Yes, the lines are definitely long, not because its the city, because its chronically understaffed. Speaking of staff, it seems who they have working there are textbook definition of resigned. Otherwise its USPO- the prices and service are what you would expect any other location. I try to avoid this specific spot but due to proximity, having been around the area forever, I'm always stuck stopping by and burning my time.

Honestly I have had several terrible experiences at this post office (mostly with one specific…read morewindow clerk who I have now witnessed behaving rudely to several other unsuspecting customers as well) but it is the closest one to my workplace so I just brave it. The lines can be long at certain times of day which I just accept now, but that particular employee always says a package cannot be sent out if more than a day from the date mentioned on the shipping label. The issue is if you sell on eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, and other sites, the shipping labels are often created for you when someone purchases an item, so you have minimal control over what date shows up on the label - you are allowed several days to ship out the item per policy on those sites. I have sent out 1,000+ packages over the past few years via several different post offices in NJ and now here in Philly and NEVER heard this until I arrived at this particular USPS. The other post offices in the area have never mentioned this policy either. Also saw this employee yelling at a lady who was visiting from Europe since she was looking at the gift card display which was placed past the "wait here" line - the lady apologized, mentioning she was not from the states and didn't realize the rules. This employee then went on to sarcastically and patronizingly ask her "what, you don't know what a gift card is? You don't have those in your country?" The look on that poor lady's face - all she wanted to do was mail something out. Anyway, awful experience here unfortunately. The one at 720 Arch St has been much more pleasant and is open slightly later too! The one in the subway station by city hall is rarely open on time based on their stated business hours and often closed early so it's hit or miss.

They have a system where one person is out in the line helping people figure out how to send and address things and one person is at the cashier. This makes the line move a lot faster because people don't spend time asking questions at the desk and instead they use the little desk along the line to address their mail. The staff was very friendly and proactive in making the line move. The overall rating here is a 3 but you can see they must have changed something because if you look at the past 2 years yelp rating, it's pretty good.

Haven't had any long waits here, and the staff have been nice to me. I don't have complicated needs, and I don't think I'm complicated to deal with, so your mileage may vary.

A friend of mine mailed me a package from this location but lost her receipt, and with it, the tracking number. It should have been delivered to me weeks ago, but we had no way of knowing what happened to it. So I gave them a call (from Boston) and explained the situation. Bonnie Brown, the supervisor, was extremely helpful and even cut short her lunch break to deal with my problem. She even waited on hold while I talked to my friend on the other line to obtain information (time the package was mailed, last 4 digits of her card, etc). Once she realized that the package still hadn't left a USPS shipping center, she even encouraged us to file a complaint with the customer's affairs department. Thank goodness she was on duty!! I'm taking away a star because I wouldn't be writing this review if it wasn't for my misplaced package in the first place!

The way she talk to him in such a condescending, rude manner. I was in disbelief. The level of customer service is set in hell. Not to mention that she was still talking on the phone throughout my entire transaction as well. Then I'm listening to her conversation as she's complaining about the previous customer in front of me to the person on the phone. I will never go back there again and I don't recommend anyone else do either. If I could give a 0 star rating I would but this platform won't let me.
