I never have had any problems shipping or receiving until the last 2 weeks. Customers think I'm not shipping on time.

Dropped one in the box, tracking NEVER updated from 1/12


Wondering what recourse I have

Have you went into USPS system and requested tracking updates via email or text? For some reason, this sometimes shakes a package loose and back into the delivery stream.

I started doing that a few months ago, when the erroneous expected delivery date message problem began, hoping it would help. I will often see the same expected delivery date right through the night, no package delivered, then the next day it will change to that day.

The bottom line is that until it says that it has arrived at my post office, it is not going out for delivery to my home. That's the only message I can count on any more, and that was not the case a few months ago.

Same here, I don’t trust the delivery dates until it says it arrived at my local post office. Any dates before that are always wrong.

I now have another package I sent last week, from Maine to Florida. I just saw it arrived in Seattle, Washington today. Seattle, Washington.....is no where near Florida. Another one out coming to me, shipped from California, just arrived in Orlando, Florida.

I’m not sure what’s going on, but I’ve never seen it like this. Makes me nervous having my packages be in their hands for so long. Way longer than is necessary.

The extended transit time greatly increases the chance for damages as well.
