[Lincolnparkdc] Missing package

[Peter R]

If USPS says a package was delivered late at night (or even late in the afternoon), it is unlikely that it actually was.  It will probably arrive the next day.

 

The USPS contract with Amazon requires delivery within a certain timeframe.  If the carrier can’t make it in time, at the end of the shift he/she will just scan all the packages in the truck as “delivered”, or even “delivery attempted”, “no access”, or “no such address” and leave them in the truck.  The next day, a different carrier will get stuck delivering them.  

 

You can do an online chat with Amazon and report the fraud, and sometimes they will even give you some credit on the shipping (or Prime) cost, but they will always tell you to wait another day or two before they consider the package to be lost and give you your money back.

A package was supposedly delivered last night at 125 11th St SE.  

 

Please let me know if it showed up at the wrong address. 

 

Thanks
