I just received a call from my auto insurance company, who’d attempted to send my new card to my regular home address. Yet it was returned to them as undeliverable. I confirmed that they sent it to my address and ZIP+4 *exactly* per USPS specs (and of course I’ve received mail from them in the past). Thankfully I still have a few weeks before my policy renews and I must have that new card, but still…it makes me wonder how often this happens. I’ve seen instances before where mail for an office in the 315 building (yes, THAT building) was delivered to a residence.

Anyway, I filled out an issue form online for this. In the past when we had continued mail issues at our office, I’d gone to meet with the assistant postmaster here and even that didn’t fix the situation. Something appears wrong at our P.O., but it may not just be limited to our area.

It takes a long time for the catalog rejections to be processed but I’ve already stopped 13 catalogs.

I have been tempted to call some of those businesses that send out that crap and tell them that I am purposefully buying what they sell from SOMEONE ELSE, just in defiance of their waste.

Ditto with car dealer ads on TV…they would never get my dollar.
