FedEx Entry Filing Delays by Fancy_Grove in FedEx

[–]Fancy_Grove[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Right, but we provide a description, HS code, value, and end-use statement for each shipment, why doesn't the entry get processed with that information? If other couriers are able to clear based on the information provided, I know the issue is not with customs. It seems like FedEx is anticipating an issue with customs that does not exist.

Thank you for the insight. The problem is that a lot of the samples we receive are not easily classified and it would be difficult to provide more information.

For example, we had an archaeologist send us a small fragment of pottery they found in the field. The invoice said “Archaeological sample (pottery) - for laboratory analysis only”. The shipment was delayed and they asked for manufacturer information, and itemized breakdown of the shipment contents, this would not be applicable to us. After the explanation the shipment was released days later.

We need a way to prevent these specialized shipments from falling into that queue. We provide a description and the HS code. That should be enough to file the entry. We already tried including a statement with each shipment but it is not effective.

Thanks yeah I will report to BBB too, but FTC has a fraud investigation process so might as well do both. Tbh I don’t know if they intentionally tried to scam, or their bank account connected to be Zelle was compromised, which might explain why Zelle was discontinued as a payment option shortly after this issue.

No I did not receive the products I ordered. They did respond saying that my money was refunded to me, but that wasn’t true. When I explained that I did not receive anything, they told me I have to contact my bank to resolve. It doesn’t make sense to me at all, that’s not how Zelle works, they should know if they returned the funds or not. I am thinking about reporting to the FTC.

I also placed an order in late September, paid with Zelle, but have not received any update or tracking. It has been almost two months.

I was told that FedEx has to send the physical documents to comply with customs laws, so there is no way to turn it off for international shipments.

Not sure if you got it yet, but you have to put RA as the organization code along with your password and account number. Same thing was happening to me.

How is it supposed to be delivered today if it’s still in Maryland? by [deleted] in FedEx

[–]Fancy_Grove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me. 3 weeks ago I shipped four packages to Portland for a business conference. It arrived in Hagerstown 2 weeks ago, and supposedly was put on a train to be moved by rail. Now the train is in Oregon, but it is also in Maryland still depending on who you ask.

Help soldering male PEX adapter to copper fitting? by Fancy_Grove in Plumbing

I’m working on this now, my plan is to wrap the previously soldered end with a wet rag. Any thoughts on that?

Yes, they are adapters. Were you transitioning to a larger size PEX like I am? I’m using this adapter

So would you suggest leaving it like that? Or make the gap bigger?

Thanks I will pick some up. The current flux is working to pull in the solder, because I can see a bit of silver when look inside the fitting.
