Post Office Strike

South African Post Office

Update on industrial action at some Gauteng facilities of SA Post Office

Postal services in South Africa are still affected by industrial action by mail workers in the Gauteng province as well as in Bloemfontein and Polokwane. Talks to solve the strike are currently at a particularly sensitive stage and the Post Office is not at liberty to disclose details at this stage.
No employees at Post Office outlets are on strike, but intimidation and violence has led to the temporary closure of a number of post offices in the Johannesburg area, while six post offices in the area had to be closed as a result of vandalism. According to Lungile Lose, spokesperson for the SA Post Office, the company took this decision in the interest of customers and employee safety.

Hey guys, only just managed to get somewhere...

Been trolling the net for the whole week for solutions on how to even track my Reo. USPS site has been useless since it left the states, and naturally SAPO doesn't even hold a candle to that!

Today I "struck gold" in a sense. Doesn't help delivery I know but at least I know it's in SA, and where in SA.

021 590 5716 / 5728 are the magic numbers, Epping post office international dept, who apparently deal with most USPS parcels. I gave my USPS tracking number and was quite efficiently told that my package is in JHB and they might just be moving things on from Monday.

Not going to hold my breath, but thought maybe some of you would like some small peace of mind too.

Just really sucks that I could've been vaping on a Reo for over 2 weeks by now!!!

If I was waiting for a REO, I would absolutely flip!
