#&*%#*!!!! stupid post office AND stupid SSI

[moosmom]

I hate my mailman. I don't get my mail till 6:3O PM. I went to the post office and complained about it. Didn't do much good. It's funny how I saw him sitting in his PO truck in our parking lot not doing much. It was around 3 pm. Gee, ya think he'd deliver the mail or something.

well I did get the check. late but at least I did get it. I have also received mail that is addressed to someone by another name, and another address number AND street!!

I have a very RECENT post office story of grief!

I mailed EIGHT bills in the beginning of February (including my MORTGAGE). By the 19th, not one of those checks had been presented for payment. My husband called the post office, they said they'd investigate and get back in 24 hours. They never did. I had no choice but to stop payment on all the checks, go on line or phone, and repay all those bills (along with all the late charges). It is now March 10 - I'm STILL dealing with the ramifications of that! Most of the checks were finally presented on or about February 23rd. I had notified ALL the payees of the situation and repaid ALL of the bills. I am now dealing with additional late fees, returned check fees (even though I told them NOT to process those checks), and other problems. The mortgage alone was a NIGHTMARE!

I feel your pain!

I had the bank holding my credit card freeze my account and change the number because I didn't receive a statement this month. It was mailed Feb. 21; it's March 10! Anyone could get ahold of my account number. I do as much online banking as I can, but it doesn't help if you don't know how much you owe.

And on this happy note: stamps are raising again in April!

Another case of we get to pay more for less!
