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!
