The latest ‘Post Office’ to be opened in central London today (Entrance in Tudor Street EC4) – the entrance to the ‘Post and Go’ closet containing four Post and Go machines and two stamp vending machines.. This is the Post Office ‘Outreach’ service for central London.

The existing single Post And Go machine at Ludgate Circus Crown Office was decommissioned just before midday today.

In an adjoining ‘ Windowless Room’ accessable from Tudor Street four new machines have been installed. These machines accept Card Payments ONLY (No Cash).
The branch number appearing on Faststamps and labels is 242007 (- Which suggests that the ‘owning branch is 136 Southwark Bridge Road).

Ludgate Circus Crown Office will close tomorrow (22nd April 2009).

As has been widely publicised, The Post Office at Ludgate Circus EC4, which currently has one Post and Go kiosk is to be closed and replaced by “the provision of some self-service mailing facilities” as explained here http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/media_centre/post_offices.htm

It is now understood that the new facilty will be four NEW Post and Go machines, and will feature payment by Debit Card ONLY- No Cash will be acceptable.

These machines will have a Office Code DIFFERENT to that currently used and so the current Ludgate Circus Machine will cease to be used, making the Labels and Faststamps currently generated most desirable..
