Post Offices ignoring tracked parcels, no receipt, etc.

[Obelix]

If you paid for it you will have a receipt. If it's tracked for etc then it will get scanned when delivery is either attempted, or sucessful and then you get an update.

If you need proof of postage (which is deemed for first class  letter post to be proof of delivery) then you have to ask for it at the time and make sure they give you one.

Surely whoever took the parcel shouldn't hand it over and leave without requesting the receipt and tracking number.

Have to agree...i have sent dozens of parcels from the P.O.  and  have always been given a receipt,just to add the "barcode" is also a tracking number,if you put this into P.O tracking it will say where/when/time it has been posted,from which post office and will also say when it arrived,both at the post office it arrived at plus the address when delivered to...i feel any negligence is on the part of whoever took it in.
