the man there are SOOOO RUDEEE!!!!! But there is one lady that is so nice Customer service was terrible read more

This is the third time this post office has closed early, which is unacceptable. Today, I was not allowed to enter the building, even though it was still within posted business hours. A man stood at the door blocking entry, claiming to be an employee but not in uniform, which was unprofessional. The manager was extremely rude and closed the office 20 minutes early. She took my packages, told me to place them in the bin, and would not let me inside. As a result, none of my three packages were scanned, I was not given a receipt, and there is no tracking update in the system. This location has repeatedly failed to meet basic service standards. read more

Came In to ask for a stop mail form and this jerk name Paul came out without saying anything all very uptight unfriendly unprofessional, you name it that's all the above, He gave me a form and I ask for a pen, and this jerk stated that that's my responsibility to have a pen, are you kidding me ? I know they might be short staff, but don put anyone like PAUL, with no personality, no proper training in customer service in dealing with the paying customers who pays the P.O . Place PAUL in custodial service, where he deals with garbage, and far away from contact with customers! read more

Staff is so helpful and efficient. Noticed that there seems to less staff so wait time is longer.

The employees work very hard. I have always been treated professionally. The problem Is the Chicago Admin overseeing this part of the Northwest Suburbs. This post office needs more employees, the building needs significant repairs and Chicago could care less. I am not an employee nor do I have relatives that work for the Post Office. I have visited this location dozens of times over the past 5 years. read more

So I just went to pick up a roll of stamps. It was 4:45, they close at 5. There were 3 people in front of me and 6 people behind me, The singular attendant (Paul) decided he wasn't gonna take care of customers and count his drawer instead. Took him about 10 minutes. Then we he started to take care of the rest of us he wasn't accepting cash any more since he had already counted his drawer. Not only did we have to wait, me and the customer in front of me wanted to pay cash and could not. I could only assume 1 or 2 people behind me were gonna try and use cash as well. Very poor customer service read more

They are SO rude here! They talk to you like you are a bother, specifically Paul. He held his hand up to me and spoke in a very unsettling tone. I was also told I could not buy stamps here and to go online- after a 15 minute wait. Ridiculous! read more

Paul is so rude. So slow. If there's 5 people in line you're looking at a 45 minute wait. Bring snacks, and don't you dare walk up to the line until you're called.0 read more

This post office is the slowest post office on the planet. There's only one lady behind the counter.

5- Stars for counter service as Moung was lovely, kind, and cost conscious of the best rate to help me send a package. 3-stars for the out of service self-kiosk for the last 3-4 days as I needed to wait in line when it's much easier for me to send my own packages with the kiosk. Overall, clean location with friendly postal workers when needed. read more

This is a great example why the private sector thrives and US Postal Service is nearly going bankrupt. People working here are extremely slow. Most of the time only one person working behind the counter and the line is nearly to the exit door. read more

Service at this location is generally not good. There is usually one, sometimes two attendants. On Saturday late morning, there was one attendant and a line. The attendant was pleasant and nice, even though she was very busy. The self service machine was not working and has not worked for weeks. If it was operational, it may reduce the line. This visit was much better than most. read more

I've been in Line 30 min only one person at the counter and there's 30 people in line with more coming in

I have visited USPS to return couple packages. Paul was super rude and aggressive. I didn't like his behaviour and attitude. Must be there are some issues with HR department who hired him. read more

I just witnessed and experienced the most rude person I have encountered in a long time. Older gentle man working behind the counter - ordering people to stop and go in an angry manor for no apparent reason, yelled at a high school kid trying to mail a package, no one in line understood exactly what the issue was, kid just left with his head down and package still in hand. I tried to mail my packaged and he had some issue with it and would not help me. Unbelievable experience. Off to a different post office. read more

What the heck is going on here ? This post office is the worse . I literally just had to walk out . The guy behind the counter is rude , & if he walked slower ( on purpose ) he'd be standing still . read more

Paul closed the door at 6:54 in front of my face with customers still inside. If there was a fire everyone would have to wait for Paul to open the door. I walked in when Paul came to open the door for a customer who was leaving. Paul refused to serve me , was mocking me when I said I will call the police on him and walked away when he served the customer before me and asked Mary to ring me up. He was rude, unprofessional and not a team player. His attitude was unacceptable. It was not 7 and Paul had no right to treat me the way he did!! May I add I walked in at 6:50 but I was packing my package. Unbelievable. Even a customer tried to open the door for me. This was embarrassing and uncalled for Paul should be fired!!!!! He's lucky I didn't call the police and I won't sue him for not serving me! Thank you Mary for being a kind human! read more

Easily accessible self-service area and navigable kiosk. Plenty of room to spread out and get your items in order.

