Noel said he was relieved to have “rung that bell” to mark the end of his cancer treatment, even though he is still receiving immunotherapy at Ysbyty Gwynedd in Bangor.
“The big word cancer came. But, I must say thanks to the Alaw ward at Ysbyty Gwynedd and Glan Clwyd and Wrexham, they have been marvellous and I am still here.”
The Post Office has said it “apologised unreservedly” to Horizon victims.
Even though he secured his settlement, Noel said the scandal would “always be with me and never go away”.
He added he was constantly thinking about other victims who are still waiting for their compensation, and that he was waiting “patiently” for the next report by former high court judge Sir Wyn Williams, who is chairing the Post Office inquiry.
“You can never move on,” Noel said.
“There is more to come. I hope Sir Wyn will hit hard on the people that were involved. I think there should be names and people should be held to account for the injustice they have done.”
Speaking previously, a Post Office spokesperson said: “We apologise unequivocally for the hurt and suffering the Post Office caused to so many people during the Horizon IT Scandal.
“Today, our organisation is focused on working transparently with the ongoing public inquiry, paying full and fair financial redress to those impacted, and establishing a meaningful restorative justice programme, all of which are important elements of the ongoing transformation of Post Office.”
