Following Monday’s report, other Metro Detroit residents reached out to the Help Me Hank Team.
Hank, we have not received mail here in my Birmingham neighborhood for more than a week.
Diane (Birmingham) Big problem here in Westland. I’m not getting my pension check.
Bill (Westland) I saw your story and want you to know I’ve been waiting 1 month for an item I ordered. It says it’s just sitting at the post office.
Melvindale If you are experiencing problems with the postal office you should contact your local post office, file a complaint online, ask your neighbors about their experiences -- and if possible, be patient.
