We have the solution to UAA costs. I have same problem. I am buyer on eBay. Mail too. Ive lived here over15 yrs. New carrier past couple months. I put in about 6 complaints at all levels. Today I came home to a pkg with a note on it :Marcia Sills has no forwarding address in system Provide it or it will get returned to sender.
How do I get Usps to cover shipping on the 10 pkg they already sent back to sender? OMG Thanks. I would like to know how a signature confirmation letter sent to the front office of an apartment complex with the correct address listed on their website and even listed when I lived there, but yet they can't deliver it.
I mean what is up with the carriers in Austin, Tx they have some of the worst issues I have ever dealt with there. I sincerely don't understand it. I should have used ups or fed ex with signature confirmation. I just don't get why there is so many issues with this area.
It's just flat out horrible. I remember even trying to call any post office in that area and NO ONE would even answer the phone, they would just let it ring and ring and ring and this is at all hours of the day, no one will answer any phone there. How is this good customer service? The house we just moved into has been receiving mail since They said we must move our mailbox across the street, even though the first 6 houses before us have their mailboxes on their property.
So we are supposed to cut the post out of the concrete and install it across the street. This is in Ada, Oklahoma. The supervisor just keeps repeating herself, and I just don't understand. After getting off the phone with the supervisor, I saw our carrier go flying by our house.
I'm dumbfounded by this new law. Thank you for your message. Good afternoon. This has increased A lot with our company. I call the customer and its a good address. This is costing the company a lot of money. Can you tell me all the reasons for non deliverable sticker to be put on an envelope but its a good address. I read that if a customer moves and doesn't do it on line this may be why.
Is this correct? I am supposed to get my package today but it says it is undeliverable even though all of the information is correct. I was checking my tracking and it said undeliverable as addressed but the thing is that i have put the correct address so what should i do? Hi Angie, thank you for your message. Says it's undeliverable but never even left original shipping state pennsylvania. I'm in Illinois. How can i get my package!?
I was expecting a package today. Unfortunately it was addressed to my old home. However, we did notify USPS and requested a month ago to forward all of our correspondence to the new address. It has happened so far but apparently not with tis package. The tracking says "Undeliverable as addressed" and that is being "returned if proper information is available" Why is it being returned and not forwarded to my new address?
