Do you have a service problem? Here are four ways to have your issue addressed by the Postal Service:

1)    1-800-ASK-USPS: Postal call center employees can answer most questions. They also can contact Postal officials nationwide electronically and immediately refer your issue to the appropriate local Postal manager who is in the best position to deal with your concerns. In addition, call center employees create an electronic record of service issues so that they can document the assistance that you receive.

2)    Local Post Office: Local postmasters are responsible for ensuring that their customers receive prompt and efficient delivery and retail services. If problems occur, they are in the best position to investigate the issue and fix the problem.
