My BTM hasn't gotten here yet?
« on: May 04, 2005, 07:37:00 AM »
It usually comes around the 23rd-24th of each month for me (when does your's usually come?), but here it is the 4th of the next month and I still don't have the one from APRIL?

Has anybody else gotten their's yet?

YES!
Call them with your address label; they'll send a new one out immediately.
See the website for the phone number.

I received my April issue on the 26th of April, and I think the latest I've received an issue has been the 29th of the month. I agree with Charlest- call them and they'll be sure to get one out to you.

It seems like they put you on the top of the list for mailing out, the first month, ( as I got my first issue about the 20-24 of the month) and from then on, it's been sometime the first week of the next month when I get mine ( almost like I get left overs). Not real impressed with delivery time of the mag. but I do like the articles or I would tell them where...oh well, I'll be ...nice.

Sorry you're having trouble  getting your BTM. Each month, all of the magazines are mailed between the 15th and 25th of the month from our printer's mailing house in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, getting them to you promptly isn't that high on the USPS list of priorities. If you are  having problems, more than once a year or so, please complain to your local post office. That's the quickest way to improve service. The other readers are correct, just call the office and we'll send you one out from there. Hope this helps.

Working part time for the local Post Office, I can tell you that a magazine is considered 2nd class mail. BUT, once it gets to the local post office which must deliver it, it is treated as first class mail (at least it is in the 2 POs where I work.) Carriers will get a ton of grief from the postmaster if he/she finds out that any 1st and 2nd class is not being delivered immediately!

That said, even carriers are amazed how some mail gets to us at the local PO. We've got no control over that. No idea how it gets to us, by what circuitous route.

I live in Las Vegas makes sense now that i hear it is locally sent out, i always seem to have it before anyone else. I guess being from the bowling tournament capital of the world is good and cheaper to bowl them
