Thread: USPS Trouble

USPS warns of late mail delivery after significant revenue loss amid coronavirus pandemic | Fox News

Not good news at all. I know many if not all are dependent on USPS for a variety of goods. Lately it has been hit and miss for me with USPS, several orders for fly/jig tying including Amazon are either late or don't show up at all. Tracking shows packages reach a DC and then no activity???

Frustrating to say the least.....

We have had some packages disappear of late as well. One weak point seems to be the handoff between a carrier such as UPS and the USPS. The tracking seems to break down at that point as well. I’d put my money on the USPS - the other carriers have a high reliability, but things might be better in your neck of the woods. It is frustrating.

Yes it’s been terrible lately. I tracked some packages from carrier to my city USPS and then they stayed there for a week!!! Should of had them the next day.

Just had a package sent to me in Ms. went fro Ky to In to Ga to Al then showing delivered to me in Alabama. That was from shipper to FedEx then to mail center in Ga. friend has to big shipments of stuff messed up like this. It’s crazy.

Off topic here but the German owned DHL is the best logistics company out there. They don't mess around, very impressive service and tracking.

Disagree. DHL is terrible. Always late. Can't track packages. Says tracking number can't be found. I a seller doesn't use Fed Ex, I don't order. USPS isn't much better. They are regularly 2-3 days beyond their delivery dates.

I've been using DHL since 1980....never had any issues with them at all. Haven't had any bad luck with UPS....and very rarely have an issue with USPS. I have had packages delivered from Japan in as little as 3 days with USPS.....so I really have no complaints with any of them except if I have to file an insurance claim with USPS....which is rare.......depending on what day....week, or month it is, that can be an issue for me....LOL.

Well, I have to eat my own words. Don't taste worth a dang, either. Had a package leave Chicago on 7/16 via Fed Ex. Tried tracking it and they tell me to expect delivery on 7/26. So much for fast, reliable service.

Don’t you just hate that? LOL In these times I guess we can expect some problems time to time, but overall FedEx and UPS are pretty darn reliable.

Yeah, they don't go down very well. Next time I decide to spout off I'll keep my salt shaker handy to season them when they come back to bite me.
