Postoffice wants to open branch which is not even half a mile from Littleworth PO STAFFORD, which we are opposing as there is no requirement or need for another branch in area. HENCE we signing petition to oppose planning of another Postoffice branch and request POL to withdraw this application.
This is Postoffice Limited's White Space scheme they opening PO's anywhere just numbers they not bothered about existing PO branchs but just put the another branch no matter how it effects existing branch, it is waste of taxpayers money, Postmaster's are struggling to meet end needs customers buying postage online, not sending many letters bcoz of digital media, & now POL itself killing existing PO's by opening branches near to existing ones, at first they closing now they opening please help
