That's not a good idea whether you're being videotaped or not...

Most letter carriers are fine human beings, but once in a while, they snap and go postal! Guess that's where the term comes from....hahaha

The term 'going postal' came from a mass shooting at a post office by a post office employee. Not from someone dumping mail in a dumpster.

I wonder what happens if, say, your credit card bill was in one of those bins that got dumped into the trash and you never got it. Are you responsible for paying the late fee on a bill you never received? Does the USPS have any legal responsibility to deliver your mail? If they fail to deliver your mail, do they face any consequences, or is the mail (non) recipient left holding the bag?

thats a good question just a shame having a good job like that usually they make a decient wage and just throw it in the dumpster with the mail the next job will be a pizza delivery job if they will even hire them now.

This happens over and over. I've seen stories like this many times over the years. One guy actually had an apartment full of mail he never delivered.

Been there! Yes, you wind up responsible. No way to prove you didn't get it. I had a problem with my Paypal credit card. They refuse to send a paper bill, they send a bill by email. And when you don't use that card every month, you're not looking for that bill. I wound up late and went through all my received email and it was never there. No doubt AOL dumped all their bills as spam. I called to complain and their line was "you should know"... whether they bill you or not!

"Excellent ... ha ha ha ... excellent ... !!"

Yes, you wind up responsible. No way to prove you didn't get it.

And they have no way to prove you did get it.

Looks like a case for a sharp lawyer.

Those would be funny if my daughter had not become a lawyer a few months ago. : )

A woman and her daughter were visiting the cemetery to pay respects to the child's grandmother. On the way back to the car the little girl asks, "Mommy, do they ever bury two people in one grave?"

The mother looks at her daughter and says, "Why, of course not! Whatever would make you think that?"

The little girl replies, "Well, I saw a tombstone that said 'Here lies a lawyer and an honest man'."

The tough part is that these are small charges that aren't worth engaging a lawyer. Most go unchallenged because it's too much trouble to fight considering your only contact is with rude people in some foreign land that pretend they don't speak English. And you aren't going to fix them, that's their predator profit program. Yea, they break laws on purpose.

There is a mortgage processing company called Ocwen that took over all the GMAC business when they failed. Ocwen has the worst customer service rating the BBB has ever given out. They have many class action suits against them and lose them regularly. They have been convicted of fraud over and over, and just pay the fines. Still the government has allowed them to exist, and continue to pull scams on their clients. Nobody ever chooses to have their mortgage serviced by Ocwen, mortgages get assigned to them by the actual lien holder. Try fighting a charge with them.
