  Christina Allen Page 💗💜💙 (@sihayadesigns) reported 19 minutes ago from Ellicott City, Maryland

  Great. Have to report something to the @USPS postal inspector. Carrier delivered a pkg that was supposed to have signature delivery. The box/item was severely damaged. Asked for proof of delivery, they provided a forged / falsified signature, which is a felony. @USPSHelp

  Hey @USPS The Ellicott City MD location could use some serious customer service training. 40 minutes in line, one person working, everyone else fussing about why they can’t work and blaming the computers.

  Baltimore City should be suspending all utility bills & late fees at least until the mail fixes itself. My husband has had a check in the mail since May (USPS confirmed it has the check and it’s “out for delivery”). It’s pure luck and privilege we don’t need it to survive.

  3) why is it that @ups and @USPS can give a window time of delivery and @fedex fails on the day let alone a window.

  @ecbanks At least you got a picture, even if it’s a generic one. I got a delivery notice today from Amazon for a package that was sent via USPS, and it’s not on my porch or my neighbors’!

  @RichardGrenell The USPS is not a profit center. It is a government service. It doesn’t lose money. It costs money to run.

  USPS informed delivery mail app is very disappointing. Show's pictures of your mail to be delivered but nothing hits your mailbox 😡

  @kcranews USPS is a complete and utter failure. Not a public service. A financial trainwreck.

  @USPS "Our system shows We were unable to attempt delivery of your item on April 12, 2026 at 2:41 pm in _______________ due to interference by an animal. Your item will go out for delivery on the next delivery day as conditions permit." I don't have pets, So I know this is a lie.

  If I could get that company I order incense from to send me the tracking number to my package l. That would be great instead of me playing detective to check if they mailed it or if USPS is having issues.

  @HootieBoy That definitely helps. I didn't notice these issues as much when it was UPS. Matter of fact it was on a very rare occasion it didn't show up on time with UPS. Since since USPS started doing deliveries it's been more frequent. When I order stuff through FedEx, it is never late, and sometimes it's a day early.

  @iAnonPatriot What a moron. Of course she got fired. So she’s one of the reasons USPS is terrible service.

  @DeRushaJ @DanHayesMLB The problem with raising postage costs is there’s no upgrade. More cost equals same incompetent service. Cost should equal performance. Do better USPS.

  @nypost What an absolute mess of an organization. I know many very good usps workers; it’s not the productivity of the worker. The issue is an organization that didn’t adjust to this thing we call the Internet. If it had been allowed to go private, the resulting firm would have made competitive business adjustments or gone out of business (there are other delivery services and don’t think for a second that some other firm wouldn’t have stepped in to take over the standard delivery service). But instead it’s an example of government mush. Everything the government runs turns to mush, necessarily. When will Congress act to privatize USPS?

  The ONE time I have a shipping issue with USPS and it’s literally the most important thing I need that I only order once a year you gotta be kidding me 😓
