Have you ever had the wrong city from an order from a delivery company?

Asked by RedDeerGuy1 (24474points) May 20th, 2023

It’s rare, but It has happened to me.

Driver kept calling for directions for a place that didn’t exist.

Eventually we figured it out.

Has this problem happened to you?

No, but have tracked a package in the Untied States Postal Service; go between two distribution centers 90 miles apart three times! Took an extra week to get the item.

I’ve had that happen too @Tropical_Willie. So ridiculous.

I have. The layers of things meant to keep it from occurring that they must go through to make it to my doorstep, is disturbing…

Nope, but I have had mail returned to me because they said they couldn’t find my mother’s address even though I have sent her mail plenty of times. I had to write on the envelope that the address has existed as written for more than 20 years and it was all correct. Then it seems they suddenly found her home the second time.
I have received mail or packages with the wrong street address and or also the wrong zip code or wrong house number. Of course all with the wrong name.
It has gotten less since I have requested the post office only deliver mail with our last name only or that marked resident since they can’t stop junk mail.

No but the street that I live on is a name that is in a bunch of local towns. A few towns around here have the same street name. It has to do with a body of water, and there are a lot of these bodies of water around here. Therefore, it has caused some issues, not with me but with other people who have stuff delivered to the wrong town.
