- FRFatiha RobinsonJun 26, 20261.0Very rude and unprofessional lady behind the desk. I don’t think she wants to work there. Avoid this post office if you can.
- JJJayMay 28, 20261.0If I could leave zero stars, I would. The customer service was terrible. They are rude, unhelpful, and completely unprofessional. Easily one of the worst experiences I’ve had.
- TTTiffanyMay 14, 20262.0Now I understand working in customer service is tough, and the folks coming here can sometimes lose their patience from not getting help finding for their mail. That's no reason to be nasty to the rest of us! They only keep the employees with the worst attitude here. There were a couple really pleasant people over the last 10 years, then they removed them to other locations. The actual location NEVER answers the phone and now neither does the temple hills annex that the folks here constantly tell us to call because they don't have our packages that tell us they are ready for pick up here!! They usually only have one person on a Saturday working the window find everything! There should be one person just for packages because they know the delivery drivers no longer deliver packages!
- LBLoreta BarnesApr 24, 20261.0Worse customer service. Whenever it’s 4 pm the staff turnover is very rude and mean. They don’t want to help anyone with what we need. No rating needed, staff need to do better.
- EFEriona FinchMar 30, 20261.0Does not open on time. A crowd has formed outside and it is now 9:25 am... and we are still waiting!!! Hours state 9am-5pm. There is usually one clerk so expect the lines to be LONG and wait times to be HIGH. Supplies are often low in stock and your long wait in line may be in vain once you get to the counter. Some staff are courteous and others are rude. There is no consistently with the service.
