Evri / Parcel drop shops now Post Offices

Now that Evri / Parcel drop shops are now technically "Post Offices", will we be able to drop PPI mail bags in them?

I'm sorry if this has another thread or been discussed as I haven't been on the site very much,

No.  Some Post Offices, the 3 in my town don't, are taking Evri parcels, Evri parcel shops are not Post Offices taking Royal Mail items. I certainly can't take my RM parcels to my local car parts retailer where the Evri parcel drop is !

OK! Lets me re-phrase this. My local Evri shop now takes Royal Mail parcels and our postie calls it "now a post office". I wanted to know if and when I'll be able to take a sack of PPI mail in there?

Wouldn't it be better to ask your local Evri shop it may be that not all shops will accept all postal services.

Considering that when staff in the Post Office change over they don't know how to put PPI through Horizon, I don't have much faith in shop keepers knowing what PPI is other than an old insurance swizz.
