I was never very good at algebra, but what I think Mr axeman is trying to say is that staffing levels in the whole network have been reduced because offices have been closed, therefore offices that are open then have bigger queues because there are loads of customers who want serving but can't go where they would normally.

Or am I wrong again Axeman?

about on the money bigjames it seems a logical conclusion to me and quite obvious to why the ques are ever increasing in the offices that are left to barely cope with the extra influx.......... as for twa*man we'll not go there

Ah, the delights of reasoned and well-rounded debate, eh, Agent Yorkie?

TMan and Axeman if you cant both have a normal debate without snide comments about each other please use the "Foe" feature of this board and ignore each others posts. Frankly you keep hijacking threads and its getting boring.

If you don't know where it is check out your "User Control Panel" a link to which is on most pages of this board.

4 days into the extended hours period - how is it going?

We are open for an extra hour at our office, and we have done about 80 transactions in that hour. I don't think it is even 80 customers because so many do multiple transactions. Over 90% of those transactions are postage based, and no post will leave the office until the next day, a fact that most of our customers are unaware of when they walk in, so has it been worth it?

Has the extended opening hours been advertised? TBH this is the 1st I've heard of it

I went in the Crown Office the other day and saw nothing about the opening hours, however I did notice a bloke behind the counter who was the spitting image of :cfo albeit a younger version

No specific times but every house should have got Red Envelopes telling them what extra plans were being put in place for Christmas.
