Take your receipt for EXPRESS MAIL to Post Office. They issue refund on the spot. I believe that is the only postage they refund...
I did collect for two Express Mail last year, which missed Xmas by several days

what if your postage was thru stamps.com? I thought you could get a refund for DC too?
ALso when I check it online this is waht it says:
You entered EK918346877US
Your item arrived at CHARLESTON WV 25350 at 7:10 am on December 22 and is scheduled for delivery.
Here is what happened earlier:
December 21 7:14 pm NOTICE LEFT CHARLESTON WV 25301
December 20 1:58 pm ENROUTE FLUSHING NY 11351
December 20 11:43 am ACCEPT OR PICKUP REGO PARK NY 11374
Is that delivered or not? Freaking it's already the 26!
It's possible that it has been deliverd, but that the Postal Workers portable scanner hasn't be Uploaded into the USPS system yet.
Ask your post office for a REFUND sheet (I have copies here from last year).. that way you can have it ready before you go to the Post Office next time.....
All that & a Bag of Chips Too!!

Looks to me as though there was an attempt to deliver it. I had 2 delivered Christmas day, you might want to check it again.
I'm sorry, did not notice the dates on the previous entrys.

You should be able to get the refund at your local post office, but they cannot process it until the package has been delivered and the information is in the computer system. (just did one yesterday)

Last year, I just took both my receipts (From California to New York) to my regular branch, showed them to Clerk; she checked on her screen: still not delivered, reached in the cash drawer and shelled out nearly 100.00... big, heavy packages..
Don't know why they are having you call the 800 number.
