Does USPS have the equivalent of UPS MY CHOICE?? I signed up for a USPS account but do not see this option anywhere. Thanks peeps!!!

 
call them and they wll email you what to do, that is what i did..

however for me it doesnt work because i usually dont get atn number till right before the delivery

 
I get email notifications when a package is moving but I have to know the # first unlike UPS that tracks by name and/or address on the label.

 
they send me text messages with every movement of package, from label  created to sorting facility to out for delivery. Ya just gotta sign up for the notifications. Had 2 text from them this morning giving location and out for delivery.

 
Wish my express pack was moving.  It was supposed to be delivered 7/17 by noon but TN shows only that it left origin hub on 7/16 and that's it.  Hopefully its just a scanning problem and the package shows up today.  First time I've had a vendor ship via  USPS and there's a delay, nice.

That carrier has the absolute worse tracking system ever invented. I have the same problem and package arrived one day late.

 
But do you need the tracking number first? I want to know if a label has been made for my address, before it has shipped. Like brown and purple. I cannot see where to sign up for this service....

Hi there. You do need the tracking number first. The Postal Service does not offer a tracking service like UPS My Choice that I am aware of.  We use the Postal Service at work and ship thousands of packages. I've never seen that service offered. The only way you can get tracking updates is if you know the tracking number ahead of time. The USPS does not email or text you when a label has been created or a package has been sent to you unless the shipper has that service built into their shipping program (ex. Stamps.com). The only way you can get a tracking number is from the sender / shipper.

Once you do have your tracking number you can sign up for tracking updates from the Postal Service via email or text. You can sign up on the USPS website. On the main page of the USPS website on the left hand side there is a Tracking Box.  Put in your Tracking Number. It will pull up your tracking details. On the side it gives you the option to put in your email or phone number to get tracking updates. 

I hope this helps! If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask or PM me.  /default_smile.png  /default_smile.png

 
They do offer a service, it is called MyUSPS.com and you can sign up no their website.

Wow, thanks for letting us know! I even asked our mail carrier who picks up all of our packages and she told me the USPS did not offer a service like that. Glad to see they do offer this service!  /default_smile.png

I signed up for this but even after a label was created there was no email update or text alert indicating a package for me was going to be shipped.  I still had to wait to get TN from the vendor so there's no real benefit from this service if your just tracking a shipment.

  5. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 lol I am actually surprised it is a real ID. I needed those documents because my license had been expired for over a year and I had to start all over. Nothing was in the system. It was a huge mess. I had no clue I was signing up for Real ID. They asked me for the exact same documents that I needed for a State ID Card.
  6. S @ soupson: bless your heart buddy. no sense of grammar or proper insults/jokes. you need this place in ways i can’t comprehend
  7. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: Sweet Ol' Me asked about Real ID, Stoup. Are you responsive to emails ? LMAO
  8. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: I smell some Stoup. Is Stoup's on ?
  9. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda You win. I am lost. Thought you were surprised your license was a Real ID, now you say you provided those items.
  10. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda I was under the impression that you'd need all of the points to get a real ID . I'd check it's validity if you're gonna fly domestic any time soon, just to make sure. Not to tell you what to do, sorry -
  11. B @ bigblueallda: @drjimmy1964 In my state to get a Real ID, I need SS card, Birth Certificate and two proofs of residency. Which I am positive I had to provide to get a new ID when it had been expired.
  12. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @Turbo259 advertising - putting in writing for example an negative action to show they are guilty prior to taking action.
  13. B @ bigblueallda: I haven't flown in an airplane in 20 years lol. Can't recall the last government building I have been in either. According to the symbol it tells me I should have on my ID to make it a Real ID I do have one in my state

  16. drjimmy1964 @ drjimmy1964: @bigblueallda are you sure you have a Real ID ? I mean , they really want 6 points of proof and 1 for your addy and 1 for your SSN. Did you maybe get it done and forgot and flew out of the country or something ?

  18. S @ soupson: did anyone ask about real id or is sweet ol jimmy just rambling
  19. T @ Turbo259: @drjimmy1964 what did you mean by advertise? not gettin the verbiage, DM works if anything, just didnt understand
  20. B @ bigblueallda: {Visit your local Driver Service Bureau with the necessary documents: original birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of your state's residency. } I definitely provided this when I had to get a new ID when i let mine go expired too long maybe I unknowingly got one but I think it is pretty standard here.
