@mwalradt Wow. I've had postage due before but just a couple cents like less than $0.20 and I just paid it and let it go. I'm quite shocked at the amount that was due for you.
@snapster@mwalradt My understanding is that USPS will redeliver packages "locally" without additional charges. I assume that "2 towns over" would not be considered local.
@gio@snapster@mwalradt that rule changed a couple years or so ago. Local was same town. Now it is postage plus a $3 service fee. (This fee likely changes next month with the other price changes. I can check if anyone wants to know.)
@snapster i had this issue last time i moved and ordered buy.com with free shipping, if smart post is forwarded, the usps gives you a choice of paying the fee(it was $7 for me) or return to sender. (it was forwarded over 200 miles away)
Never happened to me and I've ordered a good amount of stuff from meh.
Is Smartpost not paying their bill to the Postal Service?
Curious.
How much was due?
Did you pay it?
Did you contact support?
@cengland0 $7.35
And not yet to any of your other questions

Is your mail being forwarded?
@speediedelivery this one was yes i had to move sooner then expected. I moved 2 towns over
@mwalradt So there is your answer
@gnext2 yup, smartpost doesn't forward for free
@fernikfurra interesting - that seems logical but it's a first I've heard of it happening.

I'm sure somehow it is @narfcake fault.
Never heard of this but def @narfcake s fault
Actually this is the fault of the postmaster general..
Shame on him!!
Thank you, @unkabob! Snailpost fulfilled their end of the delivery, so my blame ended there, @mwalradt. :P
@unkabob... @unixrab is @BarackObama
@er1c ... Wait a minute! I'm confused.. Is @unixrab BarackObama or is @BarackObama unixrab? You must be specific.
@er1c @unkabob
