Usps
USPS strikes again

I just went to the Post Office (contract outlet) to purchase some postal

Stamps. When I made my selections and started to pull out my debit

Card, I was politely told that USPS will not accept any more

Debit/Credit cards! It was explained to me that the Post Office does

Not want to pay the fee that the credit card companies charge for retail

Use of the Debit/Credit card. This became effective about a week ago -

And I haven't seen anything in the press regarding this. Needless to

Say, I walked out of the store without making my purchase since I carry

Neither cash or checks.

So now we are required to pay for stamps with checks or cash! I will be

Doing more bill paying via the bank (until they start charging for this

Service).

Is there anything that the USPS won’t stoop to get more $? And, on May

12 the first class rate (among other rate increases) goes to. 42 for a

Letter/card, etc. I think the USPS has really gone too far this time.
