I sent a package to Jim (Keystone_Raider) and when he got the email notification from USPS he tells me dude, that not my address!
So I go back to my history and sure enough there is some bizarre address which I didn't type. I go create a dummy label to see what is happening and sure enough it creates the same wrong address again. It changes "Westmoreland Mall" to "1211 County Home Rd # LBBY" and it changes the zip from "15601" to "15601-8903" which is not Jim's 9-digit zip and Jim has never heard of County Home Rd.
It gets better:
I call USPS web site support and they can't do anything.....I ask if they can help me verify where it is going so I can call them and alert them they will be getting a package that is not theirs. The girls says "I don't know what a DC# is and the 9 digit zip code only indicates the county it's going to"
I call my sister who is a post master in the area where Jim's shop is and she says "oh the people at the web site are dumber that dirt" After explaining to my older sister that mom and dad didn't raise us to be lazy.....get off your lazy ass and do something about it....she laughed and told me to go "F" myself!
It amazes me....the web site people don't know anything about postal services because they are not part of the post office and the postal people recommend you don't use the web site because those people are dumber than dirt and aren't even part of the USPS.
