Need advice about dealing with the united states post office. help.?

We changed our address three weeks ago and have yet to receive any forwarding mail. We have called a bunch of times and they just say the same thing ';we dont know where your mail is'; and never give us a real answer. I'm worried we could have important info just sitting somewhere or its just lost. We have no idea what to do to get our mail and get some answers from these people. Any tips would be great.Need advice about dealing with the united states post office. help.?
turn in another change of address card. then mail your self a post card to old address and see how long it takes.


at our office it takes a couple of weeks to change . they have to deliver to old address, see the change return to main for them to change labels. then redeliver in system.


always better to contact all your contacts and give them a change of address too. then only the ones that missed the change have to go through the system twice.Need advice about dealing with the united states post office. help.?
Here's the deal. Your former local post office where you were getting mail delivered from is taking too long to send out the CFS which means forwarded mail. Now what you have to do is this. Contact your local Postal Inspection office and explain to them your situation and demand that they look into the matter. I bet you that this has happened not only to your but to many people..





However remember, Forwarded mail except package is one of the last free servcies along with blind printed matter for the and library mail which are still free services.
It takes something like 2 weeks before they actually start fowarding your mail.





But it never hurts to send another request to have them foward your mail.





You may also want to make a list of all your bills that you pay and contact them directly so you don't get behind and get charged any late penalties.
Why not stop at the post office and see if they are holding any mail. The previous answer about putting in another address change card is a good one too. Try to make sure you have notified everyone who sends you mail, such as banks, power companies, car loan company etc.

I understand what you're going through, we moved this summer and it's been a major hassle getting everything together! The other thing about the forwarding, is that they don't forward everything! It says so on the change of address form, but no one ever notices that. Make sure you contact anyone who would be sending you anything really important so that you're sure to get it. You really don't want to count on the post office to get it to you. The other thing is that you get forwarded mail about a week or even two later, so stuff can get old or expire in that time. Deadlines can be missed, etc, so call the people you get important mail from, and change your address with them, personally!
