Flat Rate Envelopes - Problem solution
#1
For all of those of you who have had trouble with the PO denying your FRE for mailing fabric or blocks - I have a solution to this. I went to my PO this afternoon with all the issues many of you have. My clerk and Postmaster said this, "If you get me the cities of those PO's who are giving you a hard time, we will personally make the phone calls to get this resolved. We want the public to use our service, and those who are being nasty about this need to be stopped."
So, here is what I am requesting. Instead of giving me the story, if you have had an issue with this, in this thread, please just give me the city and state of the PO you have had trouble with. I will give the list to my PO's clerk and Postmaster. And as an added note, if you can even get me the names of those giving you a hard time,(send those to me by PM please) I will also include those on the list. How does this sound to all of you?

This sounds like a sensible thing to do. Surprisingly, today at a club meeting, one of the group who had had to buy massive amounts of mailing products for the Sheriff's department, was talking about the same thing. Said that with the bad press the USPO was getting, it was simply forcing people to go online more and write less and send less packages. UPS is polite!! Telephoning is good, some of us have unlimited calling now, and in general, most folks are doing much less writing and sending small presents these days. No one wants to be snarled at or think they've been cheated, it's just too easy to go to UPS, which will actually PACK your delicate objects!! A friend had a complete set of expensive table ware sent that way, and as they packed it they phoned her to tell her one cup had a small chip on it, which she knew. It got to her son in another state with no damage!!
So the USPO had better do some fast public relations work..NOW. Here in my town the Post Office employees are nice, even when the place is packed they are pleasant and I really do like that sort of welcome.
