My experience at Chowchilla Post office for a new Passport application for my 2 months old son. I live in Madera, CA and it takes me 20 mins or so to reach there. I went on 18th Dec 2025 to collect forms. And with all the documents, me, my wife and our little one reached there on 22nd, and the young lady told us that we need an appointment for new passport acceptance, which we realized our mistake, and set up an appointment for the next day for 11.45am. Next day, as we were leaving the house, the infant started to cry, to take care of his needs, it took us some time, as we didn't want him to be fussy at the post office appointment, so we were late 10 to 15 mins. We were feeling bad that we didn't make it on time and apologized to the young person standing behind the counter. and were glad at the same time, as no one was there in the post office so we might get helped. We were surprised to hear the tone of the young tall person, saying that they don't help with passport services between 12pm-1pm, which I understand, and again told him that due to infant issues we were only 10-15 mins late, but the manner of tone of the tall young man was so demeaning that we thought for a second what a big mistake we have done. We were thinking, even if we were to be helped at 1145 am, it should have easily taken 30 to 40 mins with infant picture taking all, and which would have passed the 12pm deadline. And with nobody besides us in the post office, he just kept repeating they can't help. As we were to drive back to Madera, I went back again just one more time to request them, as it's not very easy travelling with infant and more importantly the store was not busy at all. The moment I entered I saw 4employees just chit chatting behind the counter area, and I asked one employee to see if they could help us, he also said the same thing and told me that I should have reached 30 mins early, which sounds great and I understand that. Thankfully, another older gentleman was there, must be a supervisor, I requested him too and asked him politely, that due to child issue we got 10 to 15 mins late, but he also said same thing, like the others were saying, looks like they must be really good at throwing policy book at clients or great team players, because, they knew my issue well before I talked them in detail, must have talked to each other, when I entered the store second time. Which is great, as team unity is important in a retail environment. Funny part is, when I was pleading with the supervisor, an older female customer came and overheard our conversation. Even she said, give him a break, as Christmas is around the corner, at that time, the supervisor said ok, wait for one hour then we will help you, especially if the other scheduled appointment doesn't show up. I realized they are in no mood to help me today, even when the store was empty most of the time. I left the store and scheduled an appointment for another day, unfortunately at the same place, as this is one nearest to me for passport services. My issue is not that I wasn't helped, or rule book was thrown at me, as I was polite at all times and left the store thinking, why everyone there was not in a mood to accommodate, starting with demeaning tone to making sure no one makes exception especially in regard to passport services even when they were not busy. Being myself in a retail leadership role for the last 15 plus years, I felt there was something missing out there. To which I realize there is a leadership issue at this location, especially when I talked to supervisor, I could feel that he don't want to do different what his staff have already said, or try to understand the situation, and take action on what is best for this store, which is providing a great customer experience. And now I also understand why that young gentleman spoke to us like this, why even the store was empty, they don't want to help, because the culture in the store is like this. As I looked more regarding functioning of Post office, I came across that Post Office employees are Public Servants but are NOT funded through public taxes, instead are self-funded through sales In there stores, which suggests me this should be a great reason to provide strong customer service experience, as I was also going to buy passport size pics and other stuffs, which I guess was revenue for the store. Which makes me wonder about a lot of other things. I understand that there are times when there should be no exceptions and policies should be followed. But sometimes, when circumstances like this, a person was in your store 3 times, bringing his 2 months old infant twice, coming from a different town, only a few mins late and the store was not busy, I guess little consideration should have been given, just my thoughts. Going through others' feedback, I see a pattern in this location, that employees don't like helping people especially coming with passport submission requests. It is unfortunate that the read more

All bad had to get passports for me and my two girls and I had made an appointment and at the time my ID was expired so I couldn't get it done well they said come back and you don't need an appointment I even called to make sure since I don't live in the area so I get there and they tell me no I need an appointment I told them what happen then Mike the only one that knows how to process passports I guess said he would help me if I can wait I said fine so after two hours of waiting he called me up then he tells me I can only do one passport I had to walk away he knew the whole time it was for me and my two girls. That was so messed up no I'm sorry for having you wait like basically he didn't care I feel like the whole time he knew he was not going to help me at one point he told me to move and go wait out of sight by the drop box. Horrible customer service. So if you don't have an appointment don't bother coming here read more

I…read morehave been a loyal customer for years, visiting at least two to three times a week to ship both personal and business items. The staff is usually very friendly and helpful, but my recent interaction has made me question whether I will return. During my visit, I needed a box to ship my item. I noticed several empty boxes on the floor near the trash, as well as many overflowing from the outdoor trash cans. When I picked up one of these discarded boxes to use, a new employee, whom I believe was named Mariah (i belive) informed me that I was not allowed to use it and had to purchase a new one instead. I explained that I have never been stopped from doing this before. It makes little sense to force a customer to buy a new box when there are numerous empty ones being thrown away inside and outside the store. Insisting on an upsell rather than letting a customer reuse trash is poor customer service. While I was temporarily leaving to find a box elsewhere, I noticed the staff actively gathering the empty boxes to discard them. This experience was highly frustrating and fell far short of the customer service standards I have come to expect from your business. As a frequent customer who relies on your services for my business, I hope you will review this policy.
