We monitor reviews for authenticity
So far all has been as advertised and expected. Thank you!
We use another virtual mail service as well, and compared to that one, iPostal is slower and more expensive.
*It takes at least a full day for my mail to be consolidated after it has been received, and nothing happens on the weekends.
*Mailing things to me takes at least one day past my request.
*A few times, they sent mail USPS instead of UPS which caused problems on my end, and my mail was not delivered but returned to sender, so I had to pay twice to have it shipped to me as well as all the extra time it took for the USPS to return the package.
*The cost is more since you have to pay to pick up mail, and the costs for the various mail carriers to deliver is also more than our other service.
IPostal is great in so many ways. You receive emails when you have new mail. You can see images of the mail in the app. You can even schedule a pick up for the mail you want. You can trash it within the app, if it's junk mail or shred it (for a fee) if it contains sensitive information. My only complaint is the fee when you pick up mail. It's only $1, but after paying the monthly fee, I think it should be no cost at all.
Hi J O,
Thanks for your review. We are glad to hear that you are happy overall with our digital mailbox service.
At iPostal1, we offer the low monthly price of $9.99 at most locations and charge for other services on a pay-as-you-go basis, since many people do not use other services like pickup. Since it does take time and labor to process a pickup task, there is a nominal charge. All fees for the Optional Services provided are listed on the Pricing page on our website and details on pickup fees are available by each address listing.
Sincerely,
IPostal1
Everything is working great. Service is convenient and as expected.
Simple and easy to use. I have no issues with this service
As expected, easy to use, prompt delivery, delivery choices
Everything is working as expected. It was easy and convenient. Thank you!
I am greeted, id is checked and upon signature my mail is handed over to me.
Exactly what I expected! Great service and cost. Would recommend.
Nothing that I can think of so I don't have anything to add here
They will charge you a renewal fee and then revoke your privileges and delete your mailbox even though you just you paid for an entire year. If you contest the renewal fee through your credit card company, they send a fake e-mail indicating they are busy but will be back in touch about helping you set up your mailbox (this is a 100% fake email to trick your credit card company to deny your protest of the charge).
Hi Janet,
Thanks for your review. We are sorry about the issues you described
According to our records, you had 2 accounts. One that was opened on 4/20/17 and canceled on 4/10/23 and another that was opened on 7/24/22 and canceled on 7/24/23. Your account automatically renews. You can stop automatic renewal by cancelling your subscription any time before the next billing date. If you dispute the charge with your bank, this does cause an immediate closure of the account. Our team did send an email informing you of this, and stated that if this occurred in error, to reach out so that we can assist in reopening your account.
Sincerely,
IPostal1
The process was simple. Once my documentation was received, I was approved quickly
I was in tears trying to get this set up. No one ever called me to tell me what I was missing. I had to find a ipostal1 location in San Antonio for help. It cost me $87 to have a package forwarded. That was completely unexpected and I thought it would be part of the service. I am also now finding out there are NO scans covered in my package and I have to pay for that. When I put in my change of address at the post office it would not take it because the address did not exist. Somehow I THINK its working but no one ever told me where to forward the mail to. So. I am thinking I should have went with a different service because this is nickel and diming me to death.
Hi Pamela,
Thanks for your review. We are sorry about the issues you described.
The USPS requires the Form 1583 be completed, notarized, and filed with proper IDs. This is required in order for the mail center to accept mail on your behalf. If forms are submitted, they are reviewed and approved if in order. If you did file forms, they should have been approved so your mail could be received, or you should have been notified about what is missing or incorrect. Our records show that we did email you about your 1583 forms.
Forwarding pricing depends on the package, carrier and service level selected. We are the only digital mailbox service to show real-time shipping prices for each mail item, so you can pick the option that best meets your needs and budget.
While we scan the front of every envelope or package, if you would like to have a particular piece of mail opened and the content scanned, you can request this from your online interface or the app. To clarify, pricing for all ‘Optional Services’ is posted on the Pricing pages on our website. Our goal is total transparency. Our strategy is to charge the lowest monthly mailbox fee possible and then charge customers only for the optional services they choose, like forwarding, scanning mail content, or mail pickup. We believe this is the fairest way to price, so people who don’t need optional services do not subsidize those who do. Be sure to take advantage our discount content scan/shred bundles to save money.
Regarding mail received at your center, it all depends on the actions you take. If you file a Temporary Change of Address at your local post office, then all your first-class mail from all senders will be forwarded to your iPostal1 address. Otherwise, only the senders you inform, whether business or personal, will know to send mail to your iPostal1 address. We do recommend filing the Temporary Change of Address in person to ensure that the correct address is being entered.
We do have a Customer Service phone line that is available Monday-Friday 9am-8pm EST. They can be reached at 845-579-5770 and are always happy to help.
Sincerely,
IPostal1

Answer: Hi Elayne, Thanks for your question. You can find Office Buildings and Coworking Spaces under the locations tab on our website. We're happy to be able to say that we've had thousands and thousands of customers that have been able to successfully use our addresses for DMV, business, banking purposes and more. Throughout the years that we have offered our digital mailbox services, we've found that each institution/state has their own software and guidelines that are followed to verify the addresses. We highly recommend directly contacting the institution(s) that you are hoping to register your iPostal1 address with to confirm if it will be acceptable. We understand that there is a possibility that not all of our addresses may work for all purposes, and because of this we do provide you with a 30-day grace period. You're welcome to try us out - and if you end up closing the account within 30 days of signup because you couldn't use the address, you can reach out to us to request a full refund of your subscription payment. Sincerely, IPostal1
Answer: Hi Maxine, Thanks for your question. Our Virtual Office phone line allows you to receive calls and voice mail messages, so you don't have to use your private phone for business. However, some of our Office Building locations do provide live-answering services. This is something that you will need to pay them for directly, separate from your iPostal1 subscription. You can find more information about our Virtual Office plans and how the phone lines work on the FAQ pages on our website. Sincerely, IPostal1
Answer: Hi Jena, Thanks for your question. You are able to receive and pick up packages at any of our locations. Please be sure to check out pricing for all our services, like pickups and storage, on the Pricing page and by the address listing of each address on our website. Sincerely, IPostal1

Answer: Hi Michael, Many entrepreneurs starting a business use a real street address from iPostal1 to establish their businesses. Sincerely, IPostal1
Answer: Hi Danielle, Thanks for reaching out. You can pick any location for your mailbox, regardless of where you live. Please make sure that the address on your ID matches the home address you put on your Form 1583. If you have any questions about your filling out the Form 1583, please write to us at [email protected] or contact us via chat. Sincerely, IPostal1
Answer: If you have a tracking information that shows the package was delivered to the store, then first step is to work with the store to confirm receipt and look for the package. If that does not work and store claims they never received or can't find the package, then you need to consult with the iPostal1 Customer Service team at [email protected] about next steps.
Answer: Given your specific needs, it pays to do a little homework before deciding which state or city will work best for you. Thousands of customers have used our service to register their business or for their DMV needs. However, in Oregon, Missouri, Washington State, and California, we suggest that you check with government agencies to determine what you can or cannot do with your virtual address. For banking, some banks or credit card companies may not accept transferring your address to your iPostal1 address, so best to check with them ahead of time.
