  Hi, I paid Canada Post $60.64 to Hold Mail Service effective from July 17 to August 16 2024. Hold Mail Service address is: 11448 93 ST NW, Edmonton, Alberta. T5G 1C4. My Notification number to Hold Mail Service is 98885561. During this period they should not deliver any mail under all names. I was going on vacation and this is why I paid for Hold Mail Service. Before I paid for the service online, I spoke to an agent in this regard and the agent also promised that no mails will be delivered within the time frame I will request. Unfortunately, one of the agent's from Canada Post delivered a parcel within the hold time and the sad part is the agent delivered the package to a wrong address. This is the tracking number 7321315597190324. I opened a case with Canada Post and the ticket number is 0157117684. One of the Supervisor's from Canada Post Edmonton called me and apologized that they made a mistake to deliver the package while it was still on Hold Mail and he also aplogized that the package was delivered to a wrong address. He asked me to call Customer Service on 1-888-267-1177 and ask for full refund. When I called them no one is trying to help me out. They asked to call back the supplier and create a case item never delivered. When I contacted the seller, upon checking the tracking number 7321315597190324 on Canada Post, the seller said, the item has been delivered. The seller also said they don't care the item delivered to the correct address or not, that is something Canada Post has to deal with not the seller. So the Canada Post Customer Service agents don't try to help me out here. I request Better Business Bureau to please look into my complain, Canada Post is at fault, I need my full refund of $60.64 and $17.66 for the items lost or delivered to a wrong address. The total payment I made was $78.30. I have attached necessary documents in this case for you to consider. Thank you.

  I am rejecting this response because: I attached the letter I sent back to the Ombudsman's email to me. I put all my remarks and I would like to get an answer from those flaws/ faults of the process of Canada Post regarding my case ticket. It is clearly detailed there that they have to return to me my parcel or refund me the value of my not delivered parcel which is $3,900 in cad.

  Complaint: 21659940
  
  I am rejecting this response because: I sent a letter as response to the letter to me of Ombudsman. I put my remarks there especially these 2 things: (1) Why my parcel was not returned to me it should be returned to me within 30 business days. Canada Post is responsible sending  back to the sender the parcel if receiver was not able to get it within the allowed time. (2) There was no delivery notice card left. 

  It is unfair for the consumer that Canada Post will just say that there were no further scans happened to my parcel as its clear that my case is a Canada Post process issue.

  Confusion in my label was not my fault as there was no any "return" when I created the label. This is 100% and clearly Canada Post's fault.

  I attached here the letter I sent back to the Ombudsman. I will need a response to my remarks / questions.

  This is so unfair to me as the consumer. Canada Post is 100% responsible for it. I will understand if it got lost in different way but it was clearly went back to the depot and Canada Post is not making an effort to look for my parcel and just tagging it lost because of the timeline. That is so unfair to my end. Clearly showing investigation happened was not complete and just to clear this case it will be tagged as investigation is done.

  Canada post's drivers do not attempt to deliver packages, especially the ones that require signature by the receiver of the package. They simply say that the attempt was made and no one was available to receive the package, so the package needs to get picked up. I was expecting a package on March 25th 2024, therefore I stayed home to be available to receive the package. The company did not attempt to deliver the package, and simply said that I was not available, so I have to go pick the package up ( a heavy coffee table). This time they did not even bother leaving a notice card. I have taken photos of the front door and mail room few minutes after they said I was not available as a proof that no one attempted any deliveries. I tried to resolve the issue with their agent, but I was told that they do not do re-delieveries, which is false, as they never attempted to deliver the package in the first place. They need to be hold accountable for their untruthful actions.

  Date: 2024-03-21 Paid: $34.86 and was told at Canada Post that my package would be delivered the next day. When the person I sent package to said it had still not been delivered I went to tracking website & was told it won’t be delivered until March 25, 2024 = Monday. I then chatted with automated person online tonight who did not help at all to get package delivered as per what I was told. I would never pay over $30 for a package it not delivered 1 day service.