USPS continues to demonstrate their carelessness and incompetence. Regardless of location. Brought on 3 packages all with labels on them already, simply needed a a receipt. While the wait was not the usual long wait. Moung, the USPS employee managed to toss my packages in the bin from at least a good 12 to 18 inches above. I mentioned to her about the packages being delicate. With the most nonchalant face and attitude and facial expression she just shrugged it off. It was one of those "it's closing time, I don't give a shit" faces. With that service, I can see why most USPS locations have craptastic Yelp and Google ratings. read more

Very upset with the lack of respect of the law and for people with disabilities. I caught a lazy postal worker not only in handicapped but in the slashed out lines blocking someone with a wheelchair ramp from getting into their vehicle. When confronted he had no answer just ran off as quickly as possible and with a look like I don't care il do what I want. Just blatant disregard for the law or human decency read more

See all

I arrived at 5pm on a weekday and no line! I walked right up, I was greeted with a smile, my question was answered. Will be back when in the area. read more

The Mt Prospect post office is one the worst I ever been to. The clerks move very slow and tend to chat with the customers. It doesn't matter if 15 or 20 people are in line, their speed is always the same. SLOW! I guess when you have a job where you can't get fired you can move at whatever pace suits you. read more

Called to ask how much was overnight shipping and was put on hold for 10 mins.. I ended up looking up the information online and hung up... terrible service read more

I brought in 68 letters that needed special handling and Delores could not have been nicer. She was so gracious and professional while she worked on my postage, which was very time consuming. Both her and her coworkers were pleasant to everyone that came in. read more

Avoid peak times due to lines, but otherwise, the people who work here are very nice and helpful. I agree that it could go faster, but it does help when they have more people working the windows. Seems like that has been cut back lately. I appreciate that they take time to run the postage several ways for the better options because postage is getting so expensive. It is not the workers' fault. They have no influence over the costs. During peak times, they also sometimes separate the customers by purpose so that if you are only picking up a package you move to the end window. The lobby has a good machine to weigh and purchase your postage for packages and envelopes. My local letter carrier is a great guy. So nice. He even knows to not let the cats out so he'll ring the bell if he sees them by the glass door, rather than open it--we have a mail slot. He lives in the neighborhood and treats us as neighbors--so thanks for that. read more

THIS PLACE SUCKS. They have lost 2 registered letters to me since September, even though the tracing service said they were "out for delivery' in my zip code. The manager was no prize either. He had no qualms about admitting stealing Girls Gone Wild DVDs from the inbound deliveries for himself. after that he got surly because I was not walking away a whipped dog and but asking more questions instead. He suggested I contact the seller for a refund on postage. 1). That would have been a fool's errand since the tracing info showed that it had been delivered. and 2.) I didn't want my postage back, I WANTED MY GODDAMN PACKAGE. 3.) all this was spoken with an attitude the I was talking up Mortimer Snerd's (bonus point for whoever knows who Mortimer Snerd was) valuable time picking his nose and insulting the customers. Next time, I shall try smoke signals read more

I have lived in Mt Prospect for over 48 years and have been putting up with delivery of my mail at 7,8 PM for years. When I spoke to my carrier about how late the mail was coming he told me a few weeks ago that they took the mail home on Monday night because it was to late to deliver , today I had two delivery by the post office and I got a tracking message saying they were delivered in my mail box . I went out and could not find them. I went out the second time and walked down my street and found my mail in someone else's mailbox. this is not the first time this has happened but its the last straw. The package contained $2,300 worth of medicine that I was waiting for delivery. They have gotten so bad. There is no excuses for so many errors. read more

This post office takes FOR-EV-ER. I know, I know, a post office that is slow, big surprise. Slow and outdated. I don't understand why they don't hire a couple more people so that customers don't have to wait in line for a half hour, or worse turn around as soon as they walk in and see the line that has formed. I probably saw more people turn around and leave, in comparison to the ones that stayed to wait. They must of known! Sadly, once I've already waited ten minutes, I tend to stick it out. You'd think after they've known how long you've waited, they would at least slap on an understanding, even an apologetic, face and simply respond when you ask how they are doing. Hopefully my mail makes it to its destination this year. read more

