- KWKuktan WongDec 19, 20251.0This post office employee very rude. After you applied USA passport, they used customer cell phone forced the customer give their post office good grade. It is so ridiculous.
- WAWadie AhmadDec 9, 20251.0Bad service they have a post on the door in front of the window for a passport walk-in. When I got there the management told me we don’t do that but they have the sign posted up. She felt like she didn’t want to do her job.
- HLHuiqing LOct 2, 20251.0The staff were extremely rude and unprofessional. The clerk refused to communicate, dismissed me, and told me that walk-ins had priority over appointments. The worst experience.
- KCKarmen ChenSep 24, 20251.0While doing my passport the lady got impatient with me, and I could almost hear the phrase “are you dumb” coming out from her mouth. She corrected herself after almost finishing that sentence. And after that she told me not to question her anymore and just do what I was told. Very rude much.
