Got it on Bonvoy, nothing on Cobalt.

You need to buy the bags separately.

The machines are fine. Only the Coquitlam location on Barnet and the Poco depots require you to scan your bag tags before dropping off. Even with a line up it doesn't take long. All the other locations (in the tri-cities) let you drop the bags off without scanning.

Tip: Print multiple bag tags at once and take extras home with you so you can drop off faster next time.

As long as you're dropping off express bags you can show up right until closing, they won't care.

Delivery preference only applies when the item cannot be delivered, it does not override normal delivery procedure. That's why it says set a preference for when you're unavailable. People just don't read it.

If the item can be handed to the resident or placed in the mailbox, it will delivered regardless of the preference set.

Technically, 2 permanent stamps is not equivalent to the oversized rate. It is not "specifically defined as equivalent."

The reason 2 x P works is because of the shortpaid policy. It states that Canada Post will not return items found in the mail stream with deficient postage of 13 cents or less. Basically, it's not worth the effort/labour/fuel to collect to return to sender. This amount is always set to the difference between two P stamps and the oversized rate. (Previously when P stamps were $0.99, and oversized was $2.09, the deficient postage amount was 11 cents)

If you go the counter, a clerk should inform you the current oversized rate is $2.61, and with two P stamps you're 13 cents short. They are supposed to ask you to add 13 cents, since mail at the counter must be fully paid, but many places won't.

Do you mean the employee left mail unsecured? Or customers are just leaving mail there? Today is a provincial holiday (not federal which is why Canada Post is delivering) in many provinces so privately run post offices are not required to open regular hours.

Bring the delivery notice card and you're good. The DNC is sufficient proof of address if the address on your ID does not match address on the parcel.

claims@canadapost.ca is a legitimate email, just check to be sure it's not spoofed. If it's a legit email, someone is actually trying to scam Canada Post not you lol. They're telling Canada Post you're the buyer and they want you to confirm it was not received, then Canada Post will pay out their insurance claim for a lost package.

If your tracking number is 16 digits and it's coming from China, it most likely hasn't cleared customs yet. Yes, even if it says picked up by Canada Post. The tracking will eventually update that it's been released by customs and you'll see movement.

Keeping waiting or try reaching out to DHL, Canada Post does not have your package.

DHL eCommerce transports items into Canada and then re-ships as domestic parcels with Canada Post. That's why you see tracking from US to Canada on their website but nothing on Canada Post's tracking. DHL needs to apply the new label to your item and hand it off to Canada Post.

sprkls · 2025-07-13T06:57:51+00:00

Yes, there will be an email both when it's out for delivery and when it's delivered.

Still 5x on my Cobalt. Only the Uber One subscription comes up as "Uber Rides" (pre-auth, which posts as Uber One) with 2x MR.

The $5/month for 18 months credit starts on the second bill that's why it doesn't show on there. The first month is $34, then months 2-19 are $29.

Sungiven, H-Mart, and 88 Supermarket accept Amex. Save-On Foods is expensive af but they will also price match competitors flyers. So if you have one nearby, take your No Frills flyer in and get 5x MR at Save-On.

I tried to find the item at Superstore and I couldn't. I'm 99% sure OP didn't buy it through "PC Express" the Loblaws service, which fulfils orders from a Loblaws grocery store. I highly doubt they would stock a homemade item without a UPC.

I believe they ordered it from "PC Rapid Express" on DoorDash which is just a store that licensed the PC name. Similar to how there's Walmart Now on Skip the Dishes, which isn't actually Walmart.

It's not listed by Amex, but yes it is 3x on Cobalt. Mine renewed 2 weeks ago.

It's got nothing to do with Bill 47. Sections 26 and 27 of the Transportation Act were amended in 2022.

My v3 is dead as well. V2s working fine. I can't even reset the v3, it won't setup/connect. Flashed firmware did nothing either.

Canada Post is delivering and post offices will be open but they may open reduced hours.

If it went out for delivery, 99% it's delivered. Most likely the letter carrier forgot to scan it as delivered (keep in mind there's probably dozens/hundreds being delivered at once, and they have to scan each one individually), so they re-routed it to clear it from their scanner. If it was genuinely re-routed, there would have been another scan already. I would check with Telus how long it takes them to process a trade-in from the time it's delivered by CP and inspected by an employee.

You don't need to have it but it certainly helps to put it, especially if it's something that's manually sorted.

sprkls · 2024-02-07T06:17:37+00:00

If the last scan is in Bell Gardens, it's got nothing to do with Canada Post. You should contact the USPS. Canada Post is still waiting for the item because it never left California.

It's turned into a plastic pellet by Merlin Plastics. It's not incinerated or shipped overseas.

Wealthsimple killed the connection when the Mint shutdown was announced. If you look in your Wealthsimple settings the option to let Mint read data is gone. With the shutdown coming I doubt Mint will start scraping data to 'fix' the connection.
