UPS question

[Mayfriday0529]

Anyone know how often UPS updates the information on a package?

Do they do them early in the morning and late at night only?

I only wish they indicated the name of the person and the location of each time they put a dent in my package. Now that would be a service i would pay extra for from those UPS only vendors.

I've never had a damaged package from them yet, although I currently have a late one.

AFAIK, it happens instantly everytime it is scanned.

Well if you keep using them you definitely will...

They have a way with cardboard... they create crushed boxes and holes when there's no need, all in the name of art.

So you get an amazingly complex riddle every time you get a UPS shipped box... just don't expect your "goodies" inside to survive the sculpting process.

they do it asap... their little big button calculator has real time acess to the servers?

As soon as I say that it happens. Got my first damaged UPS package today.

hmm I never got my UPS packages damaged... from verizon modem... to my case.... perfect!!!!

They are scanned every time they enter and leave a facility, and several times within the facility. The information is realtime AFAIK.

I think they have about a 50% hit rate as far as being able to locate something. At least from my experience with them.

This item i bought has not been updated like in two days and it still doesnt have even an estimated day of arrival.

 

[Mayfriday0529]

Ahhh three days without any updates...

Yes, the truck has a comunication cradle where the "calculator" goes, it uploads it to a satellite.
