      I did ship a parcel outside Canada using Canada Post registered mail services on December 22, 2022. I had asked the teller how long it would take for my parcel to reach its final destination and the teller told me maximum three weeks. It's been over a month and my parcel has not yet reached its final destination. I've called customer service and the ticket number given to my claim is *********.

      They told me someone from their claims department would call me to update me on where the parcel is. It's been over a week and I'm Still waiting for the call. Been tracking the parcel (*************) on Canada post tracking platform which tells me the parcel is still in transit with last update dating back to December 23 in Montreal. Whenever I called customer service on several occasions, I've heard customer service representatives say that my parcel was never shipped and that it's still in Canada. I've asked them to cancel the shipping and return the parcel and refund me so I could use a different carrier that is more efficient and they are doing nothing about it.

      The parcel had sensitive legal documents that I spent hundreds of dollars getting them notarized and I would just like to have them back so I can send them using another carrier.

      Thank you for bringing this
      matter to our attention. I was able to find your Service Ticket that was opened
      with Canada Post Customer Care on Jan 30, 2023. This is not the experience we
      want for our customers and regret the stress and any inconvenience this may
      have caused. The tracking has been updated to show item in transit to the destination
      on Jan 29, 2023. We trust that this issue is now resolved based on the scanning
      and the service ticket update. Should you require more information regarding
      your item,  please contact Canada Post
      Customer Service directly at 1-866-607-6301.

      Thank you,

      Complaint: 18939295



      I am rejecting this response because: Canada has not responded to my complaint as required. First I opened a ticket with Canada Post on January 18, 2023 and not January 30 as indicated in the response I received. Secondly, the problem was nothing to do with updating the tracking system. Canada Post has been sitting on my parcel in Montreal since December 22, 2022, when I shipped it. It arrived in Montreal on December 23, 2022 and was never shipped. The parcel left Canada only on January 29, 2023, over one month after I had dropped it at a post office in Ottawa. I've been calling Customer service for two weeks and no one could tell me where the parcel was yet it was in Montreal. Whenever I asked why the tracking system was not updating, they could not give me a clear answer. Infact one of the customer representatives told me that the fault was on the receiving end not updating the system because the final destination country in Africa did not have the  technology. Yet I knew very well that this technology exists in that country. Listen to the calls made regarding this ticket. you will hear that remark. I called again yesterday and was told that my parcel had not been shipped by Xpress mail even after delaying it for this long. So the parcel is going to take  few weeks before it reaches its final destination. It's all lie

      I reached out in Dec 2022 to file a complaint based on horrendous business mail service
      -jan 2020-aug 2020- mail returned, not delivered- dispute with mail carrier over proper numbers, spoke directly-resolved
      -aug 2020-Aug 2021- previous owner still accessing mail- requested several times to have mailbox shifted to a new one/ dispute over were mailbox was located-finally switched to new mailbox
      Aug 2021-Nov 2022- ongoing mail confusion- from no mail for weeks, to chunks of it , to being delivered at my business door that was for anoter business in the building, ongoing random service from no mail for a week to calling in, then getting mail

      Nov 2022- pls see previous complaint filed- I was told by email that iwould be contacted- nothing. I received a brief email end of december stating mail was not delivered owing to snow- the times in question the mailbox was clear, the only time snow covered-was Dec 25-27- 2 of which are not mail days
      I still have no mail-which is my right as a business owner to receive, I do not have another mailbox- I have been told my mail is being returned to sender.

      I have investigated on my own within friends at Canada Post- and have been told by multiple sources-this particular route is an ongoing issue/concern with absenteeism, mail complaints from multiple businesses, the mail carrier in question is inconsistent, awol, off on leave and the service is not adjusted for this. I appreciate leave based on health-but three years of off/on means Canada Post needs to step up and support this person by being more proactive with them. They deserve better. So do I, and so do the business owners also impacted that do not want to speak up. I appreciate canada post is restructuring to solve this issue as it is not just our business. It is impacting my ability as a business owner to receive mail. cheques, CRA has also been informed that mail is not getting to me.

