    usps error... mailed to return address

    So, logically, 1 of three things could have happened: 1) Something's wrong with the list 2) Something's wrong with the piece design 3) The USPS screwed up. #1 can be eliminated by a very simple test. Take a couple of the cards that were returned, or, randomly take 2 or 3 records from your...

    usps error... mailed to return address

    OP stated that the return address was his own (print provider's) return address. Stamped, or, indicia doesn't matter. At 100 pieces, it would have had to been mailed First Class. The USPS handles First Class as follows: 1) If the recipient has moved, and, the move happened within the last 12...

    usps error... mailed to return address

    How confident are you with the quality of the address? Did you CASS certify the addresses? At a quantity of 100, theyeould have to have been mailed at single piece first class. That means that if there was something wrong with the address, it would have been sent to the return address.

    I used to have a customer call me on Wednesday to print and mail 10,000 pieces, but, they absolutely MUST be in the mail by Friday. I used to take the job and run my guys overtime to make it happen, only because I feared we would lose the job, and, possibly the client if we couldn't. On one...

    After the Holiday

    I didn't really have a choice. Before leaving for Holiday, you spent an entire 8-hour day on hold waiting for tech support. Then, yesterday, I find out that your client is running around town spreading rumors that we are a crafty printer.
