We have always seperated the Netflix seperately. For about three weeks, sometime around April,we were told to put them in the outgoing mail and not handle them seperately. That didn’t last too long. We now have to hold out only the Netflix and tray them by themselves. Netflix needs to change the packaging they use for thier disks. We are providing special service for something they don’t pay for. The postal service is going broke and still give certain mailers special treatment and they don’t have to pay for the special handling.

At the North Houston Mail Processing Center, Neither Netflix or Blockbuster DVDs are seperated from the automated equipment. The Supervisors must have missed this memo cause they tell us to run them on the DBCSs.

I don’t think I’ve ever heard a customer who wasn’t happy with the Netflix, Blockbuster, or Gamefly services or the P.O.’s handling of them.

It’s amusing. We separate Netflix mailers we pick up during the day.
And then we deliver Netflix mailers in the DPS that are often damaged.
The right hand doesn’t know what the left is doing.

Netflix and blockbuster get a abou4 manhours daily to face tray and sleeve. Operators get in trouble if they gget through their machines! while gamefly is sent with metered flats at best, if it gets into AFCS ist gets rejected and recycled over and over…. I’ll bet half of those braek. maybe 3or 4 a day and those games cost 70 dollars! BUT they do get discounted postage!!!!

In our office, ALL CD and DVD mail is supposed to be placed in trays before being sent to the plant. We have one for Netflix and one for all others.

Yep, outgoing Netflix have to be seperated into their own 1/2 tray at our small post office. They are however coming in our DPS (that started about the 2nd day of our mailcount — but at least it has continued since then). We used to seperate by letter and flat, now it is by stamp and “other” postage.
