I need to vent! I am officially DONE using UPS to ship anything.
It seems like everytime I ship something and use their online payment, they end up sending me a bill in the mail for some additional charge! :
I carefully put in the exact length, width and height as well as the weight. I check off residential when it's a house and not a business. I do ALL humanly possible and still, it's never good enough.
Today's bill just takes the cake! I got a bill for $6.00 for an "address correction charge". Ever hear of that one before? I didn't.
The person I shipped to had an address similar to this made up example:
Joe Smith
1377 Cypress
Cypress, Tx. 77409
I used the name/addres that was on the persons Paypal account. What else could/should I do?
The bill I recieved today is for the following correction:
Joe Smith
1377 Cypress Dr
Cypress, Tx. 77409
Did you see the correction between the two? Is that worth $6.00? That's 6 bucks they'll never see. :evil
I'm tired of getting ripped off by UPS. They have their residential surcharges, additional handling surcharges, fuel surchages, dimensional surcharges and what other surcharges. It's ridiculous! There have been other situations in the past as well which is why I cancelled my account with them a while back. I'm tired of getting these surprise envelopes asking for more money.
As for just walking in and paying at one of the customer counters? No thanks! Did you know you pay ALOT more that way? I learned that and that's why I started an online account but no more.
What can brown do for me? Not a damn thing!
Don't get me wrong, the post office ticks me off as well with their constant price increases but I have NEVER had them send me a bill for any additional charges in the 5 years I've been selling on ebay. I use them 98% of the time too.
Thanks for listening, I feel better now.
