“Dear PoPville,
I saw the lost ashes post and thought I would add this:
Twice in the past week my packages were “delivered to reception,” but after searching everywhere possible, my concierge maintains that my building never received those packages. One of those instances was through USPS and I suspect the other was as well (USPS has messed up my deliveries several times over the past couple of years).
After ranting about this with my boyfriend, he realized we have also not received mail in quite a while. Today, he waited for the mail person to finish putting away the mail and tried to catch them on the way out to ask about this -but she blew him off and told him she didn’t have time.
According to our concierge, A LOT of people have been complaining about not receiving mail and packages. We plan to call the Postal Inspection Service.
It would be one thing if packages were just not being delivered and were sitting in the facility, but why are packages being marked as “delivered” as if they are being delivered and accepted elsewhere (much like with the story about the ashes)? Wondering how many other people are dealing with this, specifically with packages?”
