Has anyone ever had a problem with their returned Netflix discs getting lost in the mail? Over the past 9 months or so, I've reported about 6 or 8 discs lost in the mail. Some were discs that I never received, but most were discs that I sent back.
On Friday, I reported a disc that I sent back almost three weeks ago as lost. Right after I did that, I checked out my rental queue and saw that I had an "Account Problem" notification. I emailed Netflix customer support and they responded saying that I needed to contact the Postal Service Customer Service number and report the problem. Then, when I've received a case number from the USPS, I need to report that to Netflix and they'll do research to try to figure out what's going on.
Is this just me, or shouldn't Netflix be contacting the Postal Service? They have as much information about the problem as I do (I don't write down the dates that I sent back the DVDs)!
I've always wondered about the viability of sending DVDs through the mail in those flimsy paper envelopes. I wonder how many get "eaten" by the USPS sorting machines?
