Signed, sealed but not (re)delivered
From Rhiannon Chu 04:46 AM Jun 26, 2012
SingPost has started to remove its redelivery services for registered bulky parcels. The addressee must collect the item at the nearest post office or get someone else to collect it on his/her behalf if the first delivery attempt is unsuccessful.
The collection timing is only from Monday to Friday and after 2pm from the next working day. If a parcel is not collected, it would be returned to the sender.
This is inconvenient for customers.
There is no call in advance to check if anyone is available at the address to receive the delivery.
Customers now have to carry heavy parcels home or appoint someone to help.
Five working days for collection is also not enough.
SingPost should abolish this system or at least give advance notice before making a delivery.

Wonder anyone from post office will response. Read that someone else parcel got to collect from another post office, not nearest post office, ask for another fee for redelivery? :skeptical: -
Postal service provider never buck up the service standard of the postal service… and instead venturing into loans and others…?
Transport provider SMRT never buck up the service standard of the train service… and instead venturing to rentals and others…?
When national provider privatize…
This is what the pple get…
Privatizing… that’s 1 thing I dislike about current Singapore…
Makes the rich richer, and the peasant suffers… -

And these companies all started as public companies. How, I could never understand, could they transfer all these into hands of private and owned by individuals in the name of shares?Postal service provider never buck up the service standard of the postal service.. and instead venturing into loans and others..?

At one time, I watched the post lady, thinking how her job must be more ‘singnang’ these days since most people have computers and emails, and more start using e-cards. Until about a year ago, I started pitying her - got so much things to lug along because of online purchases - I also wonder if her pay has been increased (most likely not).
These are all changes that lifestyle and technology is causing, may not be entirely the ‘fault’ of the post office. That said, there is definitely room for improvement in the service levels here. -
If cannot improve services that I feel is up to my "standard", then I will try to reduce online purchase using their service.
No strength to carry heavy parcels. If have to pay additional price for redelivery (yet cannot choose a time), add up cost and more expensive, what’s the point of buying online? -
