What to do... US Postal Money order not received.

This happened to me. Someone priority mailed me a check. It arrived 14 days later. Isn't the U.S. Post Office wonderful!!!

Just wait a few more days. In the future, avoid Priority Mail.

I use priority mail all the time, but I pay the 0.50 more for the delivery confirmation....gives you a tracking number to follow should it get delayed.

It could happen with any shipping company (UPS, USPS, Fedex, DHL, Airborne Express, etc.)

Next time make sure to get either USPS delivery confirmation or signature confirmation options. It only costs .50 cents or $1.25 and you will be able to track it down through the USPS Internet Web site or by calling their toll free number.

This option will not garantee the arrival of you letter or package but is a safe way to have an eye on it. Also it will make it simple when they trace it in the case you start a formal investigation.

In my personal experience I had never lost a money order send via USPS Priority mail, but I have had some delays a couple of times.

On the other side UPS (United Parcel Service) lost a certifierd for $3,000.00. Finally I got a replacement check from UPS, but it took eight (8) weeks and a lot of energy.

I hope this give some hope. Be patient !

Good Luck !

I have had priority mail take 14 days coast to coast. If you need to get it there fast, use overnight.

Someone sent me two pieces of mail at the same time Priority and it took 2 days for one to arrive and the second one 10 days. It was only going about 400 miles. Who knows how they got separated that badly?