      MY REQUEST- I would like my business mailbox MOVED away from my location close to the business-up to the Canada Post Mail Office on Manitoba Street with 24 hour indoor access. This is a reasonable request. I have not heard from Canada Post, nor from their Omsbudsmen ( sp). Having a secured mailbox at the main office without being charged for this based on the massive inconveneience is a reasonable request. I have been asked by local media if I would like to discuss this problem as one of several business owners but have declined thus far. Please help me get a new mailbox away from this route.

      Complaint: 18901186



      I am rejecting this response because: ***** from Canada Post is looking into . I need a business mailbox. I need my mail redirected to this and I need my mailbox relocated off the current route. There have been numerous complaints about this route and multiple weeks of absences from the carrier over a period of 2.5 years. It is a route that is being re structured according to my sources within Canada Post. What I am asking for is reasonable request and well within my rights as a business and for someone whose mail has been tampered with- which is against the law. I have also reached out to the Ombudsmen back in Dec/Jan and had no response. I will try again with the requests I have put forth as outcomes. Canada Post has denied my mail for over 2 months for no reason other than poor service. Not acceptable.

      I have now gone 3 months without mail

      I was contacted once 3 weeks ago and had to call back over 15 times to get a person- the mailbox on the phone was full.

      I am aware of the post restructuring and the challenges with this specific route and absences- I have asked for my mailbox to be moved to the main office downdown. That was in Dec. Nothing.

      I also tried to file withombudsmen and was rejected.

      I ordered some ***** *********** through ****** and it was supposedly delivered to the address on the packing slip by Canada Post on November 15th @ 11:53. The parcels weren't delivered to the address and I have spoken to Canada Post in Guelph more than 6 times trying to get resolution on this matter. I 1st contacted them on November 24th and they stated that it was more than 3 Business Days after the parcels were apparently delivered. I asked them to locate what address the parcels were delivered and they said that they were delivered to the address on the packing slip. My Girlfriend and I were home on that day and time and the parcels were not delivered to us. Then Canada Post told me to contact my Credit Card company and cancel the payment made to the supplier. They will not reimburse the payment. Then Canada Post told me to contact the supplier and have them resend the order. They also will not do this and Canada Post is not taking responsibility for their wrongful doing. The also told me on November 17th that I was out the funds which is $ 158.54 which is on my ******* *** ********** statement " ***************** ". I asking for Canada Post to take responsibility for their irresponsibly and reimburse the funds.

      again the packaging was purchased and supplid by canada post, i was told that it was the proper packaging to send the items in. The Canada post employee didn't mention that i should put fragile on the package nor did they offer to put a sticker on the package.  I paid for a service and paid for the insurance to insure that the item had the best possible method of shipping that the Canada post employee offered. 

      I would expect that you back up you service I paid for with offering the person with the $80 insurance 

      we are now dealing with better business burro and i fell more comfortable dealing with the issue through this website.

      I am trying to get resolution here for my business mailbox.
      I have a mailbox for *** ********** ****** ** *********** *******.
      We have had numerous concerns- from mail being returned, incorrect mail, other people accessing our mail, incorrect keys, aggressive postal carrier and after 2.5 years- I need to file an official complaint.
      I requested keys back in November. I received nothing by email/phone.
      We do not share a mailbox with another tenant- but we kept receiving items. The mail carrier would indicate they had been delivered- which they had not been.
      As of Dec 6, I had not received anything.
      I went to the main office, and they told me to call.
      I called.
      The next day, I found my old key- and opened the mailbox to find it closed with a piece of cardboard stuffed in it with the word' closed.
      I had no notice/ hone call/ acknowledgement-nothing.
      Neither did Canada Post-who had no record of my key s.
      I called in a complaint, then completed one online.
      No mail for 7 weeks-including cheques that impacted my business.
      The complaint reached out to the mail carrier- who reported back- because of snow, nothing was delivered.
      Absolutely not true- the box had been closed.
      We hhad excessive snow the week of the 24th and 2 days where snow piled above the mailbox made it unreasonable. Understood.
      But this carrier indicated a completely different answer to what the concern was/ why did they close my mailbox, return my mail ( which they had done before incorrectly).

