- PPPRBAug 7, 20261.0On Mon., 08/04/2026, based on my experience, the operation of this USPS location is sub-standard. Do not be fooled that the location will render a quality experience because it is Oak Park, IL. I had a simple transaction which was to get a refund on an USPS money order which I had purchased. I had the original money order in hand. The retail counter clerks (a young male & older female) were not very customer service oriented. The young male clerk was extremely unprofessional and should not be in a customer facing position. As I saw the male clerk interact with some customers before me, I was hoping I would not draw him as it seemed he had an attitude. As luck would have it, I did. I explained to him what was needed. He responded he had no cash, his co-worker may but you have to go back in line & wait to ask her. I complied and waited my turn for the female clerk. When my turn arrived, the female clerk seemed to be “like a deer in headlights” regarding the request. She eventually responded that she had no cash for a refund since it was Monday morning and to come back at 3pm as she might have cash by that time. I responded to her that this was ridiculous that the USPS was so ill-prepared to conduct business on a normal weekday as I walked off. At this point, the young male clerk, who was now helping someone else, decided to reinsert himself into the issue as he made some “smart-aleck”/ snide responses to my comment. To avoid sinking down to his level of ignorance, I calmed myself to continue to walk away. As I was walking out, another customer that was also at the retail counter, who observed the clerks behavior, commented to me that it was uncalled for. Needless to say, I was able to complete the refund of the money order at a USPS in Wheaton, IL without any trouble and a smile. Anyone reading this review will be able to “read between the lines” regarding the difference of experience b/t the USPS locations.
