Dear Sir,
I have been using the services provided by Thanh Ba post office for years and now I am writing to express the satisfaction and dissatisfaction towards the post office services.
First, I find that your post office has a good quality and it is equipped with modern technology Next is the attitude of the staff that expresses me most They are very polite and helpful Last, it is the prices of the services They are always reasonable.
However, your post office has some things that may make your customers unsatisfied I think that the post office should open earlier and close later, moreover, it should has a security guard , I find the post office has a spacious front office but has no one to keep motorbikes or bicylces The last thing I want to tell you
is the punctuality of deliver of letter and newspapers They are sometimes late and lost.
I hope that your post office will be made a better place.
Yours faithfully,
Nguyen Van An
