Post offices rejecting new ID cards for payment of pensions

Dear Editor,
Last month the post office on Lamaha Street rejected my new national ID card because the Old Age Pension had the old ID number. I had experienced this problem at another post office some time ago but because I knew the staff  I was accommodated.

I would suggest that the Ministry of Human Services communicate with the GPO on this matter to avoid the transportation cost it could entail for some pensioners.

Yours faithfully,
