Rated 3 stars ... because I’m going to give Aust Post the benefit of the doubt here that the thirty dollars cash I mailed to Sydney on the 12/07/21 didn’t ( ?? ) disappear in transit ... but ... I have a Gumtree seller on the other end saying he did not receive it.
I sent cash ( standard post - not tracked - from an Australia Post post box at The Gap shopping centre precinct at 4pm 12/07/21 )
My decision to send cash was a goodwill gesture - as all of Sydney is in a strict lockdown - and I didn’t want the guy to have to traipse himself to ...
Read morehis local post office in Nora Heights ( seems to be an Australia Post Office on every Aussie Contact Tracing List ever written ) With Sydney’s current community transmission - and - the seller being unable to access his bank account due to some complications - I figured thirty dollars wasn’t worth withholding. He says he never received it - and I feel that his response is genuine.Hi Cat
Thanks for the cookie cutter one size fits all response. ...
Read more If you’d read my review thoroughly - I am aware Aust Post cannot track my parcel. How you can prohibit a client sending cash unless they pay your “ Anti-Flog” tax is quite ethically murky in my opinion - but hey, you’re on the pay roll - not me - so I’ll assume you’re correct. Also noted that you’ve missed the point of my posting was to warn people about the ( unproven ) dishonesty of other people on your payroll. Perhaps if Aust Post channelled more funding into supervision and less funding into damage control PR on consumer experience threads ... we wouldn’t need to pay extra for tracking. Just sayin.Questions & Answers
Always seem to be long delays. Covid has well and truly died now and you would think the business would have enough knowledge by now on how to execute scenario planning regardless. They don't even bother with excuses anymore. It just seems to sit at 'received for processing for days before moving to the next state for yet more (eventual) processing. The so-called on time (7 days) gets changed to just say 'updated' with an extra week added on and no further information. Surely there is a more efficient way to manage the postal service by now. Why do Aus Post execs get so much for doing so little. So much wastage ...
The info shows Incorrectly sorted and forwarder to correct location. Actually, it arrived at the post office 3km away from my house last night and is now being sent back to the city (about 52km away). This means it will arrive with a delay of at least three days. Can I trouble you to make sure it doesn't get sent to further? No. AMQ575008301000935001

Hi Alana,
Thanks for taking the time to provide your feedback....
Read more We don't recommend sending cash in the mail, and it's actually prohibited except when Registered Post, or a parcel service in conjunction with Extra Cover and Signature on Delivery is used. Due to the untracked nature of regular mail we aren't able to chase this one up for you as you're already aware. Please let us know if you've got any other questions. - Cat
