Business Store Front

This contracted USPS location is the absolute worst. I walked in and no one was at the counter I had to yell "hello " because there wasn't a bell or anything to alert them of my presence. When the guy came to the counter, there wasn't any type of greeting. I was mailing a prepaid postage package and provided him with the barcode. He then said that I had to pay $2. I inquired what the charge was for since it was a prepaid label. He flatly said pay it or don't. I paid it because I didn't want the hassle of trying to locate an official USPS Post Office . I don't live in the area. Anyway, another customer walked in while I was there and was trying to engage him and he completely ignored him as well. I filed a complaint with the United States Postal Service, and was told that since it's a privately owned business, he can charge additional fee for printing the label but at the post office they do not charge additional fee for prepaid package labels. If you value being treated with respect, don't patronize this business. After my transaction was completed, he didn't say thank you or anything. TRASH SERVICE AT IT'S FINEST

The actual price of mailing -- $3.07 per envelope.

They rip customers off. See comment and pictures. I mailed 3 envelopes that weighed just under 8 oz each. The clerk sold me 24 forever stamps for $16.80. (Or 70 cents per stamp, with 8 stamps on each envelope, for $5.60 per envelope). I thought the price was high, and when I got home, I checked the post office's website. The price for 1st class mail for large envelopes weighing under 8 oz is $3.07. The total cost should have been $9.21, not $15.60. I went back and saw that they did in fact put 8 forever stamps on the envelope. I confronted the clerk and the owner. The clerk said they just sold me forever stamps and that was the correct number. He had no response to the printout from the post office showing this was wrong. The owner said that they don't have $3.07 stamps. I am shocked that a mailing center does not have stamps in various denominations. (Three $1 stamps, a five-cent stamp, and 2 one-cent stamps would have done it.) But even so, I asked him why he didn't just put on FIVE forever stamps. (Forever stamps are currently 68 cents each, and that would be a total of $3.40, well above the $3.07 price.) He said I could go to the post office if I wanted that. Bottom line: they are buying forever stamps at 68 cents (or perhaps less), selling them at 70 cents, and putting on more stamps than are needed. They made at least 48 cents on this transaction (24 stamps x 2 cents each). Even if they did not have the correct postage -- itself a problem -- they should have made at most 30 cents (15 stamps x 2 cents each). To gain the extra 18 cents, they were willing to add more stamps than was necessary and cost me $6.39 more than what I should have paid. The owner won't admit he is doing this and presumably won't stop. If they are willing to impose large costs on customers so that they could make a small additional profit, they are fundamentally dishonest. I would never use this shop again.

Great service / Shipping & full USPS Postal Location! This is a great place! If you need something boxed and shipped, any USPS postal services, or need a PO box - this is a wonderful choice. All the staff who work here are super quick, and provide knowledgeable super service. I highly recommend! Note: No Credit Cards or Debit cards accepted for the USPS Postal services. Cash & checks only. Plus, Saturday hours are 9am-12noon (http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/aURnWPL13CFNf9ICobpZLQ?select=pTtoe19oClFBXVLofO666A)

No cell phones. And wait to be called.

When I got home last night, there was one of those notices next to my intercom saying "sorry we…read moremissed you", with their address to go and pick up my package. This is my first time at this UPS. Well, when I walked in today around 12:35 pm, I was nicely greeted by Edwin. He was very pleasant with a nice smile. They also had two other employees working there. He wanted to know how he could help me, so I told him why I was there. He asked to see my ID, looked me up in their system and couldn't find my name. He asked if I had a tracking number and I told him no. I forgot it at home. I asked him to check one more time and he did by telling me that maybe it's in another UPS store. I thanked him for it and walked out. Now I need to go search and see where my package is. Hopefully it's not lost somewhere in the wilderness:-)) They offer many different services here: printing, shipping, copy making services, scanning, to take your photo for your passport/ID, faxing, laminating, P.O. Box mailboxes, notary, shredding, even Amazon returns. It's a very interesting UPS. Shaped kind of like zig-zag. Store was clean, everything was nicely, fully stocked and organized. Depending what you buy, everything has its own price and value. People keep complaining about their parking being full, cramped, but I have been inside this shopping center few times, and never had a problem with their parking. Thank you Edwin, and UPS!

