Mailed an international package. The US customs didn't like how I filled up the custom form. My package was returned to me. I fixed the form, filed the refund, no, my case is closed, I have no access to the international inquiry history page, not even a partial refund was given. I paid $130 for INTERNATIONAL mail that never crossed the border. I agree, I made a mistake on a custom form, keep the money for domestic shipping, but NO. And it's impossible to get a hold of a human being. USPS is horrible.

Had a package that I accidentally put the wrong address on. The courier and man at the office were more then happy to deliver it to the right address! Thank you again! I wish I would have received your name to write into this review!

The counter staff have always met my needs. I enter the post office doors very appreciative and thankful that my little piece of mail will get to a loved one clear across our country! I wonder if the negative comments I've read hang on a person's attitude of "half empty, woe is me."

Above and beyond the call of duty here. Express package had the wrong zip code on it so it ended up at a post office 50 miles away. When I called the Raton Post office Kelly helped me get the package to Raton the same day!
