Postal worker opened my mail???

I went to my mailbox last night and when i got home i went through my mail and realized that one of the envelopes that had my dental insurance cards had been opened? i dont know if anything else was suppose to be in the envelope, but the only thing that was there was my cards. which has my name, and my husbands name, my address and last 4 of my SS# on it. i'm not really sure what to do in this situation, and if the post office will take me seriously.

i had a bad experience in the previous state i lived in where my mail was "lost" to my forwarding address, and a couple months later someone open a credit card using my account #. i filed a bunch of complaints with that postal office but never felt like they cared.

has this happened to anyone else?Postal worker opened my mail???
i haven't filed any complaints as of yet, but i've had some issues recently with them.



what used to take 1 week to get/send takes 2 weeks+ now.

priority take 5 business days to get here, it used to take 2.

the slower times started in the beginning of december, that was fine for xmas, but this is the end of freaking march already.



my mail (and packages) keep getting sent to someone else's address... that doesnt even look similar besides the road starts with a b.



and just a couple weeks ago i've had two credit card application junk mails come out of the mail truck, already open.



i've called the p.o. about the mail times taking twice/three times as long, and their answer was, "we have no reason to hold mail. we don't hold your mail, sorry. it comes in and goes straight to your house. we don't hold. click*"



so i know where you're coming from.Postal worker opened my mail???
There is a chance that your letter got caught up in the sorting machines and damaged. Just because its opened doesn't mean he is the one who did it. Sometimes it will be stamped damaged or sometimes it gets overlooked and sent on.

May I recommend that you go to the Post Office and open a box so that if there is anything important that you need sent to you or your husband that it will be sent to the box and only you or your husband will be albe to open the box.



You did mention that you went to your mailbox last night and got the mail that one of the envelopes was open that had your dental info in it. To me it sounds like the mail carrier did not open it because the other piece's weren't open and the carrier had already left the area. So please don't say the carrier open your mail with out the proper proof.



Also, I bet your mailbox doesn't have a lock on it either.
