Royal Mail Complaints issue

Hello
I'm not sure if this is the right place but I know from previous reading that someone on here may know.
I've had a big problem with a dodgy Postperson. I made a complaint by phone - 30 days ago and have not had even an acknowledgement. I know I will pursue it further but don't have a name or address to send my problem to.
Broadly it is to do with a postperson climbing my back gate and leaving it unlocked. There's more - and it's creepy. I want it dealt with. The lovely CS lady said it would be passed on to the local Delivery Depot's head. I've heard nothing.
I want to take it a step higher. I have scans of the red card and can prove it happened.
So, who do I contact? Any help most gratefully received.
Thanks

you really need to give more context0 -

Hi
Sorry for being vague.
The Postie left my parcel through the cat flap at the back of the house, red card said left in 'safe place' - I've never registered a safe place.
To know I have a cat flap they must have climbed over a 6ft gate just to check, as the cat flap is not visible from the back street or either neighbours' yard.
I live in the middle of a terrace. So all this involved finding I was not in, counting the houses and going round the back, climbing the gate to see if I have a cat flap, posting item through it, walking back around the block and writing the red card. Leaving the back gate which had been bolted twice, unlocked.
Hope this is a bit clearer. I had left my property relatively secure and came back to it open to anyone. Not best pleased. Also a bit freaked out at having someone mooching around my property and leaving it so anyone else could look in the windows etc.
It's been over 30 days since I complained and I have heard nothing back.
Cheers

you realise the postie has gone above and beyond whats required of them?
there intentions would have been nothing but helpful
I would expect a manager to have a word with the postie but thats it
The DO manager would most likely clear the complaint as having been dealt with on the CLEO system
if you want a response then contact RM CS again and it will go through as a second complaint0 -
Sounds like the Milk Tray man has found a job.0

Leaving a previously secured property with an unlocked gate.
Very helpful indeed.
Just out of curiosity custardy, in your eyes, is it possible for a postie to ever do wrong?0 -

I do indeed realise that climbing into the rear of property over a tall gate just in case I had a cat flap is above and beyond the call of duty. At least I'd hope so.
Thanks for the advice.

i never said they did right? or did i miss something?
still touchy over the snappy snaps bill i see0 -
If the postie got in, do you think it would be difficult for a scally? It was hardly secured was it if a working stiff could do it.
There is also no proof that the postman opened the gate in the first place. Just surmise. Unless you have cctv?0
