AN POST HAS said that a payment processing issue that led to some customers not receiving their wages, bank transfers or social welfare payments into their bank accounts has been resolved.

Several people contacted The Journal raising the payment issues, saying that they were unable to pay direct debits or buy food and fuel.

There were also payment issues reported to An Post on 2 March.
