Not only is their tracking system horrible but dealing with anyone at the post office in the event of a loss is more than frustrating. At least UPS and Fed Ex employees act like they care. I used Fed Ex for 9 years in KY and never had a problem. I've been using UPS for 3 years here and never had a problem. On the rare occasions when I have to use the USPS, I'd say at least half the times there are some frustrations, to say the least.Judy Laquidarahttp://www.patchworktimes.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35068821.post-82249892592007677122010-01-16T10:01:55.413-05:002010-01-16T10:01:55.413-05:00Sorry, Bonnie but Delivery Confirmation is NOT a t...Sorry, Bonnie but Delivery Confirmation is NOT a tracking service. If you expect tracking you need to purchase more than "delivery confirmation"<br />According to # you posted the item was received at the delivery post office this morning.=) So it's gonna get quilted today!!!wildcatmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18339200331859223634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35068821.post-47449236272578520322010-01-16T08:27:34.835-05:002010-01-16T08:27:34.835-05:00This is the Blog I've ever visited.

I kept checking the # each day to see when it would be arriving and each day it said the same thing that USPS was notified of package. I'm on the phone with the shipper and he's checking to see if it they mailed it, when I ran the # again and it says delivered to my door 5 mins ago... I run out to the mail box and there it is.... Which means till my mail man scanned it, it was never scanned... How are we suppose to track it that way????<br />Stupid postal people and they want more money!!!lrmarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10229867524052559206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35068821.post-44197718982789720782010-01-15T20:16:47.375-05:002010-01-15T20:16:47.375-05:00we moved in September '09 and we still can'...we moved in September '09 and we still can't confirm our physical home address w/USPS and most delivery services require this before taking/sending packages.3anklebitershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08283079863174066747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35068821.post-78725640933254201392010-01-15T18:27:22.523-05:002010-01-15T18:27:22.523-05:00if it does not arrive tomorrow, which it should fo...if it does not arrive tomorrow, which it should for Priority, you ought to go scream at someone!!<br /><br />I had a package mailed Dec 18 just arrive in Florida this Tuesday!

Most items get there in 2-3 days...and 4-5 days when it ships over the holidays.<br /><br />I always using tracking...and it is accurate. I know what you mean about "accepted"...as I sent a package to my secret pal last year...and it took days. However, later I found that the delivery had been attempted...but she was not at home...and could not get to the post office to get it because she had to go out of town unexpectly. When she got back (3-4 days later) she picked the package up at the post office...and the tracking changed to "delivered".<br /><br />So, I don't blame the USPS...<br /><br />I think we have a microwave mindset. You know...when you put your "entire dinner" into the microwave and hit 3 minutes...then stand there and tap your foot saying "hurry up, hurry up".<br /><br />That's me...but, I'm trying to do better. Really, I am!Shawklhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14303018876968056901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35068821.post-37709663871355044612010-01-15T13:59:00.260-05:002010-01-15T13:59:00.260-05:00hmm.. i've never had problems when i've ma...hmm.. i've never had problems when i've mailed things with delivery confirmation and insurance. sometimes they aren't good at updating, BUT if you had delivery confirmation AND insurance, they are even better about keeping track of that package with fear of having to pay that insurance!! i'm sure it will arrive safely.. since it technically is only for 'delivery'.. so when its delivered to their door, it should show up, which if you sent priority should be there today at the latestThe Nikkelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01286477511711022161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35068821.post-72691219556972985992010-01-15T12:39:21.499-05:002010-01-15T12:39:21.499-05:00I too, do not use USPS for anything valuable.

That is just crazy.
