USPS has held my parcel for 30 days with no scan. Is that normal for this route or should I start the process?
Filing the paperwork early is worth more than arguing later about whose fault it was.
USPS scans are generated at the hub, so a silent tracking page is not evidence of a problem for the first 30 days.
Has the handling changed recently for anyone else?
File early.
Same here.
A privacy service registered three months ago on a domain claiming twenty years of trading is a contradiction.
Check the register yourself rather than trusting the number printed on the site.
File early.
Same here.
Same for me with a scanned-as-delivered parcel, unfortunately.
Silent tracking in the first week is normal. Scanning happens at hubs, not continuously.
What do you do about the fee? Do you just pay it?
Reminder that a tracking number is not required in the post, but the dates and the carrier are.
How do I find the national register if I do not read the language?
“Dispatched” means the label was printed. That is the entire meaning of the word.
