I give up. Just trying to get info is an exercise in futility. Listening to a robot ask me if I’d like to talk to a real agent and then presenting another long list of bullshit to choose from. The person that set this circumnavigational idiocy should be castrated and pissed on. No wonder folks are fleeing the post office

Have anyone ever received an email from a real postal employee and not the automated kind. Is there any type of USPS symbol or something in the email to let you know it's official and really from the post office from an inspector. Thanks Nia

I ordered something that should come in an envelope not a package Dec 3. It was on it's way until it got to Detroit 12/19. Says it's in transit but no updates. Last time this happened I sent forms w/ payment to another state for licenses. They found it a month and half later dumped in those trailers, just dumped, with a lot of other mail. Are they still busy handling fake ballots instead? We need to reroute to places that won't just let it sit there.

My package was in Detroit Mi headed to whitmore lake BUT I see this morning it is in Pittsburgh PA. This package has been trying to get to me since August 25th. i compared prices this am to UPS and i see i could have sent this same package for $3 more and I would have it. If any other company would be conducting business like this- they would be going out of business. Who can help, not my local post office staff, no response from email to USPS?

the computers i ordered for my kids so they could do their schoolwork from home (even though i desperately want them to be inschool:), have been swirling around the detroit distribution center for 9 days! I will probably never get them, I have resigned myself to the fact that they were most likely stolen.

I sent a certifed, priority mail letter to a state government agency 4 miles from the Fort Street annex over 2 weeks ago. This was a time sensitive matter and the post office cannot explain how it arrived at Fort Street and has taken 12 days "in transit" to the location 4 miles away. An inquiry was launched 9 days ago . . . nothing. They aren't responding to emails to using the service number. I believe that a postal worker stole this piece of mail because the addressee represents the interests of minorities. There is no other logical explanation.

Amazon sent a package through the Postal Service. I ordered the item on June 18th. It arrived at the Detroit Post Office on June 23rd. I still do not have the package. I live in the Metro Detroit Area. They are now promising to deliver it between July 6 - 8th. Seriously people. The pony express would have been faster. Don't bother calling either. It's just two freaking spools of thread!. Get your shit together people.

I mailed a Priority Mail envelope with tracking number from Baltimore to Detroit on June 24. The receipt said the expected delivery date in downtown Detroit was June 27. Today is July 2. It arrived at Detroit Distribution Center June 26 and was sent to Pinckney, Michigan!!! It ended up back at Detroit Disribution Center this morning July 2. What's going on up there??? This same type of poor service occurred previously at the end of May. I will send my next "Priority Mail" by UPS or FedEx!

Tracking # 92001902551566000103280908 In tracking this package that I have been waiting 23 days for I see that the last place it got to was your post office. I received emails all weekend that it would be delivered on April 20 and today April 21 I have not received the package and I am no longer receiving emails. Plus the post office has lost 4 pieces pieces of mail that we have sent out pay out bills. So why would I bother buying stamps to save the post office when I can't receive a package and our checks are never making it to their destination.

Mine is something I ordered. Cost almost $100. Now I’ve had to go out to get disposable versions of what I had ordered. Spent over $300 on that! Plus the company I bought from already took my $100! I’m not going to have money to go get more!

I LIVE IN AN APARTMENT IN THE 48207 ZIP CODE AREA. OUR OUTGOING MAIL HAS NOT BEEN TAKEN OUT, GOING ON TWO WEEKS NOW. WE ARE RECEIVING OUR INCOMING MAIL TO OUR MAIL BOX. I'VE HAD TO REWRITE MY HEALTH INSURANCE CHECK AND TAKE THE CHECK TO THE PLACE OF BUSINESS IN ORDER NOT TO BE PENALIZED. MY COMCAST CABLE BILL CHECK HAS YET TO BE RECEIVED ALONG WITH OTHER BILLS WHICH ARE NOW PAST DUE. I ALSO HAVE OTHER PERSONAL MAIL THAT HAS NOT BEEN RECEIVED. OUR REGULAR CARRIER HAS RETIRED. I SURE DO MISS HER. I'VE LEARNED A LESSON "DO NOT PUT MY OUT GOING MAIL IN THERE ANYMORE!!

This has got to be the worst location of any post office. They loose track of mail at least one a week. You pay $24.00 for express shipping and it just sits there for at least two days before they even get to it. Pay a few more dollars and use UPS or FEDEX.

Some of the coldest and rudest people work there. I was there on a Friday morning a couple of weeks ago, and there was only one clerk available -- and this is the main post office, too -- and she was arguing with a customer about counting money for a money order. Another person in line asked her if there was anyone else available to help, and was told (rudely) "NO, but there are other post offices!" If I said that to a customer, I would be fired. How dare they treat customers like that. And, how dare they only have one clerk available on a Friday morning with a line of people waiting. And, their customer parking lot is always ALWAYS full, but not with customers' cars. This is the worst post office I have ever been to.
