Yes and I should have done that already. I was lazy. totodeinhere Jan 2012 #3
Tell them the $30 fee is why you're changing banks Lisa D Jan 2012 #8
You really think your bank is responsible for the USPS's error? Generic Brad Jan 2012 #49
And then I have other people in this same thread telling me that I am using this as an excuse totodeinhere Jan 2012 #53
I understand your feelings towards the post office Generic Brad Jan 2012 #62

We had some really good multi-branch credit unions out in the Pacific Northwest customerserviceguy Jan 2012 #11
We have plenty of good small credit unionsup here in Maine. MarianJack Jan 2012 #12
Great! customerserviceguy Jan 2012 #22

Well you live and learn. Yes in hindsight I realize that I should have used a different payment totodeinhere Jan 2012 #13
Yes, it is their fault customerserviceguy Jan 2012 #21
The USPS is at fault treestar Jan 2012 #14
I agree, if a package is destroyed, they cover it, why not this fee? Lionessa Jan 2012 #25
from "The Postman" sad sally Jan 2012 #15
The same shit happens with UPS and FedEx. baldguy Jan 2012 #16
If had had used UPS or FedEx and that happened I would also be angry at them. totodeinhere Jan 2012 #17
My 2 cents matt819 Jan 2012 #18
Trust me - UPS and FedEx lose stuff ALL THE TIME. baldguy Jan 2012 #19
I'm just suggesting some perspective matt819 Jan 2012 #61
Sorry. This won't happen with FedEx... Honeycombe8 Jan 2012 #52
And when you look it up to see who signed for it, it says "Reception" or "Front desk" baldguy Jan 2012 #54
FedEx always gets a name, not job title or location. FedEx provides the TYPED name Honeycombe8 Jan 2012 #55
No they don't "always". Are you kidding? baldguy Jan 2012 #57
No, I'm not kidding. I suspect you didn't require "adult signature." Honeycombe8 Jan 2012 #64
And I suspect that there aren't many 8 yr olds running around accepting Fedex packages baldguy Jan 2012 #67
I've had issues with my local P.O. Fla_Democrat Jan 2012 #23
Oh, please, it's not like these and much worse happen at UPS, Fed Ex and the yellow one. Lionessa Jan 2012 #24
Thanks for your empathy. n/t totodeinhere Jan 2012 #26
Why should I give your whine fest any sympathy? And Lionessa Jan 2012 #41
I object to your calling me hysterical. I am not. I was wronged plain and simple. n/t totodeinhere Jan 2012 #46
A mistake has happened, plain and simple. You are dramatizing it into a "wrong." Lionessa Jan 2012 #63
No, this doesn't happen with a "signature required" FedEx package. Honeycombe8 Jan 2012 #65

Rarely has anyone not "did nothing wrong" when stop payments are required. It's almost always Lionessa Jan 2012 #42
I recommend Kellerfeller Jan 2012 #29
Thanks. I did. But it's too late. I already stopped payment on the check. totodeinhere Jan 2012 #33
What did she say when you asked Kellerfeller Jan 2012 #37
She said they would put a trace on it. But since I already paid $30 to stop payment on the check totodeinhere Jan 2012 #39
very sorry this happened... very frustrating handmade34 Jan 2012 #30
I'm not sure how insurancwe would work in this case. totodeinhere Jan 2012 #35
You should have sent it with an ordinary first class stamp. FarCenter Jan 2012 #31
It's kind of late for that now. totodeinhere Jan 2012 #38
I don't see why you are aggravated at your bank FarCenter Jan 2012 #43
Not really digging all the USPS bashing going on here lately. Doremus Jan 2012 #34
I didn't say it was a first class envelope. totodeinhere Jan 2012 #36
That was my point. You paid $5 for Priority instead of using a simple stamp. Doremus Jan 2012 #50
Should I be allowed to complain when they lose my $400 check or not? totodeinhere Jan 2012 #51
And a handy link to a bunch of complainers. How special. Here's a link for you: Doremus Jan 2012 #59
The reason the postal service is in trouble has nothing to do with their employees. And jillan Jan 2012 #44

The letter was probably delivered...to the wrong address Liberal_in_LA Jan 2012 #45
Yes I considered that possibility and that's why I chose to stop payment on the check. n/t totodeinhere Jan 2012 #48
Did you file a complaint with both the post office that last had possession LiberalFighter Jan 2012 #58
I'm unfamilar with "delivery confirmation receipt." Did you send it "certified mail"? Honeycombe8 Jan 2012 #66
Ignatius? Is that you? PassingFair Jan 2012 #68
