Ce qu'en disent les visiteurs
I went to pick up a framed picture today and they didn’t make me act up, since the service was great and the staff very helpful. The Portrait was undamaged and handed to me directly. A little tip if you need anything go to a young, pretty man that goes by the name of Thanos.
À propos
Ellinika Tachydromeia, connue dans toute la Grèce sous son acronyme familier ELTA, est le service postal national et un repère fiable de la vie quotidienne dans les communautés de Lesbos. L'agence desservant le secteur d'Alyfada offre les services postaux et de messagerie essentiels qui relient ce coin tranquille de l'île au reste de la Grèce et au monde — qu'il s'agisse d'envoyer des cartes postales chez soi, de recevoir des colis ou d'effectuer des transactions financières de base que les bureaux ELTA du pays proposent traditionnellement.
Pour les visiteurs, une halte au bureau ELTA local peut être l'un de ces rituels de voyage discrètement satisfaisants : poster une carte écrite à la main depuis un petit village grec possède un charme que les messages numériques ne sauraient reproduire. Le personnel des bureaux de poste ruraux de Lesbos est généralement serviable et habitué à aider les voyageurs, ce qui en fait une démarche pratique et étonnamment agréable. Que vous ayez besoin de timbres, souhaitiez envoyer un colis ou deviez simplement régler une livraison, c'est ici qu'il faut venir dans les environs d'Alyfada.
Au-delà du pratique, les bureaux ELTA constituent une petite fenêtre ouverte sur les rythmes de la vie insulaire grecque. Les habitants qui s'y arrêtent pour récupérer leur courrier ou régler des factures, les brèves conversations au guichet, le rythme sans hâte d'une agence rurale — tout cela ajoute de la texture à une visite. Si vous passez du temps à explorer les villages et le littoral de cette partie de Lesbos, glisser quelques cartes postales et une visite à la poste dans votre itinéraire est un moyen simple de laisser une trace tangible de votre séjour sur l'île.
Avant de partir
À quoi s'attendre
Cette agence de la poste nationale grecque vous plonge dans le rythme ordinaire de Mytilène : des habitants viennent régler des factures, retirer des colis ou échanger quelques mots avec le personnel. Les employés sont habitués à accueillir les voyageurs souhaitant acheter des timbres ou expédier des cartes postales, dans une atmosphère détendue et cordiale. Glisser une carte écrite à la main dans une boîte aux lettres grecque reste un petit plaisir de voyage que rien de numérique ne remplace vraiment.
Quand y aller
Ouvert toute l'année ; les matinées en semaine sont généralement les moments les plus calmes pour une visite.
Comment s'y rendre
L'agence est située en plein centre-ville de Mytilène, à quelques minutes à pied du port et de la place centrale — aucune voiture n'est nécessaire depuis la plupart des hébergements du centre.

They are late and many times the letters never arrive. Employees are incredibly bored. Honestly, there is no reason for them to exist.

They don't answer the phone normally... I was waiting for a card from Piraeus and of course they didn't bring it for 1 month. And finally it came to another neighbor's house.... Imagine if they stole our cards too because you are irresponsible..

The worst thing is that the employees don't want to do their job. The other day, a person close to me was waiting for a card from the bank and the post office lost it, which ended up with someone else taking it and trying to access the account, meaning zero responsibility, they don't want to cooperate there, so what do you have open? To make people's lives difficult.

Why do we pay for parcels to be delivered by the postman to the recipient's door??? It's +50% on the price and a message comes to the mobile phone saying come and pick it up. They don't answer the phones at all. They are only there for bills, nothing else.

They don't even pick up the phone for fun and don't inform us that the package has arrived on the island. We have to smell our nails every time.

For the past hour and a half, I've been calling to ask: how many days does it take for a simple letter to arrive from Athens, as it's already been 7 since they sent it to me and no one is there to answer. I keep ringing and they don't answer. I've never seen such indifference before...anywhere! The most unacceptable of the unacceptable! What exactly are they doing? What are they after?

At all the counters except 6 there is a sign above "All services except parcels" One can easily assume that they cannot even receive a parcel, therefore there may be a misunderstanding with the short-tempered dark-haired lady at counter 6. Otherwise, another public company with employees who are not afraid for their position. Of the many times I have had to receive an order from Elta, and there are quite a few, only 1 was brought to my house, maybe the postman had come for his coffee or had personal business in the area and said to make a delivery. The good thing is that they send messages to the mobile if a letter or parcel has arrived. They also take the phone every now and then. They never answer when you pick up.

They called me this morning Wednesday 2/10/24 they said we have a package you can come pick up I tell them sorry I'll come pick it up? Aren't you coming? He tells me half a minute and hands me the postman A middle-aged man who was bored with his life and wanted to hang up talks to me and tells me where you are I tell him in his apartment I tell him the address he says he has many houses there he doesn't have a number? I tell him no, he tells me no neighbors? I say no I don't know anyone here Entometaxis I've moved here 4 months in the apartment, he tells me where his house is I explain where it is and to call me when he gets on the street to go out, I've been waiting all day NO ONE EVER CAME Of course I'll talk to the central office too!

Like any other post office, sometimes you wait a long time and other times not.
