Can i modify a hold mail request
Yes, you can modify a hold mail request in most cases. Here are the general steps to follow:
- Contact the post office: Reach out to the post office where you submitted your hold mail request and ask to speak to a supervisor or a customer service representative.
- Provide your request: Inform the representative that you would like to modify your hold mail request. Be prepared to provide your name, address, and the original hold mail request number (if you have it).
- Specify the changes: Clearly state what changes you would like to make to your hold mail request. For example, you might want to:
- Change the date range for which you want to hold your mail.
- Add or remove a specific type of mail (e.g., packages, certified mail, etc.).
- Change the address where you want your held mail to be sent.
- Confirm the changes: The representative will verify the changes and confirm that they can be made. They may also ask for additional information or documentation to support the changes.
- Receive a new confirmation: Once the changes are made, the representative will provide you with a new confirmation number or a revised hold mail request number.
Some things to keep in mind:
- The post office may have specific rules or restrictions on modifying hold mail requests, so it's a good idea to check with them first.
- If you're modifying a hold mail request that was submitted online, you may need to contact the post office in person or by phone to make the changes.
- Be prepared to provide identification and proof of residency to verify your identity and address.
It's also important to note that modifying a hold mail request may not always be possible, especially if the original request has already been processed or if there are issues with the mail being held. In such cases, you may need to cancel the original request and submit a new one with the desired changes.