      I need to speak directly with someone to rectify this issue.
      It's clear I need to change my address to one away from this mailbox.
      The treatment from the carrier has been unpleasant and frustrating. I appreciate the stress of the job, and maybe better support from the office would be helpful for route support.
      Perhaps what can come from this, is my mail back, an apology, my business mail re directed to my home address ( where our mail service is awesome) and a follow up

      I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID 18730231, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me HOWEVER the satisfaction will be if they contact me directly ( after 2 months of not dealing with my concerns). I truly look forward to resolving this and hoping this route gets fixed-I am one of 2 businesses in our building who have had multiple concerns over 2.5 years of our mail being mishandled.

      Contracted Canada Post to deliver a small parcel to the UK on Oct. 25, 2022 . Mailing cost was $142.63
      Value of items shipped about $60
      Canada Post advertises their delivery time for my service to the United Kingdom at 4-8 weeks.
      I have used this specific service in the past .
      Believe me it's never 4 weeks!
      In the past this service is always at the 7-8 weeks for delivery .
      Have contacted ***** **** in the UK.
      They assure me they're operating normally, and no service interruptions to report.
      King Charles concurs to this fact.
      Dealing with Canada Post these days poses serious financial risk, and they operate with no oversight.
      Who is responsible for this lack of governance?
      As my time for a **** chargeback of 90 days nears for my purchased shipping service for my "Services Not Received "
      Who enforces Canada Post?
      Who protects the consumer?
      Canada Post clearly advertises one to two months as a delivery standard for my specific purchased service.
      It is with this I place my trust, and purchase their services.
      Why are they allowed to continue to falsely advertise, but not deliver on a promise.
      Something needs to be done.
      Crap service , or no service .
      They gladly take your money tho
      I now ship parcels to the United Kingdom thru ****.
      Also, travellers who frequently travel are paid small fees to drop my parcel in the ***** **** once they arrive in the UK.
      Ingenious, smarter, and faster.

      Complaint: 18714044



      I am rejecting this response because:

      The United Kingdom has received my parcel from Canada Post as of yesterday.

      I have telephoned my sources with the ***** **** in Coventry. 

      It is clearing customs, and will make Shetland Island for delivery by next week.

      This is not a "Hurrah" moment for Canada Post.

      Canada Post advertises delivery to the UK within 1-2 months ( 28-56)

      Why is my package now at the 80 day and beyond?

      I want Canada Post to change it advertising to reflect this truth.

      (ie: 2-3 months) 60-90 days.

      It is with their "Falsehoods " that I base my shipping service decisions. 

      Given the heavy fee I paid of $142.63 , I feel as though something is owed to me.

      I am willing to accept half of the $142.63 as  will of good faith from Canada Post. ($71.31) to restore my confidence.

      I also, have two other parcels heading to family in the UK. 

      They're past due as well.

      I will file chargebacks in succession with my credit card carrier, as they become "Missing"



      Sincerely,
      *** *** ****

      Tracking number: ****************
      Service ticket: **********

      Items was supposed to be delivered to my residential address on Jan 5th but no attempt was ever made to deliver my item, instead it was sent to a local branch for pick up. My tracking number indicates there was a notice card left but this is untrue. There was never any attempt to deliver. I was waiting at my apartment all day, no one rang the buzzer, no one called my number, no one knocked on my door, and there was never any notice card left.

      I called multiple times and spent over 3 hours on the phone with customer service to try and resolve this issue but the branch manager denied their request to resolve the issue and have the package sent out for delivery. Instead, they are telling me I have to go in which is impossible for me due to hardships. I am unable to go to the branch and pick up my package hence why I payed to have it delivered to my door.

      It's also time sensitive items as they are perishable items that need to be kept in certain conditions for optimal use.

      This item needs a signature, I need them to send a driver/delivery person to my address with my package who can accept signatures.
