Miss Lisa was super sweet and caring! I called asking about a package that got lost and i hadn’t gotten any update about and I had to make a case. She got back to me less than 30 minutes later and located my package and she was very nice about it! Miss Lisa is great!

Went to Petersburg Va Franklin Street Post Office to apply for passport with a friend. The employee named Joi was the most pleasant person. She was very patient and very helpful. She was helping many people and was very time efficient. And the other ladies at the counter greeted everyone with a smile and all had positive attitudes. Giving thanks to all these wonderful people that made my friends complicated situation feel less stressful.

My package was delivered to the wrong address as we do not have a front desk, reception area, or mailroom. It and the other packages were marked delivered an hour and a half before they were actually delivered as shown in the pictures. And of course USPS makes it super difficult to report a claim.
