When the post office was closed on Saturday, after 5:00, your heartless supervisor of building had 10 cars towed. We had 2 small children who had no car seats to go home. He said it was “his” parking lot and he had a right for Sandys to tow our car. I asked his name and another young women her name and they refused to give it to me when I said I was contacting a TV station. We were downtown for less than a hour to go to the German festival. Was it prejudice against an German event? This is not Dayton strong - it is Dayton weak!

Do not park your car in a parking lot not designated for the event you attended, and your car would not have been towed. Not sorry for your ignorance and entitlement feelings.

Postal worker on Longvale Dr. left mail in my box that wasn’t even my zip code. Then I noticed something in the grass. It was a letter he had dropped. Three days later he left my mail box open on a very windy day. My neighbor noticed and came over and closed it fearing the wind could blow my mail out. He is getting a good salary and good benefits.

My package left from Dayton OH, it circled around the USA for about 1,5 weeks and then ended up back in the Dayton OH post office and has been there for 2 weeks with no signs of life.

My package was put on the floor in front of my mailbox instead of being delivered to my door. It could have been stolen if it hadn’t be brought to me by someone who found it. I was surprised. Never had that happen before.

I’m missing a package from Sri Lanka. The seller sent two packages. I received one package Tuesday, 23 October 2021. I went to the PO today, 30 October, gave her my tracking number. She could not find it. This is the second package lost by the postal service. What’s going on with the postal service?

Mail carrier for the last three days, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday has delivered mail to my residence that belongs to my next door neighbor. My address is 241 but I’m getting 243’s mail. I’m taking mail to the correct address, I don’t want to be a mail carrier I’m retired and don’t want a job. I’ve called the Post Office on Salem ave where the mail is delivered from but no response, only a recording for instructions that is no help. So how do I rectify this discrepancy? This on the regular and I’m tired of getting other folks mail consistently!!!!!!

I am trying to find out why I haven't received any mail on Virginia Avenue since Saturday (Monday was a holiday) February 13, 2021. Speaking with neighbors, they haven't received any either. Tried calling the post office to speak to someone and the phone just rang and rang. I like speaking with someone to find out what the heck is going on. I have seen mail being delivered to other areas and want to no why we haven't received anything. I want to speak to someone.

We have not received mail since Saturday 2/13/21 now it's Thursday. I realize there has been a lot of snow, and Monday was a holiday, but I would like to know when all of our mail will be delivered. Also if there is a suspension of service for our area, that should be listed clearly on our local website.

on Saturday 2/22/2020 I had a lady mail carrier and she was filling my mail box and when I heard her I opened my door and started to remove my mail in there and she looked at me and without hesitating she said you can wait for me to fill your box before removing it. and my dog came up to the door barking and she (the dog) didn't step out on the porch which I wouldn't let her anyway and the lady said, you need to control your dog and keep it quite. now my regular delivery man loves it when my dog comes to the door barking and he has no problem with me removing the mail before he is done. I think this lady mail person needs retraining in manners and know when she should keep her mouth shut. she should have a post office job like emptying the boxes, she is not good with dealing with people.

It’s good to let a mail person do their job and place the mail in the mailbox before you start taking it out. It all mail carriers are the same. Maybe you should learn some manners. If your dog is barking control your animal.

Why? Why can you "not" wait the "seconds" it takes to put your mail in the box "before" you reach to get it? Why do you do that? Are you sitting by your door waiting for the mail? Or when your dog starts to bark do you jump up and run to the door? What is it? And if your dog is barking why open up the door? Because all mail-persons don't know your dog! Maybe you have a crush on the mail-person or your life is just... boring? If I were your mail-person and I knew that you did that, I would gather all your mail before I reached your property and I would quickly put your mail in box! By the time you'd open the door the only thing you'd see would be the back of me! Sounds like you like to irritate folks! Just plain childish!

I don't know who the mail handlers is for Great Oaks Drive.But he needs to park his truck better. About 4-6 weeks ago the Dayton Police got on us for not parking right. Your Mailman is about 4-6 feet from curve and today even block a driveway. Please look into this. He's setting a bad example of the Mail Service. Thanks for your time.

On June 5th 2019, I had all of my mail stuffed so hard, that I could not get it out.

Which postal employee, would do such a mean act on a senior citizen, knowing that they had trouble get the mail out? Not thunderstorms are on the way, and the lid cannot be closed. So how do we remedy this situation? And, one envelop is on the ground. Ps: I cannot receive e-mail.
