Agent refused to give me a receipt despite me repeatedly asking for one saying I had inventory disappear post drop off there. She said the most she could do is scan them but couldn't provide a receipt. Scanned them in front of me one by one and still my customers are complaining and the tracking says not received yet by USPS. How can your agents refuse to provide a receipt? Why does inventory keep disappearing? Why doesn't the tracking say received when the packages were beeped in one by one in front of me. Very disappointing to be treated like cattle in a line and refused a receipt when dropping off my company's inventory. I would like a manager to reach out.
