Louis Trichardt Post Office nonexistent service

I want to report atrocious treatment and non-existent service at the Makhado Post Office today 25 Nov 2025.

I went to fetch a package that I got a notification for. When I arrived at 14h52 there was only one person doing motor vehicle licenses. I inquired about getting my package but was told that the person working with post office services is still on lunch. I asked if he knew when she would be back only to be told that she might not even come back today, he did not know. I was told to “just take a seat and wait and if the post office closes before she gets here then go home and come back another day…”.

I waited for half an hour with nobody showing up. Noticing that the person working with the NATIS papers was not at the counter anymore I walked around to the Branch Manager’s office where I noticed him sitting behind the desk with his feet up. I asked if he could maybe now help me since he seemed to be finished with the license customers but was told that he was not finished and could not leave them to help me. He said that he already told be to sit down and wait and that he would definitely not help me. I said it would only take two minutes but he said he did not have time for that.

When I took a photograph of the abandoned post office and asked for his name to make a complaint he became very aggressive and tried to take my phone from my. He also refused to give me his name, but he is obviously the only person working there so that would be easy enough to find out.
