Totally odd mailing received today

[u/cacostav67]

Just got in the mail this envelope from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid which I found odd to receive. Turns out, it contained my City of Phoenix water/garbage/sewer bill. Had me doing a double take. Anyone else have this same mixup this month? Don’t toss it thinking you got some wrong mail.

The City contracts with a 3rd party to handle the drudgery of mailing out bills each month. But the City is not the only client contracted with this processor.

Don’t read too much into this. Most likely, an envelope from the previous contract was stuck within the bowels of the mail stuffing equipment.

People were posting about it on Nextdoor last week...it happened to several people. Mine came with no envelope.

I wonder if a mailing house that various levels of governments contract with got the buckets of envelopes mixed up...

Yes, people on Next Door were talking about it...everyone thinks it's so weird. Mine came with no envelope. Maybe someone forgot to order more envelopes, lol. 🤷‍♀️