If Hell had a post office, this would be it. The African American lady with the glasses is unhelpful, slow and rude. I wanted to ship a letter via registered mail to Brazil, she said she can't, I can only ship it unregistered or use their $50 global express shipping. I went home, called USPS customer service and the supervisor of the Mount Prospect post office, both said that I CAN ship it registered and she was wrong. Please USPS HIRE NEW EMPLOYEES it would speed up the huge lines (30 minute wait usually) and they would hopefully be more knowledgeable about shipping services. Do not come here unless necessary, you've been warned! read more

I understand that it is a busy place but hire someone who can work fast. Few times I've been there and all the people who work there are 50+ years old and take their sweet time. Speed it up. read more

U.S. Post Office - Post Offices Near Me - Mount Prospect, Illinois

Routinely brought 50 +- packages completely ready to go just scan and tell me how much. One day I was told go to UPS it's too many pkgs for them. I said isn't that good more business? Was told no we get paid the same if you bring 100 or 1 pkg. That's why purposefully slow so you will go somewhere else and they can get back to napping. If they only got paid by amount of business they would come to life and work top speed. Maybe letting a few go would light a fire under others to pick up the slack. Start with eliminating the questions regarding adding more services & list of expensive examples for each package after I said send all cheapest way no extras, I'm in a hurry. Been here 40 yrs never any different. It can change, been to other POs on vacation other states and they are super speedy & organized, no wasting time on things you already said you don't want. And super friendly! read more

The lady who helped me get my passport was super nice and super sweet; and ontop of that, she made my passport nightmare an easy feat. All of the people that work here are very nice and friendly. Ive never had any issues here. I know there's lines, but waiting is part of life. Theres lines everywhere. Ive noticed that most of the customers here are EXTREMELY RUDE AND ENTITLED (and also stupid). And a majority of the customers have 0 patience as well and expect everything asap. But unfortunately life doesn't work like that!! Get use to it customers :) read more

The grounds are in need of a landscaper. The weeds are 3 ft high. Asked many times about the weeds.

ZERO - that's my rating. I've been to a couple post offices but this is out of this world in the worst possible way. If you plan on coming here, make sure u set a side a few good hrs for it, bring lunch and make sure ur Netflix is up, you can binge watch a few seasons of your favorite show while u wait - it takes THAT LONG. Terrible read more

Waited in line for 30 minutes just to be told I couldn't get me package by a rude ass lady with no respect or patience. Line was slow as hell, I hate this post office read more

The ladies of this post office totally saved me. I accidentally dropped a pre-paid UPS package in their lobby drop box, realized my mistake a full week later, and they very kindly were able to re-locate my package for me so I could drop it off with the right carrier. They saved me from a lot of hassle and costly replacement fees, and absolutely delivered (pun intended). read more

Just finished up with a passport appointment. Easy peasy! Come prepared with all documentation and the process is as smooth as can be. Delores was delightful to work with and we were done within 20 minutes! Staff is friendly, place is clean, and I literally have zero complaint about my local post office beyond that it gets a bit toasty in the summer. read more

Wow. What can I say. Going to this place gives you an understanding of just how bad the USPS is from a customer service perspective. Most of the people at desk play a game where they ignore you until someone breaks and takes the customer. Really infuriating to watch people look at you then go in back for some unknown purpose and return 5 minutes later. Usually at that point they count some cash or check something on the computer then maybe replenish a stack of forms - all the while the line continues to grow and grow. Usually at that time a guy comes out from the back to ask if anyone is picking up mail - and 9 times of out 10 no one is there for that purpose. He then goes back to doing nothing rather than helping to get people through the line. In general, if you need to speak to someone budget in 30 to 45 minutes - it is never less. Good luck. read more

I give a one star, because I can't give 0. The supervisor is very very unresponsive. I miss my package. On August 19 was out for delivery, today is September 4th and package is still missing. They didn't know were is it. I was asking the supervisor for a very simple later to verify I didn't receive that package. Only with this later I will get a refund. He said,, I can't give you , just fail a claim ''. But this is international package. I am very disappointed from this management read more

On the bright side, this office is usually pretty clean and has a nice layout. The automated machines are well-situated for the holiday rush and I've yet to see an 'out-of-order' sign. Unfortunately the physical employees don't show much more animation than their machinated counterparts. Some days the employees are kinda rude, but most days they're just really slow. My regular post office always has employees running around very quickly, working as fast as they can on various sorting/packing/mail checking errands. I've never seen anyone in the background at this office who looked like they were working, much less hurrying. The counters are also very awkward for shorter people- I can hardly even see the credit/debit machine and I can only hope that I enter the right pin every time. I always avoid this office unless my regular one is closed (unusual that they're open an hour later here- must be the only way they can catch up to the average workload). read more
