Head Post Office, Alappuzha

Excellent staff!!nThe staff here are very nice and helpfull. Very neatly managed and placid area. This Post Office was the first post office established in Kerala. It also has a special cancellation which is applied to letters and postcards. You can get one upon request. It also has a Philatelic counter where you can buy new stamp issues of India.

One of the oldest post office in Kerala. You may see some historical value inside.nAlappuzha was one of the business centre of Kerala as the water transport was a common travel method adopted very early. Now majority is not in practice. So the reason, post office started very early to pass communicationnnUnlike before post office works like a finance bank too. You can open accounts and carry over some of your financial needs with their plans. Majority is future concerns.nnStaff is good and able. Majority case and as this is head post office, the rush will be high. But they well practice COVID protocol. So there will be delay.nnLeave apart finance, their main agenda to support the postal communication is also well managed. My courier and letters have got good response and fast reach.nnOverall a suggested place for postal and small finanace.

This review is for awareness of those customers whom are sending parcels and couriers on regular basis. Please check the weight of your package before sending from here because there is no display screen available to show parcel weight at parcel desk. I experienced excess weight of 600 gms when i weighed my parcel here. When i asked about it they said it is correct. I placed the complaint about it and it is under process.

Head post office also known as Bazar PO. Good staff.nnI like it ✌
