[QUOTE="UpstateNYUPSer(Ret), post: 306714, member: 12570"] Tracking 1Z's is nothing new. My center is 1/2 hour from the Canadian border so we have a lot of freight forwarding companies which, for those who may not know, prepare the documents necessary for the packages to go through Customs/Douanes. A cottage industry has sprung up in which these companies hire people to spend 8 hours a day tracking 1Z's. The 1Z's of shipments are provided to these people and they input them in to a computer to determine if we did our job or not and, if not, they notify the requesting company who in turn requests a refund. This is one of the reasons that the tracking function on ups.com has been changed to facilitate only 25 tracking numbers at a time and that the use of the tracking system is for personal use only--they have added a "Terms and Conditions" statement to the tracking function that says that you will use it for personal use only and will not use it for commercial purposes. These people track shipments for all of the major carriers and, from what I have been told, it was quite profitable. I usually have at least 2-3 customers per day who tell me they knew I was going to be there today because they had tracked it online. I also have at least 2-3 per day who told me I should have been there the day before as they had tracked it online and wanted to know what "rescheduled delivery" meant. I tell them 1-800-742-5877.
