The stonewalling continues
I like to be charitable. I like to believe people. I like to trust people when they tell me something. This, perhaps, is why I find myself in the situation today where the Airport Postal Outlet has only two business days left to live, and yet we have no meaningful answers from Canada Post or […]
Some “accommodation” from Canada Post
I’ve received the following email from an Airport Postal Outlet customer. Again, my response is below his email. Date: Wed, 27 May 2009 11:46:29 -0700 To: Save the APO From: <DELETED> Subject: Save-the-APO Good Morning, Craig. I just received a telephone call from Xxxxx Xxxxxxx at Canada Post. It seems they will be accommodating me […]
Email response from Canada Post, May 27th
I’ve had the following response from Canada Post. My reply is below it.

Email from Canada Post
Seems Canada Post has taken notice of this website (as I hoped they would, of course), as I’ve received an email from the Manager, Western Zone, C&D Operations, Metro Vancouver. Hopefully I’ll have something new and coherent here soon.

One thing is clear to me: The people I have been […]
Still some weirdness

Missing box numbers
Since I set this up I’ve had one person tell me that they couldn’t log in. It turns out that I didn’t know about that person’s box number, so hadn’t created a user name for them. In creating the users based on box numbers, I used the Canada Post postal code directory, and that person’s […]
Blog Anomalies
Having spent hours setting this up, I’m seeing some odd anomalies that may necessitate reinstalling everything. If that has to happen I’ll do it on the weekend. In the meantime, please sign any posts or comments in some way to give us an idea of who you are, as that doesn’t appear to happen by […]
Notes from Conversations with Canada Post
Later today (Friday) I’ll post the notes I’ve made based on my conversations with Canada Post. I’ve just run out of time to do it right now. However, in the meantime, if any of you have any information that could shed some light on this situation, please feel free to post. As it says in […]
