The real problem with dupe labels is that UPS just doesnt care enough about it to do anything to fix it. Same old bandaid approch mentioned by everyone. NOT one person asked how these pkgs make it through intial sort without the label being caught as a dupe, then sorted at destination and scanned in and assigned a PAS label (again) without being detected.
Why hasnt UPS figured out a way to catch these shipper thieves in the sort process? How does the system allow itself to assign a pas label to a duplicate label in the first place? Why isnt the dupe caught, and a new 1z assigned to the pkg and the customer charged? Regardless of whether or not they were banded together and separated, once that happened, they are two pkgs. Banded pkgs are NOT allowed in our system in the first place, but NOBODY has the balls to tell AVON to stop doing it.
There are many shipper cheats in our system and rather than find them, UPS would rather waste its time worrying about 2 minutes between stops.
Yep they have bigger fish to fry....their cheating no good workforce..
The most common types of cheats with multiple labels are multi pkgs going to the same address, nobody checks them begining with the pu driver and continuing to the delivery driver where "They" have to deal with it.
IF revenue is such a hot issue, then maybe the IE geeks can figure out a way to detect this problem at the pickup origin or at origin point at hub and correct it then. Until then, we will continue to place bandaids on a million dollar cut.
