When I first arrived, the notary wasn’t there, and a few younger customers were waiting outside for her. They mentioned she was supposed to be back by now. When she finally returned, she left again shortly after, and they had to wait all over again for Grace to come back.
I was already at one of the kiosks scanning my own packages when another customer came in carrying a large, heavy box. She was struggling to get the scanner to work at the Amazon kiosk and politely asked the associate, Priscilla, for help. Priscilla said, “The scanner reaches all the way to the floor,” but didn’t offer to assist, even though there were no other customers waiting. The woman had to drop her box on the floor and try scanning it herself, clearly frustrated but still calm. When it didn’t work, she told Priscilla, who replied, “Maybe you can pick it up and bring it closer.” The woman eventually got it scanned and was tapping the screen in a way that you could tell she was annoyed with the lack of customer service but not aggressively.
After that, I finished my own kiosk returns, but one of my packages said I needed assistance at the counter. When I went up, Priscilla seemed annoyed that I asked for help, insisted it should be done at the kiosk, and only scanned it after I asked twice. Then she told me she couldn’t give me a receipt ...until I asked why not, and she suddenly said, “Never mind,” and printed one.
While helping me fax a paper, Priscilla started talking to another associate, Grace, complaining about the customer who had just left mocking how she tapped on the screen and how she dropped her box "reallyy hard". It was unprofessional and uncomfortable to overhear them.
Later, I asked about returning TikTok packages, and Grace corrected Priscilla on a few things, including that the poly mailers are included and shouldn’t be charged for. Then their fax machine turned out to be broken, and another customer behind me was upset and explained to Grace that she had been told it would be fixed today after being down since yesterday. I agreed to have my document scanned instead, but it cost twice as much, and Grace said they couldn’t honor the fax price even though the fax wasn’t working. At that point I opted to go to my usual UPS.
This isn’t the first time I’ve seen poor customer service at this location. On a previous visit, an older customer was visibly frustrated because the staff refused to help him directly at the counter. Instead, they insisted on “teaching him” to use the kiosk when he had clearly said he didn’t want to use it. He just wanted someone to help him the traditional way, but they wouldn’t.
I’m not sure if UPS is training employees to push customers to use the kiosks and avoid assisting them, but if that’s the case, it needs to be reevaluated. If not, then the staff at this location need serious retraining on professionalism and customer care. Every time I’ve been here, the service has been consistently poor and dismissive and based on the reviews its a common problem. From now on, I’ll continue going to my usual UPS location, where the employees are always polite, helpful, and treat customers with respect.
