[QUOTE="BrownSuit, post: 519689, member: 14437"] This is very true and a good distinction. On some agreements with Customer's FedEx is actually using a letter rate regardless of weight, but it's very uncommon and requires special pricing. The UPS side as was mentioned in other threads has become messy a little due to increased efforts by Revenue Recovery. Items such as CD's, Paychecks (Large numbers), large amounts of paper, are getting ding'd more commonly at the 1# rate these days. The shipper can call 800 and request a credit, but most of the time . . . I realize that we have to maintain profitability and revenue during this difficult time, but it seems that by increasing our revenue policing we are just alienating customers. See above, if I remember correctly, no weight limit does [B]not[/B] apply to 2DA. Those packages get billed at actual if over 1#. That may have changed recently or I may be off base. [/QUOTE]
