I usually send letters back with friends, but I had some important mail to send and no friends going back anytime soon, so decided to bite the bullet and go to the post office in POP. Plus, I heard some pretty good reviews here about the service with tracking. What I never saw mentioned is that it costs 2000 pesos per letter and takes one week for delivery. Regular mail is 200 pesos and I was told one to one and a half months for delivery. The post office is open until 2;30pm.

INPOSDOM
Surely it would be easier to send it via CPS (or any of the other companies in that market). Or even DHL / Fedex / UPS? Can't be as much as 2000 pesos per letter and I'd rely on them more than Inposdom.
I have had nothing but the best service from BPS Sosua. I wouldn't use any other courier.
I wouldn't trust Inepts-dom with a rock
I didn't know that any of the couriers send mail out(?). AFAIK, they only receive mail. I was not expecting to pay 2000 pesos. However, a quick check with DHL showed 3700 pesos and 6000 pesos respectively. Insane.
Can you send mail out with them? Good news if true. EPS has great service with tracking for receiving mail. About a week total time on the last letter I received. I'm going to need to mail my ballot to vote soon. I'd hate to have to pay another 2000 pesos.
I don't know about EPS or CPS. I have sent documents to NY and NJ yes
Good news! How much did they charge? I don't think BM Cargo sends mail out either(?).
Tbh, I don't remember it being a bargain, but I do and have done business with them for a long time. They are highly accountable.
Several years ago, BM Cargo had a mail service, too. It was about 2400 pesos while it lasted. The actual carrier was DHL.
This is a problem with most of the courier companies; they will not send to a PO Box.
@cavok I assume you used EPS's "package address" instead of their "letter address" if you were able to see the tracking info? As I recall, they do not track the mail received using the "letter address." I used that address once (and only once) and my item was lost.
Never use anything but EPS package service. Letter service is a thing of the past............Totally unreliable......
When I had to send some documents to Belfast, in the UK, I used DHL. The service was very fast and efficient (about three days, I think) and was tracked all the way. It's amazing how many stops it made en route. I can't remember the cost, but I know I thought that for the service provided it was well worthwhile.
