Lately my husband and I have been experiencing some problems with the postal service here in Carson City that has caused some major problems with our credibility. First of all we pay all of our due bills each Friday and never miss a payment on any bills due. Boy, maybe we should really pay more attention.
First, we got a bill from Nevada Bell that they never received payment, as well as AT&T Cable and AT&T cell phone services. We caught the cell phone bill and called and found out that we never got the bill! Then we got a late charge from a credit card company that I wrote the check on May 5 and they received the payment on May 21. And the check only had to go to Salt Lake City! It takes 16 days to get to Salt Lake City from Carson City!
My husband is a truck driver and he said he could make a lot of money from the U.S. Postal Service because it only takes him 10 hours to get to SLC.
What's wrong with the system? We have lived at our address for two years and had never had a problem with any mail and all of a sudden we get late charges for things that we haven't created.
What do we pay for through the USPS? Talk about going postal!
