Have not received mail for the past two weeks. This is highly unusual since I normally receive mail almost daily. Visited post office today to file compliant. Postal employee found several pieces of my mail undelivered but suggested I return Monday there may be other mail she did not find.

And don’t tell me your mail out everyday cause that’s BS, have not seen any mail trucks in our subdivision at all this week I gave important stuff in mail . Not pleased with the service that you all are not providing that I pay for, also will report it to the post master general . I would like to hear something to tell me what gas happened to my mail,are your mail people throwing my mail away, how bout you pay my bills that I am not receiving. Done with my Rand . This post office is being run by incompetent people. You gave one job to do and that’s get the mail delivered . Disgrace to the max ,

Phone number isn't a live number - after all the prompts, it's a fax so you can never reach a live human. Service is terrible - lost packages, no help - just worthless. Might as well be a 3rd world mail system.

I am only receiving mail at my business once a week, questioned the delivery girl last week & was told too many people out, and they be tired! Really!! My business has time sensitive documents (attorneys). I need my mail more than one a week. This has been an ongoing problem, when our regular person is moved to another area & we get someone new.

I am sick and tired of packages and MAIL that contains bills and highly important information not being delivered. Packages my children order that consistently say door is unaccessible. When clearly I live on a Main Street with carport and front door open to the F’ing world. Your Gretna, La office location 70053 is the worst in the entire world. Delivering to wrong addresses, stealing packages, and not having mail delivered for over a week is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE!!!!! I DO NOT WANT AN APOLOGY OR EXCUSE. I WANT A PHONE CALL FROM SOMEONE THAT IS 1/2 WAY INTELLIGENT AND WILL RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. I’ve had this problem many times, WAY TOO LONG, have called, emailed and what happened? I received a phone call from someone that couldn’t speak correctly over a MONTH LATER. REALLY???? I would think the USPS would at least hire someone past the 5th Grade. When you visit the Gretna Post Office they won’t even let you see someone of any authority, give you an attitude (maybe because I’m white and judge me because of my color, then tell you “Oh it’s on the truck and you’ll receive today”. HELLO USPS!!! IT is 6:50 AND NO MAIL, NO PACKAGES AND NOT ONE DAMN MAIL TRUCK SEEN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD SINCE 8:00 AM. OH AMD I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AROUND TO SEE WHERE THEY ARE!!! I’m sick and I’m tired of your lies, theft and IGNORANCE. FORGOT YOU BEING “A Hero like a Nurse or Doctor that saves lives “.

I feel your pain. Yesterday I was expecting two packages at work and nothing happened until they updated after 5pm that they couldn’t access it. I was sitting at my desk at the time. I usually see a mail truck 2-3 times a day but didn’t see it once yesterday. My boss’s mail at home is hit or miss. He’ll go 3 days with no mail then get mail but not the stuff he was supposed to get the days before. That stuff shows up a week later. Thank goodness for informed delivery. You also can’t call and complain the number just goes to a customer service line that says it can’t help you because of covid. Ugh. Someone needs to investigate the post office in Gretna.

Post office in Gretna keeps delivering my packages to wrong address . some from ebay and medical supplies bought off internet .ebay is probably going to tell me stop ordering because of refunds . and a old address from 3 years ago keeps getting my insurance information. I put change of address in but that didn't work either . really getting agervated. and when I call post office back like employee says they send me to fax machine .

It's such a shame to only receive your mail 2 to 3 times per week. 406 Gretna Blvd is the worst! Why is the mail behind? This has been going on since October 2019. I've made several complaints or concerns. All I want is my mail. There are good workers there, but too many lazy people that shouldn't have the job. Gretna residents you have to voice your concerns to get a resolution. MChristmas is ruined why because my informed mail stated that on last Friday that I would receive my checks. Today is Tuesday & no mail. Thanks a lot Gretna Postal Service. No checks because no one is checking the routes to see if the carriers are doing their jobs. The phone number to the post office transfers you to a fax machine. I'm waiting now for approximately 50 minutes on (800) number. I went to the post office yesterday 3 people were making complaints. Get it together Gretna Blvd you get an F!

Scheduled my 1st ever package pick up using the online services. Packages still sit here on scheduled pick up date at 10:00pm and were never picked up. Received your 3 text messages confirming my pickup request.......what now? Do I waste another shipping day letting them sit there hoping they might get picked up tomorrow?

Went to pick up a package on 27 Jan 2018. Waited 45 minutes (15 Min. in line then 30 Min. waiting while the employee(s) searched for it. The supervisor took over, but couldn't locate the package. They said they would call me when it is found and I could come back in to pick it up. P.S. The 15 minutes waiting in line was due to absence of any employee for 5 minutes, then only one returned with 12 people waiting in line. Are they concerned about patrons? Not in my opinion.

The best mail man to work in my area is named Charlie. He's the regular mail man for my neighborhood and delivers my packages correctly with integrity and DOES NOT THROW MY PACKAGES like the other mail men that deliver in my area. Charlie deserves a raise for doing his job properly and never letting negativity affect his job performance.

They never answer the phone, they have lost 2 $100 packages of mine and they don't care they are rude and most of them do not know what they are doing. How they are allowed to lose your packages that you paid for is beyond me.
