What should I do in this situation?

About a month ago I got a new phone from t-mobile. I requested a new one because the old one got damaged. I in return had to send the old one back. I packaged the old phone and was on my way to the post office. My sister told me to give it to our mailman who we've known for years. I gave it to him and he said he would take care of it.

I got a message from t-mobile saying they never got it. And are now charging me $900 for the device. I went to my mailman and asked if he sent it. He looked shocked and denied never getting it from me. I went to the post office and asked them if they received a package. They requested a tracking number which I don't have.

Now my service has been cut off and can't afford to pay the $900 penalty. I am honestly pissed off. Partially at myself, I knew I should have went to the post office.

That’s why I never give it to the mail person. I want proof I sent it with a tracking number, or proof of delivery. Now you know your mail carrier is dishonest. You could report him/her, although if they don’t fire him/her, your mail may go astray.
