Is this standard for PO Box services? - GoFuckYourself.com

Just got an affiliates check returned. Was sent in June and they are returning it today as "box closed, unable to forward."

Seven months to return? WTF? Guess I will be seeing more coming in the next few weeks.

It probably sat in the box not being picked up for months, then they didn't renew the box. I get most of my payments via wire so I rarely check my business mail which is 60 miles away. I have about 10 stale checks from ARS

If that was the case, wouldn't I have received the checks written after June also?

Yeah, that's odd.......maybe the genius in the PO is sending them back one by one

That is what I am thinking/dreading.

That smells a bit fishy...

Is it possible they've sorted it into the wrong box? I've had my local PO return a cheque ("no such person") that was 100% properly addressed. The sponsor even sent me a cap of the envelope to prove it. I'm guessing they put it into the wrong box, then the owner gave it back and said "this isn't me"

That sort of situation would explain why you've only seen a single return.

Will find out if the affiliate responds to me.

My business mail po box is around 500 miles away....But you best believe I check that muthafucka at least once a month.
