I took time before writing this because I genuinely support small businesses, but after weeks of reflection, I feel it’s necessary.
I’ve been a loyal customer of this store for over five years, regularly visiting to handle important shipments. While I’ve had minor issues in the past that were resolved, my most recent experience changed my perspective entirely.
I paid for two-day delivery on an important rent check, and it was not delivered on time. After filing a claim with assistance from the owner, Mr. Pickles, I waited three weeks with no response. When I followed up in person, I was repeatedly told there had been a delivery attempt at 1:00 AM—which is clearly unrealistic. Even a UPS driver present at the time confirmed that deliveries do not occur that late.
After further review, it was finally acknowledged that the package had not been shipped until the next business day, contradicting what I was initially told. Despite this, there was no real accountability or apology for the misinformation.
Additionally, during the interaction, I was told to “calm down” despite remaining respectful and professional, which I found inappropriate and dismissive.
I understand this is a franchise and that claims go through UPS, but many other store owners I’ve spoken with said they would have prioritized customer retention in a situation like this—especially for a long-time customer.
Communication has also declined. Calls frequently go unanswered, which was not the case before.
At this point, I no longer feel valued as a customer. I will be taking my business elsewhere, even if it means going out of my way, to receive the level of service and respect I expect.
