Australia Post Issues Scam Warning: “If They Knock On Your Door, It’s Not Us” — The Shovel

Australia Post issued a statement reminding customers that they will never leave a parcel, and that the only way to know that it’s a genuine Australia Post delivery is to check your letterbox for a ‘Sorry We Missed You’ card.

The Shovel
#AusPost spent $11.5m on automated sorting facilities in its Bayswater (Vic) hub and it still can’t distinguish between Australia’s two biggest states on either side of the continent. Amazing #RoI #auspol #logistics

I just spent about an hour writing up detailed feedback comments for an #AusPost parcel delivery survey after (yet another) pretty terrible delivery “experience”, how’s your day going? 😤 😮‍💨

The Australia Post chatbot was having none of my bullshit. #auspost #privacy

Auspost has once again said a delivery is at the local post office because "safe place not suitable". I was WFH and didn't even get a knock / delivery attempt.

To be fair this only occurs once in a while.

Not sure should whether I should
1. Complain b/c this shouldn't be happening
or
2. Not complain because postie is possibly under impossible KPIs
or
3. Passive aggressively put a sign on the door saying "Please knock for delivery"

How can it be to the minute, in one way (Notice the :05) Yet roughly between one and three? #Auspost
I got a message from #Auspost. "Your package has been delayed". Yes I noticed that.
I have a tree stuck in the post in Sydney, three days. Move your bleedin' arse #Auspost

@joannaholman
i thought i read somewhere that aus post were no longer going to deliver daily — our regular postie responded by getting a new job, cos she needed to work full time

parcels are delivered by van, letters by bike,

but, the letter service has been rubbish for about 3 years now, which is why none of us old farts who liked to post stuff bother any more.

delivery is very unreliable

electoral commission sent me an email asking if i wanted to register to vote by mail, and i haven’t cos i value my vote too much
