    Spoke to a woman today who was very rude. I didn't get her name because she had me so mad I just…read morewanted to get off the phone. I would say she had a Jamaican accent. I worked at a credit union for 35 years in customer service and marketing. Her attitude was totally unacceptable. I agreed with the toll just was trying to figure out why the transponder didn't work after it was recently updated. She was of no help. I am seeing lots of other bad reviews for Leeway Service Center. Maybe one bad apple spoiled the whole bunch. Suanne Brown, Cape Coral

    Yesterday (December 11), a bill in the mail for crossing the Cape Coral Bridge (on May 13)…read more Weird because I have a NC Quick Pass and they usually just charge that. I've been charged for crossing the bridge before and a number of times that week. So why send a bill SIX MONTHS LATER? Seriously? Frustrating because there is a $3.00 "Admin Fee." This is literally highway robbery! Your transponder reader couldn't read my transponder so I get hit with a 150% surcharge? Heck, why not make the "Admin Fee" $10.00 or $100.00? I'll just pay it (and complain here) because it's just not worth the hassle of fighting for $3.00. And who would I fight anyway? They refer me to the NC Quick Pass people to dispute the toll. Why would NC care about fixing an issue with a Florida toll? [Review 20901 overall - 1792 in Florida - 1885 of 2023.]

    The Attack on Fort Myers is a historic sign located in front of the Lee Public Library, The sign…read moredetails an interesting bit of Civil War History. It turns out Fort Myer was the location of the southernmost battle during the Civil War. Marker F-297 was installed in 1982 by Col. Abraham C. Myers Camp #1322, Sons of Confederate Veterans in cooperation with Department of State. After the Seminole Wars, Fort Myers was abandoned but Union soldiers moved in December 1863. Their plan was to confiscate the cattle from area ranches in order to cut off the food supply to the Confederate Army of Tennessee in Georgia. By 1865 they had stolen 4,000 head of cattle. By that time Fort Myers had become a refuge for escaped slaves and Union sympathizers. At one point there were 400 people there. In response to the cattle thefts the Confederates organized a militia to stop the raids. Among them was Capt. Francis A. Hendry who Hendry County Florida is named for. They were called the Cattle Guard Battalion or "Cow Cavalry." In early February 1865, 275 of the Cattle Guard Battalion prepared the attack Fort Myers because they learned it might be abandoned. They arrived at Fort Thompson in LaBelle Florida where they shot several black Union soldiers who were attempting to flee. They then marched on to the gates of Fort Myers. The group led by Major Footman approached the fort under the flag of truce and gave them 20 minutes to surrender. Fort commander Capt. James Doyle sent his response " "Your demand for an unconditional surrender has been received. I respectfully decline; I have force enough to maintain my position and will fight you to the last." Doyle wheeled his cannons outside the fort and began firing on the Confederates. Throughout the day both sides fired on each other. During the fighting one black Federal soldier was killed. Firing ceased at dark and the next morning, the Cattle Guard Battalion returned to Fort Meade. After defending the fort, Fort Myers was again abandoned in early March.

    Did you know that the Civil War went as far south as Fort Myers? Further South even than here, but…read morethis is where we are so here's the history. This marker recalls an otherwise unimportant skirmish between Union and Confederate forces, noteworthy only because it was here in Southwest Florida. The marker reads, "In December 1863, the Army post of Fort Myers, inactive since 1858, was reoccupied. The fort served as a supply depot for the Federal blockade squadron. Troops from the fort often raided Confederate supply depots in the state's interior, since Florida beef fed the Confederate army. To discourage these raids, Confederate Major William Footman led 275 men of Florida's "Cow Cavalry" from Fort Thompson (LaBelle) to the very gates of Fort Myers. Shortly after noon of February 20, 1865, Major Footman approached the fort under a flag of truce and gave the Federals 20 minutes to surrender. After Captain James Doyle, commander of the garrison which consisted of the Union 2nd Florida Cavalry, the 110th New York Infantry, and the 2nd U.S. Colored Infantry, refused, the Confederates bombarded the fort with their field piece. They were answered by Fort Myers' three cannons. The cannonade and musketry continued until after nightfall, when Footman and his Confederates withdrew under cover of darkness. Casualties on both sides were light." [Review 13322 overall, 640 of 2020.]

    This PO is more a 3.5 stars, not a full 4, but it shouldn't be considered a 3 either. That's why I…read morethink a 3.5 is fair, as there are a lot more pros than there are cons about the office located inside Sun Harvest Citrus. Pros: * "Service with a smile" - The people I've encountered behind the desk are always warm and welcoming, as they smile and acknowledge you when you get in line, regardless of how long the queue is. * No arguments - If asked to mail something a different way (media mail vs first class, etc), they will say "ok" and ship that way. No questions asked (outside of the normal "anything hazardous, liquid, fragile"), no extra comments, just "sure" and "any stamps today?". * Cleanliness - always clean in the store, as they would have to be. They are attached to a "food processing" plant (of sorts). Sun Harvest is in the same open area, and since the small factory processes all the juice and bundles of fruit, the place has to be a level of dust free. * Watch the packers - There is a viewing window within the Post Office room, where you can watch the workers pack the bins with whatever seasonal citrus is available. Keeps your mind from wandering completely if you're in a long line waiting for a stamp, or just plain old want something to watch for a minute. * Stamp the mail - They actually affix the label / stamp to your package right in front of you. I've been in other post offices where they just hand write the postage to then stamp later. Here, they print the price and affix it to your package right then and there. Cons: * I've only got one con, and I don't know how negative it can be, as I can only think it started at this location - I had mailed a 1 price 1 size box to Massachusetts, and was told it would take two days to get there. A full NINE days later, it arrived at the destination. Having researched a little, the box was bouncing around from facility to facility in the North Shore. I looked at my receipt and it had said the wrong zip code (the girl punched in a 7 instead of a 9) so I think that's why the box kept going around the Commonwealth, looking for a home. I didn't even think to look or question it when it happened. My friend got the package and the zip was crossed out and something written over it (the same zip, only in black Sharpie). The box didn't seem dinged up, but my friend stated the case for the DVD I had sent was busted. The movie seemed fine, however. That's why I don't know how valid the con can be, as it's not completely the fault of this post office. Maybe a fault of the service in general? Who knows. Will I go back to this post office? Hell yes. I love Sun Harvest as it is, and knowing the post office is here, is an added benefit.

    Garbage garbage garbage. Refuse to do their actual job. Why is it so hard to SHUT THE MAILBOX. I…read morehave been complaining about this for two years and I still get home to WET MAIL. I wrote out last names on the inside and outside of the mailbox and still keep getting random people's mail.
