Shipping Through the US Postal Service - 01/17/18 04:02 PM
Hi Folks,
Thought I'd share some experiences here. Since we relocated to the West Coast, we have had one problem after another with mail delivery here. We have had packages delivered opened (empty envelope), delivered to the wrong apt (thank you nice neighbors) and not delivered at all. Complaining and filing complaints to postal authorities results in: a)complete denial, b). blank stares, and c) b.s. answers a four year old wouldn't believe. Our carrier, despite being informed he went to the wrong building, couldn't care less.
In our experience, other areas are better or worse, which leads me to believe the problem is with local postal mgmt and personnel. We had excellent service in VT.
In future, we are only using Fed EX and UPS. Also folks, beware of using the cheapest UPS shipping as they ship to your local post office, and then your carrier delivers it ( or not).
Thanks for letting me vent.
