Address Change with Post Office
Since when does the USPS mandate that all address changes be done online, with a credit card? WTF? I can no longer fill out the form in person at the post office? I HAVE to give a credit card now, when changing my address? Granted, they only charge a dollar, but seriously, WTF is up with that?

Granted I have a computer and a credit card, but there are certainly people who don't have one or the other. What are they supposed to do?

Did the local PO tell you this?

Try a different post office, tell them you don't have a computer. It would be interesting to hear their answer. I'm probably overly security conscious. I've yet to post a credit card number online. When amazon said I could no longer pay by check, they lost me as a customer.

Liz went to the PO to get a form, today. All that was there was a slip of paper (instead of the traditional address change form) telling her to go online to do the deed.

You could open an account and get a debit card-->transaction-->close account, but that still doesn't answer your question.
Seriously, WTF. Talk to a supervisor and document. Mabye they were out of those forms(?) |

If you have a Citibank CC, they have a program that will create a CC # that is valid for one use only. See if you can do something like that. I think the one dollar charge is a way of cutting down on fraudulent address changes, although this opens up other ways to commit fraud.

Yes, that online form is at the post office, I saw them, but you can also go to the window and do it in person.
No charge. Did it last week. Mail is being forwarded. |