  Hi, I made an order and paid for signature confirmation. I left clear instructions to call the buzzer and deliver the package to unit 712. I pay for this service and enter clear instructions because I am disabled. The delivery person came and didn’t bother coming up to 712 or even call the buzzer. They simply left the notice card downstairs and left. I called Canada Post to notify them of this and they were very nice. They assured me someone will contact me and redeliver the package. I was pleased with this. However, today, the next day, I got a call from a rude “supervisor” who basically told me that Canada Post will not come up to my unit and that I need to come down to get it next time. I explained that I paid for the signature confirmation and left clear instructions because I have a disability and that Canada Post has followed them for 5 years now. He did not care and said too bad. I asked him for his name but he REFUSED to identify himself. What kind of customer service is this??? Unprofessional “supervisors” who know they’re doing something wrong so they’re scared to identify themselves? If it helps, he spoke French and called me from ** ***** ********* ** ******** ****** ** *****************

  I appreciate your resolution however I rejected this because I want to make sure this “depot supervisor” will be held accountable for the complete disrespect he showed to myself and my disability. I do not have any reassurance that this person, who refused to identify himself, will be held accountable. Please let me know what will be done about this.

  I was shipping and item with Canada post from Ontario to Calgary under tracking ****************. My item went missing during transit and Canada post refused to issue any kind of replacement or compensation for losing my item because their excuse is additional insurance was not purchased. Regardless of this, my item was not suppose to be lost in the first place and now they are wiping their hands of any responsibility or wrong doing and I'm out of pocket $1800. They lost my louis vuitton bag I was shipping to a company called *** ** **** in Calgary for consignment Account of events Shipped on Dec 13 2023. Item was showing in transit Dec 14 then showed up on Dec 20 2023 as transportation delay. Open a ticket was told I will have a resolution around end of January after asking me to provide details of content etc. Finally get a reply today saying I'll be refunded $33 dollars for the shipping. Canada post now wants to wipe their hands of any wrong doing and further victimize the victim here by saying we can't help you. How is it fair that I now have to suffer this loss with no sense of care? Shipping is not cheap with Canada post. Canada post should have their own Insurance cost embedded into the fee and not the customer having to pay this. And using this as excuse to not compensate customers when they lose their items. I am looking for compensation of my item that I shipped which regardless of insurance being purchased it was Entrusted to canada post for safe delivery. I don't think it's fair I am being left to dealt with this huge loss when I did not lose the item and almost being told tuff luck cause you didn't buy insurance. Seems my items was likey stolen if I had to guess cause it was during December Christmas month and it went missing within Canada post four walls, their posession. I would like at least some money back for my bag and not just the $33 dollar shipping cost. It's a 2500 dollar bag and it was being sent for consignment of $1800. I was not even given any explanation as to what happened to my item. My bag didn't get up an walk away. Who took it?

  I am rejecting this response because I have already reached out to the Office of the Ombudsman at Canada Post - File Number ******** and they were not able to help, again I got the same reply that because no extra insurance was purchased they cannot refund me for my lost item. I've done my best to reach out for some resolution and keep getting push back unfortunately. I'm simply looking for some type of compensation to cover my loss. If the item was cheap this wouldn't hurt so much but I'm stuck with not having my item and the value associated with it

  Canada post consistently refuses to deliver parcels to my address or even to my community mail box. on countless occasions Canada post will mark my parcels as "delivery attempted" (as shown when tracking numbers are viewed online) when no attempt to deliver has been made at all and the package has likely never left the post office, they will then write a "pick up slip" and write lies on it claiming the package "requires a signature" or "would not fit in community mailbox" when neither of these are true following that they will wait several days sometimes even more than a week to deliver this slip to my community mailbox informing me that i must go retrieve my parcel from the post office which is just under a half an hour drive away, the hours of this post office (St.Andrews NS) are 10am-3:30pm mon-fri meaning i must take time off of work and drive there, why am i paying for shipping when i must go acquire my own package? to make matters worse they will refuse to hand over parcels if you do not have the "pick up slip" which again they will not deliver to you until many days after the slip has been filled out (date is marked on slip). i always use different couriers when given the option but often times my packages still end up in the hands of this post office and i am forced to lose wages and spend money traveling. if i am paying money to have packages delivered to a certain address those packages need to be delivered to that address or my money should be refunded. if the employees are able to close at 3:30pm surely they have enough time to deliver packages to their intended address, even if not the post office should be open saturday / sunday aswell so working class people are actually able to get their packages without losing wages. if i am paying shipping to fees to say ***** or another company who will actually deliver my package and it gets transferred to canada post and they refuse delivery i should be refunded the cost of shipping.

   Canada Post charges for a service that cannot or does not want to provide, which is fraud.
