Where do T shirt photos go? I sent you one, as I was not able to get the TUG Banner at Mizner resort. Can you combine t shirt photos with Banner ones?

Banner MIA

Hi Brian and Fellow Tuggers,
Our Banner is MIA. I was at Mizner Resort. Another TUG member sent the banner to me c/o Mizner Resort. I went to the front desk, they said they had it, but would not give it to me because I did not have the tracking number. I had my photo ID but they said that was not enough. I asked them to return it to sender. The clerk agreed. Well it has been 2 weeks and the sender has not recieved it. I called Mizner again on Saturday. They admitted to having the package and said they sent it back. The clerk went to look for it and it was no longer there, so he said it must have been sent.
I hope it turns up in the sender's mail. Just want you to know it is out there somewhere!

$7,000,000 plus money saved by TUG for new users.... score 7M for TUG.

$50 TUG banner 'mysteriously' disappears at Mizner... score 50 for TS.

7 million to 50. That's not too bad....

Sorry about the banner....

 

[TUGBrian]

the lost ones in the past have eventually turned up (there is an address on the back to return it to)

long as we still have one in rotation!

ill see if i can find another one around here somewhere!

Lose some Find Some

I have a banner that could use a new home. I could send it off now or in mid November. We are doing Sedona, Antelope Canyon, Monument Vally, Meteor Crater, Phoenix starting end of October.

PM or email if you want to request delivery. I will not send it care of Mizner.

Sorry, guys! It is partially my fault. I returned from Nova Scotia on a Sunday and Monday was my first day back after a week and a half of being out and I never got the chance to mail out the banner that Monday. I knew the time between my trip and silentg was tight, so I sent the banner to the resort so they wouldn't miss out. I even put both their names on it and when they were checking in. Sadly, the resort seems to lack customer service skills and even when offering ID, silentg still could not get the package. It has been a couple weeks since they supposedly sent it back. I'm hopeful, but skeptical it ever got send back to me. I hope the resort proves me wrong.

 

[silentg]

I am afraid to ask for it again. I will wear my TUG shirt at my next resort.
No one 's fault except for Mizner, anyone own there?

I would not be afraid to contact the Postal Inspectors for that area and let them know that the resort refused to give you YOUR mail upon showing a photo ID and now they claim they don't have it.

The post office does not take these things lightly, get the tracking number from the sender and pursue this.

I would not let them off the hook.

 

[TUGBrian]

that is pretty ridiculous that the package had your name on it and they refused to give it to you.

 

[Passepartout]

I don't know about a 'postal inspector', but the local Postmaster in that zip code should be made aware of the situation. (that the resort wouldn't provide the package to the addressee who provided ID)

I'd make a small unspecified wager that the parcel they (the resort) claim to have mailed back to sender ended up in a nearby dumpster. Out of sight, out of mind.

i would need the tracking number from NH Traveler to start the search? PM me that if you have it?

Tracking sent. The package was insured but because it was delivered to the resort, I'm sure that nullifies that insurance because it is a resort issue, not a PO issue. It showed they delivered it, which was their job.

 

[csxjohn]

The postal inspection service would be my choice. This looks a lot like mail theft to me and what ever the package was insured for should be coughed up by the person who sidetracked the package.

I say this is theft because the person who had the package refused to hand it over to the addressee.

I finally got the banner back. It looks like they returned it to the post office after silentg contacted them last week. With that said I will take the banner to South Carolina next weekend and then mail it to her house while I'm still in South Carolina. I'm just glad they didn't toss it out but still disappointed that they didn't give her the package while she was there since her name was on it. They had the banner sitting there for 2 weeks. At least we still have the banner.
