USPS Delays

[Trendigo]

What's up Meso. Just curious if anyone else is getting hit with major delays left and right via USPS? I order shit online all the time and lately EVERYTHING is taking an absurd amount of time.
Both priority express, had a package take 12 days to get from FL to NC. Had another coming from Cali, been two weeks and still hasn't shown up.
Why is USPS continuing to offer and charge for expedited services when they know damn well its a crapshoot if/when the stuff shows up? Seems illegal

All of my monthly bills arrive on time except for spectrum cable...I can't prove it but I believe it is a deliberate attempt to get me to pay on line...with all of the hacking going on I am paranoid about giving a company access to a savings/checking account...

Same issue here but with FedEx.

It's happening. Waited 10 days for domestic priority. A usual 3 day trip. Deal with it.

I can deal with delays, I'm moreso concerned with the fact that no one sees an issue in continuing to offer a service that's not being honored

I've been waiting over 10 days from a domestic source on a different board...they do not provide tracking info...

Receiving a priority mail order in 2-3 days seems to be less likely than it taking 5-7, no matter what the receipt says. Priority mail is basically 1st class mail now, with possibly better tracking, but no guarantee on the tracking being better or the delivery t/a being sooner than 1st class.

I been paying my bills online for a while and using a separate checking account from my main one. Haven't had a problem..yet. Writing checks are pretty much a thing of the past and I still remember writing at least 30 checks a month back in the day!

USPS used to be pretty reliable back then too. Now things have been arriving late.

I mail my rent check to the landlord at least 9 days before it's due now...can't take chances on it ever being late as I always paid my rent on time.
