Me, no gripes at all with USPS. 99% gets shipped through Chicago and makes it over here then gets put in the Military postal system.

I only got mail delivered once in the last week. With that said, usps has scanned all the packages they were supposed to deliver as delivered even though I haven’t received them. It’s messed up.

Like a few others mentioned, it's been going on for months, long before the silly season started.
We've had a few packages 3-4 months ago that were simply lost and never recovered, on 3 separate occasions. I never got an explanation on any of it, no idea what happened or where it went. Had tracking numbers on all of it that eventually went dead. I eventually just got a notification they were sorry and to place another order. So I had to reorder everything.

No problems of lost packages since then but everything has been later than promised. I even paid for expedite shipping a couple of times and it still wasn't getting here any faster than normal. So I wouldn't recommend wasting money on that either.

Even had trouble with UPS back in June. Ordered a few car parts from Summit that were coming out of the Nevada warehouse. It's always here at my door in AZ the next day. 3 days go by and nothing. Check the tracking number and find out it was in Tennessee for some strange reason. When they realized it, they sent it back to the Ohio warehouse, lol. By the time it finally got back to me it was over a week and had traveled across the country twice.

I've gotten to the point this year I'm nervous about ordering anything and don't hold my breath on delivery times.

Looks like everybody's in the same boat from reading the info linked below.
I don't have much faith that anything will improve any time soon.


The post office seems to be right on time though as far as receiving bills!

I've likely shipped 50-60 items over the past few months and it's been all over the map the entire time. USPS and Canada Post alike have had huge clearing issues and delays in shipping, and FedEx has been messed up too from the 20 times I have used them. They are not paying out on claims or extremely poor service delays and they simply blame Covid.

Yeah everyone blames the beer virus for everything now. Getting tired of hearing that excuse.

We had two calls yesterday telling us that our mail had been returned to sender. The envelope had a sticker on it stating "undeliverable - mail could not be delivered as addressed". One of them was a bill from our utility company and we have lived at this same address for 20 plus years. Our newspaper hasn't been delivered the last two weeks. An order from ebay was supposed to have been delivered last Saturday. I would say the post office has a problem and we can't contact them about our mail because they won't answer their phone.

I had a USPS package that said it was delivered at mailbox if you tracked it.
It was Saturday and I was home waiting for it. It never made it.
So now I had to call the seller and tell him I didnt get it. It was from Heartbeat City.
They promptly resent the order UPS and I got it in two days.
They could have told me to get lost. Now thats customer service!!
Its kind of hard to plead your case when it showed delivered!!!

I currently have about 4 items in USPS limbo. One is not replaceable for the price I paid. I still trust they'll show up but likely not till January or later. USPS has been fine for me over the years except for 2 items that got lost. They eventually just showed up a year after they were expected.
Also, Is anyone able to view tracking on the USPS site? It seems they're asking to pay for "premium" tracking to see any detailed movement beyond ship date and expected arrival date.
