Widow slams Post Office for delayed, 'less than half' redressal
Widow of the former post master, whose compensation arrived days after his death, has slammed Post Office for delaying the compensation as well as for offering an "utter disgrace" of the redressal.Terry Walter was one of 555 sub-postmasters who won a legal battle against the Post Office in 2019. He was part of the GLO Group Litigation Order (GLO) Scheme established after the 2019 High Court win.Walter had his Post Office contract terminated in 2008. He and Janet lost their business and then their family home. They moved in to rented accommodation where they lived for the past 15 years.Janet said Terry's claim was put forward in February 2024 and it has taken a year to receive an offer for redress from the government.
Terry passed away in February, a week before a letter arrived offering "less than half" of his original claim for financial redress.
