I had a very disappointing experience with the UPS Store in Salinas due to a lack of knowledge…read moreabout the shipping services they offer. The day before my trip from California to Pennsylvania, I called to confirm that I could drop off my live leopard gecko for overnight shipping. According to UPS policies, certain live animals, including non-venomous reptiles, can be shipped through approved services. I had already purchased the shipping label, had the proper packaging, and had documentation from the reptile shipping company confirming that the shipment was authorized. My main interaction was with the manager at this location. He repeatedly told me that the shipment could not be accepted and insisted it was a USPS shipment, not UPS. I explained multiple times that it was a UPS label and shipment, but he continued to tell me otherwise. The way the conversation was handled made me feel like I was being dismissed rather than listened to. I also called the other Salinas UPS Store location for a second opinion and was simply told they would not accept it. Because I was told the shipment would be refused, I had to contact the reptile shipping company directly. Thankfully, they were extremely helpful and arranged for someone to pick up my gecko from my home. Unfortunately, the pickup didn't occur until around 6:00 PM, after the cutoff time for overnight shipping, causing an unnecessary delay and additional stress right before my cross-country trip. Fortunately, the next day, while I was already in Pennsylvania, the shipment was picked up on time and my leopard gecko arrived healthy and safe. This entire situation could have been avoided if the staff were properly informed about approved live animal shipments through UPS. I am grateful to the reptile shipping company for stepping in and resolving the issue, but I was very disappointed by the misinformation I received from this UPS Store. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Accepted and Prohibited Live Animals This is a comprehensive list of live animals accepted for transportation.

I remember that during COVID I had used this place before and drove by to see if it was open. It was! They are super quick they gave me a receipt for my items.

Lilian had me grab my receipt from the machine so we had zero contact. It took less than a minute to be in and out of the store during lunch time. I highly recommend this place!

I have been using Central Coast for return package servicing for a few years now and have always…read moreappreciated the easy drop-off and receipts, allowing me to track my return item's progress through the system. Unfortunately, on June 29, I had a very disappointing experience with Lillian. I was returning two packages, and I needed to pay USPS shipping costs for one of the items. Lillian pulled the options up on the monitor and I selected USPS Ground as the most economical way to ship the return item with tracking. Lillian asked me, "Are you a business, because USPS Ground is only available to businesses." As I am not a business, I then selected a non-tracked option for the return, as the only other choices were equal in cost to the value of the item I was returning, much more than the ~$8 USPS Ground would have cost. Afterwards, I contacted the USPS to check whether the information Lillian had provided was correct on whether USPS Ground shipping was only available to businesses because the more I thought about it, the more I thought this was wrong. USPS confirmed that Lillian had lied to me - see https://www.usps.com/ship/ground-advantage.htm. I have no idea why Lillian provided me with false information which made the return tracking options so much more costly, but I will never use Central Coast again for my shipping needs. It may be a bit more inconvenient to go to UPS or USPS directly, but I would rather spend a few minutes in a line than be deceived by Lillian. With her many years in this business, I have no doubt that she clearly knows the rules by now, making her deception deliberate and for what, to scam a few extra bucks off me? Shameful.

Dear [USPS Manager/Customer Service],…read more I am writing to bring to your attention an issue I recently experienced when calling USPS. I contacted your office for assistance in tracking down my mailbox number. During the call, the representative I spoke with was dismissive and unprofessional. He stated that helping me was "a service" and that he "didn't have to help me at all." Shortly after, he hung up on me. I understand USPS staff are often busy, but I reached out because I genuinely needed assistance. Instead of being treated respectfully, I felt belittled and disregarded. This experience left me disappointed and concerned about the level of customer service being provided. I would appreciate it if this matter could be looked into and if you could advise me on the appropriate next steps to both resolve my mailbox inquiry and ensure future interactions are more professional. Thank you for your time and understanding. Sincerely, Rebekah Muñoz