This is a five star review for the staff at Studio City Mailboxes, NOT for Fed Ex shipping which…read morecreated the need for so much intervention on their part. I had important documents including a driver's license that needed to be shipped to my son in England, which I sent to be held for pick up. When my son arrived at the pick-up location, he was told by the staff in England that there was a special code he needed or they couldn't release the package (it was sent no signature required, addressed to him, and he had ID.) Knowing how impossible Fed Ex is to deal with, I went in person to Studio City Mailboxes to ask for help. One of the two employees on duty spent over an hour working with me on this before calling Michelle, the manager, who remembered me sending the package and said she would work on it even though she was not presently on duty in the store. It took several days to resolve because no one but Michelle and the staff at Studio City Mailboxes seemed to care or be willing to make any effort to resolve the issue. Michelle spent DAYS contacting Fed Ex, keeping me informed of her process, and even called my son in England to make sure he was ultimately successful picking up his package. Michelle then gave me a courtesy refund of the $70 charge for Fed Ex. I hope that Studio City Mailboxes was not out of pocket for the time and effort they made to resolve an important issue. This is what customer service by humans, not a chatbot, looks like. Both Michelle and her colleague understood the problem (which was not of their making) and the importance of correcting it, and did everything they could think of until it was resolved. They easily could have shrugged and given me the phone number for Fed Ex (which no human answers) but they never put it on me to solve this or to pay for inadequate service. I've been coming to Studio City Mailboxes for years, I've seen the staff, especially Michelle, deal with difficult customers and frustrating situations, and staff has always been courteous, professional, and proactive. I can't express my appreciation enough, staff's work and attitude is why I will keep coming back, 100%

FedEx Office Print & Ship Center - The poster that they helped me to laminate. It was 2 pages; and that is why there is a long line in between. Still, came out nice.

I am surprised I haven't done a review on this particular FedEx and I live literally 7 minutes away…read more(driving distance). This is a fully equipped store that handles everything from A to Z. They do a heck of a great job! Been there few times, and their service along with all the items/products never fails. IMPECCABLE! They do Printing, Scanning, Packaging, Shipping, Copying, and a lot more.. Walked in yesterday at 4:30pm and got a genuine, nice greeting with a soft spoken voice who's name is Jane. Right away I asked her if I could use the restroom and she ran to get the key to let me in. Isn't that something? Other people will NOT let you use their restroom. Regardless whether you buy something or not. I needed to laminate a poster that I had, send a big package, buy 8X10 pack of paper, and needed to make a banner of this logo that I liked at a restaurant. Jane and Bertha were just AMAZING in every way. So kind and helpful. I also bought a small bottle of water. They literally have everything, and even a station for people who would like to work on computers, or just simply do some personal work, read, or whatever they are in for. A lot of items on clearance. Parking is shared with a lot of businesses and the restroom along with the store was SPOTLESS CLEAN! I have used their restroom in the past. Always clean. Every item has its own value and price. You can never go wrong with this particular FedEx! Thank you all very much!

This used to be my go-to FedEx location because it's close to home. I've always had great…read moreexperiences with a deaf gentleman who works there. He is incredibly kind and always does his best to help. Unfortunately, my experience on July 3rd was completely different. As soon as I walked in, I explained that I needed help printing a certificate. The employee, a white male without a name tag, immediately pointed me toward the self-service machines and said, "Self print is that way." I explained that I needed to print a certificate and did not know how to use the machines. I simply asked if he could help me feed the paper. He immediately seemed annoyed and said, "If I have to do it, I have to charge you." Of course I understood that there would be a charge. I came to a business expecting to pay for a service. His tone was completely unnecessary. I also knew they were closing in about 10 minutes, so I understood that they were trying to finish up for the day. However, there were still customers inside, and I only needed to print one certificate. While I was waiting for my retrieval code, he told me that if I did not receive it within two minutes, I would have to come back Monday because they were closed for July 4th. I understood the time constraint, but again, the way he spoke to me was unnecessarily aggressive. When he printed the certificate, it came out much larger than it should have. I explained that I had printed the exact same certificate at another FedEx location and it came out correctly. He told me that adjusting the size would require an additional charge, which I paid without any issue. The next copy then printed in black and white. When I pointed this out, he blamed me and said he had not changed anything. I explained that on the original certificate, which had printed correctly at the other FedEx location, I had only changed a word or two because of a typo. I did not alter the format, sizing, or anything else about the certificate. Despite explaining this, he continued to act as though the printing issues were my fault. After another attempt, the certificate finally printed correctly. I understand that employees can be ready to close, especially before a holiday, and I am not expecting special treatment. However, there is still a professional and respectful way to communicate with customers. I was never rude to him, yet from the moment I walked in, I was treated like an inconvenience for simply asking for assistance with a service I was willing to pay for. I have had good experiences at this location in the past, but this interaction was enough to make me take my business elsewhere. I recommend the FedEx locations in Burbank or Toluca Lake instead. Hopefully management addresses the customer service at this location because the attitude I and many others have experienced was completely unnecessary. Upon reading more reviews I am pretty confident it was the same rude employee at the front desk.
