This page documents the outside sources used for postal rules, product facts, and customer-complaint themes. Public complaints are allegations and are used as buyer-awareness examples, not as proof that every customer has the same experience.

BBB and other public complaint pages contain allegations submitted by customers and responses from the businesses involved. ADDCO does not present those allegations as proven facts or claim they represent every customer. We use repeated themes as a checklist of contract, billing, return, and support questions buyers should resolve in writing.
If you want more detail on anything referenced across our site, just ask. We'd rather show our work than ask you to take our word for it.
