I got through using the Help Desk. I believe I did have to go through some options. After going through the options it told me there would be a 45 minute wait. I could either wait 45 minutes, or leave my number and they'd call me back. I chose leave my number, and have them call me back. They actually did call me back. I have 2 numbers for USPS. 1-800-222-1811 is supposed to be a secret number to the Help Desk they just don't give out. 1-800-275-8777 (which is their standard number) was the number they did the return call from.

r/USPS on Reddit: Here is how to speak to a real person when calling USPS customer service.
February 28, 2017 -

Here is how to speak to a real person when calling USPS customer service.

Dial 1-800-ASK-USPS (1-800-275-8777)

It will ask for your zip. Dial your zip code. (or speak it)

It will ask about privacy policy. Dial 2. (or say NO)

It will ask about customer survey. Dial 2. (or say NO)

It wlil start listing menu options. Dial 1. (or say PACKAGE)

It will start listing submenu options. Dial 1. (or say TRACKING)

It will ask about letters in the tracking number. Dial 2. (or say NO)

It will ask you to say the tracking number. Ignore it and say CUSTOMER SERVICE.

You should finally get connected to a customer representative or be given the choice to continue waiting in line or be called back when your turn is ready. Only the last step above requires actual voice input. The voice recognition software that USPS uses is awful so dial your answer whenever you can.

USPS Customer Service Chat - US Global Mail
July 22, 2022 - Right out of the gate, it’s important to mention that there is no currently available USPS customer service chat tool like you might find with some of the other popular shipping companies in the United States today. While both FedEx and UPS provide online live chat support through their customer service, USPS has been a little slower to adapt this kind of technology – and it’s just not available on the platform (yet).
