I'd heard rumors about USPS fricking up Prime, and today it happened to me. Not cool.

Amazon pretended like my package would get here today by 8pm. But here we are at almost 9pm, and I have no faith that a government employee is still laboring away.

Same thing happened with me. I'm sure it's just a Prime Day rush.

Oddly enough, my recent bad experiences have been with UPS and FedEx. No complaints with USPS.

I got a delivery today, no problem. But mine came Fed-Ex ground.

U always get screwed when UPS or FedEx passes off to USPS for delivery. The postal service is pretty worthless at this point.

It's Amazon's fault for putting my package in the hands of the government.

If you pay me for a service, and I pay a four year old kid to do it, it's my fault when he completely fails.

I just recently had a 2 day prime shipment show up late on day 3. Funny thing is tracking showed it was delivered on day 2 so the next day I was calling around trying to see where it was figuring it went to wrong address on accident, but nope it showed up late that evening.

USPS screwed up. Amazon's mistake was trusting them.

Well when you find a delivery service that doesn't frick up, bump this thread and let us know.

I rarely have an issue FedEx or UPS. Good companies.

I always like when USPS updates the first leg of my tracking information 4 hours after I get my package.

Did you order some 3rd party shite through Amazon and you're calling that Amazon Prime?

I ordered a bunch of groceries today from Amazon Prime Now. I was able to choose my two-hour window for delivery. Everything came within 30 minutes.

Nope, Amazon Prime is not screwing up. But, YMMV I guess.

Your one shipment coming one day late (maybe) surely is the tipping point

That aside, in years past ive seen shipping companies extend service into the evening after prime day or other extremely major shipping dates. Latest I've had was like 10 one time.

Amazon will give you a free month of prime if a package doesn't make its delivery date. Regardless whose fault.

It's actually their policy and if the first guy you talk to says it isn't then tell them it is.

I've had far more issues with FedEx than any other shipping. This is in Lafayette, I like USPS.. they deliver
On Saturday and even Sundays

Yeah, I got an extra discount on prime day. Over $200 in stuff for $68. All delivered on time even though they said it will be late. Definitely screwed up that one. I will take it
