       Pensioners in the Urals are given only three hours a week to collect their pensions.

      Today at 15:35, residents of Plast in Chelyabinsk Oblast complained about the reduced working hours of the central branch of "Russian Post" on Oktyabrskaya. Now it operates once a week and closes at noon, which prevents some people from receiving their payments.

      

      — My mother couldn't collect her pension today because people had been standing in line since 4 a.m. There is no staff working at the post, it operates only once a week and until 1 p.m., — wrote a local resident in the "Teksler, help" group on VKontakte.

      

      According to the notice on the branch's doors, pension payments are made according to the following schedule: August 8 — from the 8th to the 14th, August 15 — for the 15th-21st, August 22 — for the 22nd-24th. The office opens at 10 a.m.

      Earlier, we reported that in Yekaterinburg, in the Sineye Kamni microdistrict, the only post office closed after the last employee resigned.
