Mail carrier ruined a package and its contents and I am going through hell trying to get my $20 claim filled.
This isn't worth it.
I sent a Christmas cactus to my mom for ... Christmas. It was sent carefully packaged and NOTED that it was a LIVE PLANT on the package.
My mom lives out in the country, so the mail carrier was evidently too lazy that day it was delivered... and didn't want to get out of their car to deliver the package in person... SO, they JAMMED and CRAMMED the box into the mailbox and smashed it all up!!! LIVE PLANT!!!
AND, did I mention it was BELOW FREEZING??!!! They left it out to freeze!
AND, did I mention, there were people home at the residence that could have received the package in person! So it would not have frozen or been smashed up??
I have submitted a claim, which was not easy to do. I have not received ANYTHING back. So, I called the PO. SUPPOSEDLY a check has been issued to me, but it has the wrong zip code on it! (I haven't seen it or any correspondence regarding that check...) She read it back to me, it was correct! BUT, they won't send me a NEW check unless I write them ANOTHER letter to have them cancel that check and re-issue a new check and re-send it to me..............
REALLY???!! You don't have $20 petty cash or SOMETHING to hand me to reimburse me for your incompetence?
GIVE ME A BREAK! read more
