I had an express delivery scheduled to be delivered today. I stayed in the house the whole day to receive the package. I never got the delivery to my front door. I have cameras in my house. I went to the mailbox and there was a notice of delivery. Was I supposed to wait for the package outside near the mailbox the whole day? What a waste of my time. I wasn’t even able to do an electronic signature. Next time please do your job and deliver the package to the front door. It will make a huge difference in the service. Now I need to either do a redelivery of the package (which I would not as I am not staying another day waiting for nothing) or do a pick up of the package directly to the postal service spending time and money in gasoline for something that was already paid for. I think paying over $35 for a one day delivery is already expensive enough. Feeling annoyed and disappointed! ☹️

Would’ve been nice to know I’m supposed to get a call when my mail key is ready. I was told to come back a week later to get my mail key. Given an exact date and I came on the exact date. I wait in a long line after work for them to tell me it’s not yet ready and to wait for a call. Inefficient and waste of time. Update they gave me 3 mail keys the next day and I like the extras so I bumped to 3 stars.
