RESPONSE TO SA POST OFFICE

Thank you for your response.<br> <br> I must however say that our local Post Office was SO QUIET during the strike period, that even the old beggar who always sits outside - gave up and left!<br> <br> I can personally attest to receiving no more than 2 items of post during this time, so I fail to see that the boxes were available. Certainly NOT for receiving post.<br> <br> Secondly, I called the Post Office yesterday to tell them that I have not yet paid my rental. I was informed that the rental for over-60's was lower than the normal.<br> <br> We are very pleased to hear this, naturally, but we have been using this box for 7 years and were not even aware of this, so actually we have been paying the higher rate for the last 3 years, since that is when the rates for over-60's apparently kicked in.<br> <br> It would have been nice to know this a little earlier. <br> <br> (Maybe we threw the notice out by mistake) - but maybe other over-60's who are still unaware of this, may benefit from this report<br> <br> <br> Regards<br>
