Overcharged at Post Office

I posted several items today in the Post office.
All were sent 2nd class large letter and all weighed roughly the same and should have cost £1.64.
I have only just looked at the receipt and one of them has weighed up at double the others and I have been charged £2.22.
I did not think this was even possible and can only assume the machine has not returned to zero from the previous weigh?
Going to check what I am being charged more closely in future.

I guess they must employ humans, after all. I'd often wondered about what was behind the counter at our local branch. (although they'd have been replaced if robots)0

Ours aren't fast enough to be robots. They're lovely people but I've never seen humans move so slowly as they do.Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed.

If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'
