good with packages when i'm doing ebay stuff etc. There is a free car park just outside the shopping complex and a couple of shops and a chippy. There is a high school over the road (arrow vale) so i try to avoid going about 3pm when the kids all come out of school, but otherwise really great.
I use this post office on a regular basis for all my post office related needs. The post office is…read moreusually quite busy in the mornings, at lunchtime and at the end of the day, so I would avoid coming to here at those times if you can avoid it. The post office has very competent staff and I have never once lost my temper in the queue or for inferior service by the staff. They also have a fairly wide range of magazines and confectionary and I am always striking up a conversation with the very friendly chap that works at the confectionary counter. He is slightly abstract in his thinking, but once you can appreciate his sense of humour you will be addicted to speaking to him. Good service, short waiting times and a pleasant atmosphere. Yes Moseley Post Office ticks all of these boxes. Surely this can't be a real post office?

But then I can't say I've been into any particularly memorable post offices before. Other than this one. Firstly, let me just say that the staff are all very efficient and know their stuff. But, for me, one of the pluses of this particular post office is the other customers. The diverse variety of people you get in Moseley appears to be condensed into its post office queues, so time spent in the queue seems to go much faster. Who knew that a post office queue could be diverting? The guy behind the newspapers & confectionary counter always has something amusing to say as well, just to keep you entertained on your way out. Of course, it's also in a lovely historic building too, which is a bonus. And I've never had anything other than good service there. So, it may only be a post office, but one perhaps slightly more worth noting.

However, thankfully the services offered by the post office aren't stuck sixty years in the past as well. The office functions as a bureau de change, trading foreign currency for those going abroad on holiday, selling a decent range of greetings cards for those unable to head into town to one of the big stores such as Clinton's or Card Factory, as well as having a free electronic cashpoint outside, a rarity in the area. However, (thankfully) not all of the services have been brought up to modern standards. The service is always friendly and personable, with the workers behind the counter always willing to have a chat after they've got your money.

That's before they bought in self service machines and it's probably not overstating that it has changed my life somewhat. It may not be any quicker at the self-service machine, seeing as I'm not a trained PO professional but I pretty quickly learnt the order the questions are going to come up on the big touch-screen in front of me to select what sort of postal service I need. You will be very unlucky if you have to wait in line here as there are plenty of machines that mostly work. If there is anywhere you may have to wait in line is if you need a 'proof of postage' receipt or are sending by any traceable service (recorded deliver, special delivery etc.) but otherwise your stamps are printed along with your receipt in seconds and you pop your post in the box and go. Even better, the post office is now open until 6.30 each week night. It is almost empty for the last hour as no-one knows about late opening. Until now that is.
As Post Offices go... This one is pretty good actually. Ideally situated just off Victoria Square,…read moreI believe it's the largest Post Office in the City Centre. It offers all the services you would need, including a travel money service, a selection of collectable coins/small gifts, insurance/banking and a cash machine. There are a number of counters (and normally plenty of staff), so you WILL have a wait (inevitable these days), but now there is a ticket system in place so you at least have some idea of how long that's going to be. Plus, no more queuing! This branch has installed plenty of seats so you can sit and wait to be called. I popped in to post a parcel to America this week. Obviously, being the festive season... It was packed. I took a ticket and was informed there were 15 people in front of me. When you get your ticket from the automatic machine, you select the service you require (meaning that people waiting for passport/financial services aren't in the same queue as people who just want to post something). Posting things abroad is expensive these days, but the friendly and helpful member of staff I encountered made the pain a little more bearable. Once I was called, I scooted up to the desk to be greeted with a big friendly smile and was asked what I required. I explained I wanted to post a parcel and the guy gave me a sympathetic look and asked me to place my item on the scale. Yes... It was pricey. After going through the American import protocol (filling in the little sticker that pretty much renders any surprise gone for the recipient as you detail EXACTLY what is in the parcel), we had a chat about who I was sending it to and what I was sending. Not in a creepy way, just an interested one. Whilst the exchange was going on, we got to the subject of upcoming travel plans. With two trips abroad planned (so far) for 2014/2015, we got on to the subject of their various financial services for people going on holidays. Now, I am pretty clued up on currency etc - but he had some pretty good information about services I didn't know the Post Office offered (and assured me he wasn't on commission). I left lighter in the wallet, but not too bothered about it. I did everything I needed fairly swiftly and without and hassle. The service I received was pretty fantastic and I left armed with information about things I very well may use in the future. I would definitely use this Post Office again rather than my usual JQ branch if I was headed into town.
