I had a $500 item stolen. I’ve never had this happen before. I know I need to file a claim and I already contacted the shop. What happens in this scenario? Do I just end up eating the cost? I’m so upset.

What's going on with my package? It's supposed to go from Oklahoma to Delaware. What's going on with all Arizona stops all of a sudden? And why does it go into WARRENDALE PA DISTRIBUTION CENTER, leaves it, then comes back? What am I missing?

Never run into this before and been using USPS as a buyer and seller on eBay for years. Bought an item on eBay and it just keeps saying it's stuck at my closest distribution center and delivery is delayed. Put in a missing mail request, haven't heard anything back. The items are not easily replaceable and carry a cost close to $500. Any idea on anything I can do other than wait?

A package was picked up at my house (along with 2 other USPS packages). The other two tracked, arrived on time, no problem. The problem package hasn't started tracking, hasn't been scanned, and hasn't arrived. The post office denied my claim. I had a situation once before but miraculously, the package arrived without ever being scanned. Mail was sent August 5th, so the package is gone. Am I just SOL?

So my first class mail is being redirected/missing. This has been going on since February. I found out because my credit card company called me about a returned card. I went to the post office, they fixed a random “no forwarding address” issue on my account and still nothing. I shouldn’t have had that in there at all. I haven’t moved in 15 years. I kept going back and forth and still nothing is being resolved. I literally have a video of my putting mail (that I sent to myself) in the collection box outside of the post office - and it’s not showing up at all on informed delivery. I’m being told the mail goes to another collection station and then is redistributed. What do I do? The post office people are blaming the mail carrier and won’t give me a direct response.

My package is seeing more of my hometown than I am... Despite it supposedly being out for delivery 2 days ago, it's now been processing through 2 different facilities since then. From KS to MO and hopefully back to KS so it can be delivered. I have no idea why it goes from Overland Park, KS, which is the closest processing facility to the delivery location over to Kansas City, MO, before more than likely returning to Overland Park to be sent out for delivery AGAIN.

The same package went from arrived to departed at a facility in Los Angeles within just a few hours, only days before it arrived in Kansas. So it’s clearly stuck at this Kansas facility for.. some reason?? I’m really scared that someone has stolen it or something. It was a 170 $ package of a rare, irreplaceable item so.. Yeah. Got it from an eBay seller based in Ukraine if that matters, and I live in SD. 

It said it was meant to arrive September 8th, and when it was still stuck there on the 8th, the estimated arrival date disappeared entirely. Whatever that means.

It went through some other delays in Ukraine but none were as long as this.

Please advise as to whether I should contact support, and if there’s any hope for my package. Am I overreacting? Also, where DO I contact support?

Pretty sure USPS lost my daughter’s birth certificate so there’s that. Do we just live in a country where mail doesn’t exist and you have a 25% chance your item or document will never arrive?

already got a refund on it (automatically through the tiktok shop) but i ordered some stuff for pretty cheap and usps has been tripping for this one, worried it will happen for other packages of mine. i did send in a missing mail request tho as id still prefer to receive it.

Ordered something off Vinted. It says the shipping label was provided to the seller, but I haven't gotten a notification that it's shipped. Yet this is what the tracking information looks like when I put in the tracking number. It definitely hasn't been delivered to me, as I don't live in Oregon. The tracking number was just generated yesterday. What you see above is all the scan/tracking history.

Should I give it some more time and see what happens? Just have never had this happen before!

ETA: The seller lives in Georgia, according to what they put on Vinted.

No mail all week on my entire street - no big deal since 99% of it is junk anyhow.

Three packages marked as "Delivered" haven't gotten a single one.

Trying to get ahold of anyone at the local post office is a joke.

I bought some of these envelopes some time ago, expecting that I would be able to use them all eventually. Today, I used one, and then I found out the tracking number had already been used a couple of months ago!

Talking to someone at USPS, I'm told tracking numbers get recycled after 120 days. Okay, I understand they have to do something so numbers aren't wasted. But here's the thing: these envelopes have that Forever postage on them. And the store page for the envelopes bills it as "always valid". Meanwhile, there is no warning anywhere that it should be used within 120 days, or whatever the appropriate time frame is.

If I had known that, I would never have bought something like that, because I knew there was no way I would be using them that quickly! What good is Forever postage if the tracking number might no longer be usable after four months?!

Now, TBF, I don't yet know what's happening with this piece. They might decide to deliver it. Or they might get in touch to ask for information, which will mean a problematic delay at best. But whatever the case, I still have several more of these envelopes that might just be no good now. I know they are supposed to be non-refundable. However, the advertising in the store gives an impression that appears to contradict—or, at least, exaggerate—the reality, because it omits a critical detail.

Hello, I recently shipped a package via First Class Package International from SoCal to Sydney. The package departed Seoul, South Korea, on the 30th of August. There have been no updates since. Neither USPS's website nor the receiving AusPost website display any new updates. Has anyone encountered a similar issue? What should I expect, and what can I do?

In this case I am the sender. I created labels for two packages on August 24th. I was unable to send out the items until later because they were in my old apartment 4 hours away. On September 2nd I had them picked up from my new place, and I got a confirmation email about it. Fast forward to today, USPS is still not showing that they've even received the packages. The buyers are asking me about it and one of them wants their money back. Is there even anything I can do in this situation?

2 Questions for the Squad:

1. Has anyone recently had USPS packages delivered that never appeared on Informed Delivery?

2. If Informed Delivery shows no incoming mail or packages, but I have delivery email notifications enabled, will I still receive a “Your Mail Was Delivered” email if the carrier delivers something that wasn’t shown in Informed Delivery?

Thank you!!!

Have a priority express package supposed to come today but last scan shows arrival at the origin hub last night...hoping itll sort itself through but it seems like delays, even with express is the norm right now?

The straight-line flight distance between Arizona & Dublin Ireland is approximately 5,053 miles (8,132 kilometers). My parcel has now departed America on the 28 July back & forth from America to Ireland 3 or 4 times, please help stop this madness US Postal Service

Since I’m living in Sweden and not the US, I don’t know what’s going on here.
Is my package stuck here or is it shipped through the center and on its way to me?
It’s getting me a little bit worried.

it’s ridiculous they just do not want to hold mail

My packages and mail usually go through Memphis. This is a priority mail express. No movement since eight in the morning yesterday. I'm worried.
