- JSJoe Stephens2 days ago5.0Travon was awesome in the passport department! after making the mistake to trying to get it online, I went to Palatine post office. It was incredibly fast and easy and alot cheaper. Thank you Travon
- RLR L3 days ago5.0The counter employee (while attending to the typical person who wasn't in line and who only came to ask a quick question, which turned into thousands of questions and a waste of time); as I was saying, the counter employee, while waiting for that person to finish checking their email, made the wise decision to attend to the next person in line, who was only going to drop off a package.
- ZZZaphodAug 25, 20265.0I'm not sure if I can get it to you or not but I don't know if you want to go to the store or something else
- NCNazar CAug 20, 20261.0Disgusting place, don't ever use their services. They lost my package, and the woman inside, when I asked for help, just told me that the package was delivered and that they didn't care what happened next.
