r/USPS on Reddit: How do you cancel a missing mail service request?
January 7, 2019 -
Opened a reference case for a missing mail, but it ended up appearing after someone from a different apartment # returned the package after it was wrongly delivered. Is there anyway to cancel a missing mail reference so USPS knows it's been found?

February 1, 2025 - They never find anything based on a Missing Mail Search anyway - and if they do, it's by accident, not from a Missing Mail Request. Get your local postmaster to contact the last place it was shown at and ask them what the problem seems to be.

r/usps_complaints on Reddit: Has anyone had success with a "Missing Mail Search" on USPS?
December 21, 2022 -
I had a fairly valuable priority mail flate rate bubble envelope shipped to me. The package was initially scanned in at a distribution center in NY. There were no updates for a week and I submitted a help request form.
USPS actually called me (which surprised me) and stated there has not been a physical scan for a while. She said I should file a "missing mail claim" and they she flagged the shipment. She continued that sometimes just flagging the package will have it moving again. I submitted the missing mail form last week, but there have not been any updates on it.
I have a small hobby business and ship USPS A LOT. I've had packages take a long time to be delivered, but I've never ran into a package having a single scan then never having an additional scan for multiple weeks. At this point, I'm wondering if I should keep patient or submit an insurance claim? There is insurance on the package, but the contents are sentimental as well as valuable and I'd rather have the package.
Has anyone submitted a Missing Mail Search with USPS and have it work? Additionally, if anyone has any input on filing an insurance claim, I'd be interested in that as well. Thanks!

They’re as useless as usps is as a whole. They’ll tell you after the 6 months passes that basically it’s your fault something was lost. Zero accountability. They never look into anything it’s just an automated system.

Not to burst any bubbles- I shipped a package worth about $7,000 on 12/29. The only scan on my tracking was the acceptance scan. I filed a missing package search on 1/12 (figured I’d let the holidays pass) and still nothing. So I filed my insurance claim the other day and am not-so-patiently waiting. I’ve talked to the postmasters from the destination post office, the distribution center (Detroit), and the recipient post office. No one knows anything. No one can give any updates. It’s beyond frustrating.
