Once when I moved across the county, my mail came for about a month, no problem and then suddenly stopped. All my mail was being returned “No forwarding address”. I had the post master from each of the post offices in the county at my doorstep checking my mail, but no one could fix it. It went on for 8 months. I had to call my bill collectors each month for my balance to be sure I paid. My stock was escheated. It was a nightmare.

You know who fixed it? Congresswoman Carrie Meek. I wrote her office and in less than a week, I got my mail.

Ugh. Mine was a nightmare as well. I didn’t know anything was wrong until a process server showed up on my doorstep with court papers that said, pay up or we’re taking the house back in 14 days. It got into the muddle because of a bank screw up, the postal worker and what I soon discovered dealing with a mortgage company that in the ‘biz’ is consider predatory. Any excuse and they’ll go after a property. So they tried to make contact but not very hard, plus while they were enacting the court stuff they still took my mortgage payments for three months after the screwed one and just held them, so my records showed payments being made which made me none the wiser.
They were really brutal and tried to get more money then they were owed.

Total mess. I had to get a lawyer to do some sort of stop action thing under some sort of consumer protection thing until the mess was sorted. They finally backed down when my lawyer threatened to sue them.
