The sad, sometimes costly saga of late mail continues to dog readers both in Virginia and around the country. Yet another whoâs experienced it personally is Herb Detweiler of Roanoke.
âYou can add my experience to your long list of sabotaged mail,â he wrote me Feb. 9. âI sent the water company a check for $38.19 on December 28. It never cleared and I had to send a check for $82 to cover December and January last month.
âGuess what? The December check finally cleared today! It only took almost six weeks to go to Greensboro and back to wherever water checks go!â
