⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Very patient, thorough and kind. Ben was very helpful, even knowledgeable about correct area codes when I had the wrong one. He was very calm despite the growing line behind me. Thank you for helping me mail gifts to my nieces and nephews. I will take my parcels there every time I need to send anything. Keep up the great customer service!🙌👍

I had to chase the mailman about 5-6 blocks and all the way back to the post office because he delivered mail that was supposed to go to MY BUSINESS! I told him the situation. He said he would go back and fix it. Never did! DO YOUR JOB RIGHT OR NOT AT ALL!

The mail lady lost my Social Security letter with my personal information inside. She denied that she lost it and laughed in my face. Now she is not delivering my packages on time and uses the excuse that the mail box was unaccessable.
She put the wrong mail in our box and drops people's mail outside on the ground. Lazy mean woman. If she doesn't like her job maybe she should find a new one!!!
