- CSCruz SikSep 13, 20251.0Have to wait 2 weeks for one package because they just have it sitting there for 4 days
- PRPeyton RademacherSep 5, 20251.0Delivered my package to an address with a different zip code
- LSLauren StanleyAug 8, 20252.0We had to leave for a month for an internship over the summer, and we knew we’d have a title to our motorcycle coming so I went in to put our mail on hold. End of the month when we came back my husband went to pick it up and they said they didn’t have ANY of our mail for the month, she was snippy and rude. So I went in assuming i was just a mistake from the names since I signed the paperwork for it. The clerk didn’t take my name, ID, or address, went back for 10 seconds and came back saying that they didn’t have it, and when I asked if she could check again with all the information she came back in 20 seconds and said nothings there. I asked what I should do because it had a lot of mail and she said “I don’t know, I can’t do anything about it” and when I said that we had a vehicle title she said “K…” with such an attitude like it wasn’t a big deal, like we can’t drive the vehicle till we have our title. I asked if there was anyone who could help with it, and she said “he's not here, he stepped out.” Okay, can I wait for him then I asked, but nope told me he’d be back later and I’ll be called. I called the USPS customer service number and had a service request finished within 20 minutes, apologies for the staffs rudeness, and 2-3 day time frame to locate our MONTHs worth of mail and motorcycle title, but it had to be directed to the local post office again anyway so I guess I just don’t get my mail. Horrible, rude, lazy service. Still haven’t been contacted. UPDATE: got a call front manager after I put in a service request online, not from my request in person. Said the clerk would be delt with and still said the title isn’t with them and we’ll have to talk to the people that sent it. He was overall polite.
- MTManuel TubandtFeb 8, 20231.0All of my recent packages were delayed even though it was out on delivery. Literally the dumbest thing ever
- TTTracerDec 28, 20221.0Been waiting on a small package for awhile got a notification saying they attempted the delivery but that the driveway and front porch weren't shoveled...they've been cleared all day long, they could put the mail in the mailbox but couldn't put the package in the mailbox or on the front porch that was cleared, very lazy and will be calling in the morning!!!
